Chapter 1. Arranging your workspace To get the most from your computer, arrange both the equipment you use and your work area to suit your needs and the kind of work you do. Your comfort is of foremost importance, but light sources, air circulation, and the location of electrical outlets also can affect the way you arrange your workspace. Comfort Although no single working position is ideal for everyone, here are a few guidelines to help you find a position that suits you best.
Where it is impossible to avoid reflections or to adjust the lighting, an antiglare filter placed over the screen might be helpful. However, these filters might affect the clarity of the image on the screen; try them only after you have exhausted other methods of reducing glare. Dust buildup compounds problems associated with glare. Remember to clean your monitor screen periodically using a soft cloth moistened with a nonabrasive liquid glass cleaner. Air circulation Your computer and monitor produce heat.
Chapter 2. Setting up your computer Before you begin, make sure you set up your computer in the best possible work area that suits your needs and the kind of work you do. For more information, refer to Chapter 1, “Arranging your workspace,” on page 1. Note: Read “Important safety information” on page v before you set up your computer. The precautions and guidelines will help you work safely. Connecting your computer Use the following information when connecting your computer.
If your computer does not have a voltage selection switch, it is designed to operate only at the voltage provided in the country or region where it was originally purchased. Continue with step 2. 2. Your keyboard cable might have a standard keyboard connector 1 or a Universal Serial Bus (USB) connector 2 . Connect the keyboard cable to the appropriate keyboard connector. Note: Some models will have keyboards with a fingerprint reader.
v If you have a digital video interface (DVI) monitor, connect the cable to the connector as shown. Note: Your computer must have an adapter installed that supports the DVI monitor. 5. If you have a modem, connect the modem using the following information. E ON PH PH ON E E ON PH LINE PH LIN E ON E LIN LIN 1 2 3 E E This illustration shows the two connections on the back of the computer that are needed to set up your modem.
6. If you have audio devices, attach them using the following instructions. For more information about speakers, see steps 7 and 8. 1 Audio line-in 2 Audio line-out 3 Microphone 4 Headphone This connector receives audio signals from an external audio device, such as a stereo system. This connector sends audio signals from the computer to external devices, such as powered stereo speakers.
b. Connect the speakers to the computer. 9. Connect any additional devices that you have. Your computer might not have all connectors that are shown. 1394 1394 1 USB 2 Serial 3 S-video 4 Parallel 5 Ethernet 6 MIDI/joystick 7 IEEE 1394 Use this connector to attach a device that requires a USB connection, such as a keyboard, mouse, scanner, printer, or personal digital assistant (PDA).
Note: Refer to the Access Help online help system for more information about connectors. See “Access Help” on page 62 for instructions on how to open the online help system. Turning on power Turn on the monitor and other external devices first, and then turn on the computer. When the power-on self-test (POST) is finished, the logo window closes. If your computer has preinstalled software, the software installation program starts.
v Record your computer machine type, model, and serial number. If you need service or technical support, you will probably be asked for this information. For further information, see the safety and warranty information that is provided with your computer. Updating your operating system Microsoft makes updates available for various operating systems through the Microsoft Windows Update Web site.

When using Product Recovery discs on Windows XP, you are given the option to enter the Rescue and Recovery workspace and choose from a variety of recovery operations. When using Product Recovery discs on Windows Vista, you are prompted to insert your Product Recovery discs and are guided through the process of restoring from original factory contents only.
v v v v v On a protected area of your hard disk On a second hard disk installed in your computer On an externally attached USB hard disk On a network drive On recordable CDs or DVDs (a recordable CD or DVD drive is required for this option) After you have backed up your hard disk, you can restore the complete contents of the hard disk, restore selected files only, or restore only the Windows operating system and applications.
multiple partitions on your hard disk, you have the option to restore the factory contents to the C: partition and leave the other partitions intact. Because the Rescue and Recovery workspace operates independently from the Windows operating system, you can restore the factory contents even if you cannot start the Windows operating system.
To create rescue media, do the following: 1. Open the Start menu from the Windows desktop, select All Programs, click ThinkVantage, then click Create Recovery Media. 2. In the Rescue Media area, select the type of rescue media you want to create. You can create rescue media using a CD, USB hard drive, or a second internal hard disk drive. 3. Click OK. 4. Follow the instructions on the screen.
2. Insert the Recovery Repair diskette into diskette drive A. 3. Turn on the computer and follow the instructions on the screen. Note: If the repair operation finishes without error, you will be able to access the Rescue and Recovery workspace by repeatedly pressing the F11 key while you restart your computer. When you hear beeps or see a logo screen, release the F11 key. You will also be able to access the Windows environment after the repair operation finishes.
Setting a rescue device in the startup sequence Before you start the Rescue and Recovery program from a CD, DVD, USB hard disk drive, or any external device, you must first change the startup sequence in the Setup Utility. To view or change the startup sequence, do the following: 1. With the computer off, repeatedly press and release the F1 key while you turn on the computer. 2. When the logo screen appears, or you hear a series of beeps, release the F1 key. 3.
