NOTICE: To connect a network cable, first plug the cable in to the network wall jack and then plug it in to the computer.

11Connect your computer and devices to their electrical outlets, and then turn them on.

12When you restart your computer, enter system setup (see "System Setup" on page 178). On the setup screen go to the "Drives" section and under Diskette Drive set the value to "Internal only".

See the documentation that came with the floppy drive for instructions on installing any software required for the operation of the drive.

13Verify that your computer works correctly by running the Dell Diagnostics (see "Dell Diagnostics" on page 86).

NOTICE: Ensure the FlexBay knob is turned in the anticlockwise direction. Failure to heed can result in the knob being broken.

NOTE: If you have already installed an additional hard drive in the FlexBay and you want to replace it with a floppy drive, ensure that the FlexBay knob is rotated, anti clockwise, back to its default vertical position, see the illustration for "Installing a Hard Drive in the FlexBay" on page 134.
