Setting Up the Computer

Follow the steps shown on the setup poster to

set up the computer in your work area. Then read the topics in this section that describe how to turn on the computer for the first time, and finish the registration process.

After registering, install any software programs that came on CDs or DVDs included in the computer box (select models only).

Note: Some programs come preinstalled on the PC. Before installing a program, check to see if it is already installed on your system.

When you have completed these steps, you may add any printer, scanner, camera, or other peripheral equipment you have for your system. Many peripherals, external devices, memory, and add-in cards are Plug and Play.

Note: Plug and Play describes the ability to add or remove components without any special procedures such as resetting jumpers and testing for conflicts. When you add or remove a peripheral, the PC recognizes it and obtains the best driver for the device.
