Expanding the OmniBook

Using the External Module Bay

 

To remove or install the bay or module

 

For Windows 95 or Windows 98, if Agaté Tioman hot-swap software is installed, a plug-

 

in module icon appears at the right end of the taskbar. This software lets you disconnect

 

most plug-in modules without shutting down the computer. For a hard drive module, you

 

must shut down the computer.

 

Windows 2000 displays the Unplug or Eject Hardware icon at the right end of the taskbar

 

when a drive module is present.

 

 

CAUTION

If you are connecting or disconnecting a CD-ROM drive, DVD drive, or any other

 

type of drive, you must use the icon in the taskbar or shut down the computer—

 

otherwise, you could lose data.

 

Do not touch the metallic pins in OmniBook connectors, module connectors, or

 

cable connectors. Static electricity can damage internal components.
