How do you replace a bad PCMCIA card slot on a laptop?
111034
The only way to replace a bad pcmcia slot on a laptop is to have the laptop shipped to the manufacturer where they will replace the entire motherboard. When something like a pci/pcmcia slot goes bad on a motherboard, the only way you can not void your warranty is to send it in and get it replaced by the manufacturer. This is no different than if the power port on your laptop broke off of the motherboard so that you could no longer charge the battery or plug it into a wall outlet.\n\nUnfortunately this will probably cost you some money (depending on your warranty, it could all be covered, but most likely you will have to pay shipping at the very least).

First you must have Windows 98 SE or higher.  For Windows 2000 you must have service pack 3 or higher installed (right-click My Computer -> Properties).\n\nIf it's a desktop, purchase a USB 2.0 PCI card.  Remove the case cover, remove the faceplate behind any PCI slot, insert the card, and replace the retaining screw.  PCI slots are usually white with a divider about 2/3 of the way back from the faceplate.\n\nFor laptops, purchase a USB PCCard (or PCMCIA).  Insert into the PCCard slot (usually on the side).\n\nVoila, USB 2.0.

Basically, *you* can't fix it. Take it to a *laptop* repair shop.  It sounds like one or more of the polerization filters may be damaged, but that is not something easily replaced....

This could be complicated but could usually be done with PCMCIA USB adapter (if your laptop has standard PCMCIA slots) like the one found at http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?dest=9999999997&product_id=3942788&sourceid=1500000000000001827170 .

so you can later purchase specific PCMCIA cards, like networking, phone, flash card readers, wireless cards, and a slew of others out there IF your laptop doesn't come with all that you want or it fails and you can plug in an external card there to replace it.

Sorry but you can't because each one has different requirement towards the system such as DMA, IRQ, usages, also because the difference of the specifications.\nSo i suggest you to go to the site of the make, the support center then download the suitable driver to your card. Also visit the below site, it's great and has drivers for all kind of the computer peripherals, old and new. \nI hope my answer is enough, otherwise please feel free to contact my thru my email in my profile.

Reseat the memory in the slot, or try switching them around. Sounds like a bad connection.

Trying going into the Control Panel, clicking on the System icon, and going under the Hardware tab.  Click on the Device Manager.  Look for the USB Devices section in the list of hardware.\n\nExpand the listing by clicking on the + in front of USB Devices.  Right click on each USB device on the list (as we don't know which one is causing the problem) and uninstall them all.\n\nReboot the Laptop and it should reinstall all the USB devices.  Have you have not deleted the drivers, it should have no problems finding and reinstalling them all.\n\nAfter that, if the USB port still keeps crashing the laptop, you are looking at a hardware issue and will need to have it serviced by a professional.

First of all is it one of the following:\n - Pc slot card correctly and fulling snapped in. If the card is a hair out of the socket inside it wont work.\n- Make sure the card is not broken, cracked, fried.\n- Uninstall the card properties and reboot. This should detect new hardware. I can offer more advice if the above has been done.\n\nDoes it come with software? how old and what brand is the card?  The older ones have floppy disks for software... the new ones are plug and play requiring no software.\n\n\nThen i would bring it to a repair shop... but not really.\nIt is better to find someone that knows computers and have a friend do it.  Repair shops are expensive and theres no promise that they can or will fix it.

Go to gateway's website and order a replacement power supply from them.  \n    Once you receive the part, you'll need a phillips head screwdriver to remove the screw to the side of your tower. then you may remove the side cover of the tower. \nNow comes the tricky part.  Remove ALL power connections in the case that are attached to the power supply (connections to the motherboard, cdrom, floppy, case fan, etc...)\nNow, you may use the phillips head screwdriver to remove the power supply.  It should be about 4 screws.\nYou may now install the new power supply by simply reversing the order in which you just used to uninstall the bad power supply.\n\nGood luck

A black plastic piece....?\nJust plain plastic, no connectors?\nFitted in the side of the computer, in a PCMCIA slot?\nI'm guessing that was a blank, "placeholder" card, just to fill the hole were your network adapter will go, when you get one.  Keeps the dust out.
