Special Features of Your Computer
Using the Memory Card Reader
(Select models only)
Your computer may come with a multi-format memory card reader (optional, select models
only). Digital cameras and other digital imaging devices use memory cards, or media, to
store digital picture files. The memory card reader can read from and write to a variety of
types of memory cards and the IBM Microdrive disk drive.
The card reader is accessible directly on the front of the computer. It has two or four
horizontal card slots which accept the media.
You can place media in one or more of the card slots and use each media
independently. Place only one piece of media in a slot at one time.
Each card slot has its own drive letter and icon. When you insert media, the display
label may change to the title of the media, if a title is available.
When you insert media, the Safely Remove Hardware window may appear. If it opens,
or if you open the Safely Remove Hardware window by mistake, click Close.
Memory card reader
The activity light (A) blinks to indicate that the computer is accessing the memory card to read
or write.
CAUTION: Do not click Stop in the Safely Remove Hardware window with
the USB Mass Storage Device selected. Doing so removes the operating
system recognition of the memory card reader from your computer, and
you must restart the computer to see the memory card reader again.
