TP General - How to remove PC Cards, ISA Cards and PCI Cards
Applicable to: World-Wide
This document contains information on how to remove PCMCIA/ISA/PCI Cards.
Removing PCMCIA Cards:
1. Remove any covers from the PCMCIA slots. If the cover does not remove easily, the security bar maybe in place. Open either the ThinkPad keyboard or remove the cover from the Dock. Look closely at the slots and if there is a small metal bar pull that straight up and out. Another type of lock is a faceplate that is external to the ThinkPad, remove the spacer that is internal and then slide the outside faceplate towards the front of the ThinkPad and then off.
- SelectaDock 1- make sure the key is in the vertical position.
