Optical drive
Your computer may come with a CD-ROM, DVD-ROM, DVD/CD-RW combo,
DVD-Dual or DVD-Super multi drive. This drive is located on the front panel of
your computer. The CD drive allows you to play different types of compact disks
(CDs). The DVD drive allows you to play not only old CD-ROMs, CD-I disks, and
video CDs, but digital video disks (DVDs) as well. DVD-ROM is a type of disk
media with enough storage space for a full-length movie. The CD-RW, DVD-
Dual and DVD-super multi drive allow you to record or burn recordable and
rewritable disks.
CDs and DVDs, like diskettes, are also compact, lightweight and easy to carry
around. However, they are more delicate than diskettes and must be handled
with extra care.
To insert a CD or DVD into your computer's CD or DVD drive:
1. Gently push the Eject button located on the front panel.

When holding a disk, hold it by the edges to avoid leaving smudges
or fingerprints.

Taking care of your CDs and DVDs
•
Keep your disk in its case when not in use to avoid scratches or other
damage. Any kind of dirt or damage can affect the data on the disk, impair
the disk lens reader on the CD or DVD drive, or stop the computer from
successfully reading the disk.
•
•
•
When handling disks, always hold them by the edges to avoid smudges
or fingerprints.
When cleaning disks, use a clean, dust-free cloth and wipe in a straight line
from the center to the edge. Do not wipe in a circular motion.
Clean your CD or DVD drive periodically. You may refer to the Cleaning Kit
for instructions. Cleaning kits can be purchased in any computer or
electronics shop.
Hard disk
Your computer is pre-installed with a high-capacity Enhanced-IDE (E-IDE) hard
disk.
For instructions on how to upgrade or replace your hard disk, see:

Arranging a comfortable work area
Working safely and comfortably begins with the arrangement of your work
space and the proper use of equipment. For this reason, it is very important to
take time and think about how you are going to arrange your work area. Refer
to the diagram on the following page as you set up your system.
Here are some points to consider:
Adjusting your chair
Having the right kind of chair does not necessarily mean you'll be properly
supported. It is necessary to adjust your chair to fit your body. Proper body
posture will make you more comfortable and productive.
•
Avoid tilting your chair. If you have a chair that tilts, lock the tilt knobs so
that your chair will not tilt forward or backward while you are using your
computer.
•
•
Adjust your chair height in such a way that you can sit on it with your
thighs parallel to the floor and your feet resting flat on the floor.
Rest your body on the chair back. Your torso works harder to maintain
balance if you do not rest your body on the chair back.
Positioning your PC

3 Setting up your computer
Take note of the following when selecting a location for your computer:
•
Do not put your computer near any equipment that might cause
electromagnetic or radio frequency interference, such as radio
transmitters, televisions, copy machines or heating and air-conditioning
equipment.
•
•
Avoid dusty areas and extremes of temperature and humidity.
You may place your computer beside your desk or under your table, as
long as it does not block the space you need for working and moving.
Positioning your monitor
Place your monitor at a comfortable viewing distance, usually 50 to 60 cm away.
Adjust the display in such a way that the top of the screen is at or slightly below
eye level.
Positioning your keyboard
The location of the keyboard is a very important factor to your posture.
Placing it too far away will make your body lean forward, forcing you to sit
in an unnatural position. Placing it too high will add tension to your
shoulder muscles.
•
The keyboard should be placed just above your lap. Adjust the keyboard
height by flipping the folding stands located under the keyboard.
•
Keep your lower arms parallel to the floor as you type. Your upper arms
and shoulders should be relaxed. Then try typing with a light touch. If you
feel any shoulder or neck strain, stop for a while and check your posture.
•
Position your keyboard in front of your monitor. Putting your keyboard
beside your monitor will make you turn your head while you type which
could add tension to your neck muscles.
Positioning your mouse
•
•
•
The mouse should be placed on the same surface as your keyboard so that
you can reach it with ease.
Adjust its position to allow enough space for movement without making
you stretch or lean over.
Use your arm to move the mouse. Do not rest your wrist on the table when
moving the mouse.

Installation precautions
Before you install any computer component, we recommend that you read the
following sections. These sections contain important ESD precautions along
with preinstallation and post-installation instructions.
ESD precautions
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage your processor, disk drives, expansion
boards, and other components. Always observe the following precautions
before you install a computer component:
1
Do not remove a component from its protective packaging until you are
ready to install it.
2
Wear a wrist grounding strap and attach it to a metal part of the computer
before handling components. If a wrist strap is not available, maintain
contact with the computer throughout any procedure requiring ESD
protection.
Preinstallation instructions
Always observe the following before you install any component:
1
Turn off your computer and all the peripherals connected to it before
opening it. Then unplug all cables from the power outlets.
2
3
Open your computer according to the instructions on page 39.
Follow the ESD precautions described above before handling a

4 Upgrading your computer
Upgrading your computer
Certain components of your computer are upgradeable, such as the memory,
the hard disk, the CPU and the expansion cards. You need to observe the
"Installation precautions" on page 39 when installing or removing a computer
component. However, for safety purposes, we do not recommend that you
perform these upgrades yourself. If you want to replace or upgrade any of
these components, contact your dealer or a qualified service technician
for assistance.
Note: The mainboard model shown in the following figures may
not be exactly the same as the one found in your computer.
Installing additional memory
The four 240-pin sockets on the mainboard support Double Data Rate 2 (DDR2)
Synchronous Dynamic Random Access Memory (SDRAM)-type DIMMs. You may
install 128 MB, 256 MB, 512 MB or 1 GB DIMMs for a maximum memory capacity
of 4 GB.
The DDR2 DIMMs should work under 1.8 volts. You can install PC2 3200/DDR2
400, or PC2 4300/DDR2 533 modules in the DDR2 DIMM sockets. Contact your
dealer for qualified DIMM vendors.
Each DDR2 DIMM socket is independent from the other. This independence
allows you to install DDR2 DIMMs with different capacities to form
different configurations.
To remove a DDR2 DIMM
Note: The DDR2 DIMM has only one notch located on the center
of the module.
