Step

8.

Attaching

the

faceplates

This

option

package

includes

two

faceplates

that

conform

to

the

curved

design

of

certain

computers.

If

your

computer

has

a

curved

design, you can

attach

one

of

the

included

faceplates

so

that

the

front

of

the CD-RW drive

matches

the

exterior

cabinet.

Choose

the

faceplate

that

best

fits

your

computer,

and

attach

it

after

you

have mounted

the

CD-RW drive in

the

appropriate bay.

Note:

Depending

on

the

exterior

design

of

your

computer,

you may need to attach

the

faceplate

before

placing

the

cover back

on

your

computer.

Step

9.

Updating

your

computer

configuration

After

you

have

completed

the

hardware

installation,

restart

your

computer. Usually,

the

configuration-setup

information

screen

is

displayed. If

this

screen

is

not

displayed,

check

your

about

IDE

port

might

not

display the CD-RW

drive information when

you

review

the

You

still

can use the CD-RW drive

in

this

situation

if

you

have

properly completed

the
