Advanced Setup Guide

The HP PC

The HP minitower PC provides the following components and features:

System Board

•Enhanced IDE (Integrated Drive Electronics) controller with two channels on the PCI bus:

❒A primary IDE channel for two IDE hard disk drives.

❒A secondary IDE channel for an IDE CD-ROM drive or a IDE hard disk drive.

•Rear panel connectors:

❒1 mouse socket

❒1 keyboard socket

❒1 display connector

❒1 parallel port

❒2 serial ports

❒2 Universal Serial Bus (USB) connectors

•Keyboard/mouse controller and interface.

•Six memory module sockets for DRAM main memory, allowing installation of up to 192 MB.

•Depending on the model, the video memory will be either:

❒1 MB integrated on the system board, upgradeable to 2MB, or

❒4 MB of video memory on a Matrox Graphics Architecture (MGA)

Millennium II card.

The HP PC

•System ROM (using flash ROM technology) that can be easily updated with the latest firmware, using the Phlash.exe

program supplied with the firmware upgrade.

The system ROM contains:

❒The BIOS (system BIOS, video BIOS and low-option ROM).

❒The menu-driven Setup program with context-sensitive help

(in U.S. English only).

•Energy Star-compliant power management.

All PCs described in this manual have a power-saving capability in accordance with the Energy Star guidelines (U.S.

Environmental Protection Agency). Nevertheless, it is possible that some configurations (e.g. fully loaded multi-media

models) use slightly more than 30W in sleep mode, which is the limit required for obtaining the Energy Star label.

Inclusion of the Energy Star label indicates that your PC is Energy Star-compliant.

•HP PC Ergonomic Power Solution. This enables you to switch off your PC by clicking the Windows 95 Shut Down

command, and to switch it on by pressing the spacebar on your keyboard. In other words, you do not have to use the

ON/OFF button. The HP PC Ergonomic Power Solution therefore includes the HP Startkey keyboard.

•HP Off is a security feature that prevents the loss of data if the PC is accidentally switched off. If any open applications

are found with unsaved data, HP Off will ask if you wish to save them or not. If you choose to save the files, these will

then be safely closed and the shutdown procedure will continue, automatically switching off the power.

Backplane

•Six expansion card slots for the installation of:

❒Two 32-bit PCI (Peripheral Component Interconnect) cards

and four 16-bit ISA (Industry Standard Architecture) cards, or

❒Three 32-bit PCI cards and three 16-bit ISA cards.
