card), connect the appropriate cable to the card, not to the connector on the back

panel.

ensure that you do not place the computer too close to a wall or other storage

compartment that might prevent air circulation around the chassis. See your

Product Information Guide for more information.

computer, read the documentation that came with the device or software, or

contact the vendor to verify that the device or software is compatible with your

computer and operating system.

appropriate figures that follow the instructions.

NOTICE: Do not attempt to operate a PS/2 mouse and a USB mouse simultaneously.

Connect the keyboard and mouse.

NOTICE: Do not connect a modem cable to the network adapter connector.

Voltage from telephone communications can cause damage to the network adapter

Connect the modem or network cable.

the modem.

reinstall drivers for the devices that came

with your computer.

Your operating system product key label is
