So there is this slot on the right side of my Dell Inspiron 9400. I believe it is called an "ExpressCard slot". Anyway, I popped it out, I don't even know how, and now I can't get the pop-out lever thing to go back in. Maybe the card holder thing won't go back in all the way, that's why this is happening. Okay so this isn't really urgent, but it's bothering the slightly obsessive-compulsive side of my brain a hell of a lot.Edited by Jellybones, 07 May 2007 - 09:50 PM.

Yeah, that's not that important.
If the plastic "card" is all the way in, just push the pin harder. On my family's laptop (Inspiron 2650, rather old) you have to push the pin somewhat firmly to get it back in. There's three positions the pin can be in: fully inside the computer, popped out fully, and resting between the two. The card should be either in or out, corresponding to whether the pin is in or out.
So yeah.
Push harder. -

Yeah I figured that out about 5 minutes after I posted this topic. I had already shut down my computer by then though.Yeah, that's not that important.

I kind of knew it wasn't important, but I do have a thing for hyperbole when it comes to this "Internet". -

A simple "That's what she said" would do. No last night. Or smiley. WAY TO FUCK IT UP.That's what she said last night.
