206 If Something Goes Wrong Resolving a hardware conflict The computer stops working (hangs) when you insert a PC Card. The problem may be caused by an I/O (input/output) conflict between the PCMCIA socket and another device in the system. Use Device Manager to make sure each device has its own I/O base address. See "Fixing a problem with Device Manager" on page 187 for more information. Since all PC Cards share the same socket, each card is not required to have its own address. Hot swapping (removing one PC Card and inserting another without turning the computer off) fails. Follow this procedure before you remove a PC Card: 1 Click the PC Card icon in the system tray. 2 Click Stop xxxx, where xxxx is the identifier for your PC Card. The operating system displays a message that you may safely remove the card. 3 Remove the card from the slot. The system does not recognize your PC Card or PCMCIA socket controller. 1 Make sure the computer is not in Standby mode. For more information, see "Using Stand by" on page 83. 2 Turn off the computer. 3 Connect the AC adapter and power cable. 4 Keep the computer plugged in for about three hours with the power turned off. The problem may also be caused by a conflict with any additional memory in your system. Removing a malfunctioning card and reinstalling it can correct many problems. For more information, see "Inserting PC Cards" on page 152.
