This guide explains how to identify and use notebook hardware
features, including connectors for external devices, and provides
settings and procedures for managing notebook power and
security. It also includes power and environmental specifications,
which may be helpful when traveling with the notebook, as well
as instructions for obtaining system information and using setup
utilities to help detect, solve, and prevent problems.
