* - Note: Actual desktop PCs do not support ExpressCards satisfactory. Because Vector can currently guarantee the correct and reliable function of the CANcardXLe for notebooks only we strongly disadvice to use the card in desktop PCs. The CANcardXLe is currently not approved for using in desktop PCs.
