531s memory card

Sep 9, 2009 8:22AM PDT

I want to use an SD memory card but can't figure out how to open the black front to access that area? This was my stepson's comp originally and am wondering if he missed something on the initial set up... TIA Hilda

card reader

Card readers are not standard equipment and must be ordered separately as an addon on a new computer. Yours might not have a reader. Open the Hardware Device Manager to see if there is a card reader listed. If not, you can get an external USB reader to add to your computer.
