HP DC5000 manual Getting Started

Getting Started

Reconfigure your computer after installing a non–plug and play expansion board or other option. See “Solving Hardware Installation Problems” for instructions.

Be sure that all the needed device drivers have been installed. For example, if you have connected a printer, you need to install a printer driver.

Remove all diskettes from your system before turning it on.

If you have installed an operating system other than the factory-installed operating system, check to be sure that it is supported on your system.

If your computer has multiple video sources (embedded, PCI, or AGP adapters) installed (embedded video on select models only) and a single monitor, the monitor must be plugged into the monitor connector on the source selected as the primary VGA adapter. During startup, the other monitor connectors are disabled; if the monitor is connected into one of these ports, it will not function. You can select the default VGA source in Computer (F10) Setup.

CAUTION: When the computer is plugged into an AC power source, voltage is always being applied to the system board. You must disconnect the power cord from the power source before opening the computer to prevent system board or component damage.
