This section provides information about setting

up your Dimension desktop.

WARNING: Before you begin any of the

procedures in this section, read the

safety information that shipped with

your computer. For additional safety best

practice information, see the Regulatory

Compliance Homepage at

www.dell.com/regulatory_compliance.

Before Setting Up Your

Computer

When positioning your computer, ensure that

you allow easy access to a power source,

adequate ventilation, and a level surface to

place your computer.

Restricting airflow around your computer may

cause it to overheat. To prevent overheating

ensure that you leave at least 10.2 cm (4 inches)

at the back of the computer and a minimum of

5.1 cm (2 inches) on all other sides. You should

never place your computer in an enclosed

space, such as a cabinet or drawer when it is

powered on.

Setting Up Your Dimension Desktop

Connect the Display

Your computer has an integrated VGA connector. You can use this connector to connect to the

display.

NOTE: A DVI, HDMI, or an additional VGA connector may be available on your computer if you

purchased an optional discrete graphics card. For best picture quality, it is recommended that

you use the connector on the discrete graphics card to connect to the display.

You can purchase the DVI-to-VGA adapter, HDMI-to-DVI adapter, and additional HDMI or DVI cables

on the Dell website at www.dell.com.

Use the appropriate cable based on the connectors available on your computer and display. Refer to

the following table to identify the connectors on your computer and display.

NOTE: When connecting to a single display, connect the display to ONLY ONE of the connectors

on your computer.
