Setup
Follow the steps shown on the setup poster to
set up the computer in your work area. Then read
the topics in this section that describe how to turn
on the computer for the first time, and finish the
registration process.
After registering, install any software programs
that came on CDs or DVDs included in the
computer box (select models only).
Note:
Some programs come preinstalled on the PC.
Before installing a program, check to see if it
is already installed on your system.
When you have completed these steps, you
may add any printer, scanner, camera, or other
peripheral equipment you have for your system.
Many peripherals, external devices, memory,
and add-in cards are Plug and Play.

Plug and Play
describes the ability to add or
remove components without any special
procedures such as resetting jumpers and testing
for conflicts. When you add or remove a
peripheral, the PC recognizes it and obtains the
best driver for the device.
