While the card can be removed with the computer running and Windows started (a  
process commonly referred to as “hot-plugging”), Windows does offer a “safe removal”  
feature that ensures that the card is inactive before it is removed from the CardBus slot.  
It is strongly recommended that you follow this procedure when removing the card from a  
computer to avoid data loss or equipment damage.  
To use the safe removal feature:  
1. Locate the hardware ejection icon in the System Tray (next to  
the clock).  
2. Left click the icon once to activate the device  
menu.

Controller from the list and click it once.

can be safely removed.
