If you want to use suspend mode and hibernation mode, change the properties of the CD-ROM drive as follows: 1. Click on the CD-ROM drive name under the CD-ROM; then click on the Properties button.

Using a PC Card with the Docking Station In the Windows 95, Windows NT, Windows 3. 1, or DOS environment, you need to install the PC Card support software after docking your computer to the docking station. If you have already installed the PC Card support software, uninstall it and then reinstall it after you dock your computer to the docking station. USB Connector Considerations For PCI Cards in the SelectaDock III Docking Station When the setting of the USB connector on your computer is enabled (the default setting), do not use a PCI Video Card and a PCI Network Card at the same time in the SelectaDock III docking station. Your system cannot start if both cards are inserted. For the USB Connector Setting on the SelectaDock III Docking Station Do not disable the USB connector on the SelectaDock III. If you disable it, the system might hang during a hot- or warm-dock or undock operation.

If this occurs, do a hot-unplug and -plug operation for the USB device.
