Setting Up Your Aspire Refer to the Aspire Easy Setup Poster included in your system box for details on how to set up your computer. Turning Your Aspire On and Off You have two options for turning your Aspire on and off. Your Aspire was designed for you with convenience in mind. The Quickstart option allows your computer to instantly turn on and off, without waiting for a long start-up time. If you like the traditional approach better, you can use it instead. Turning on your Aspire Note: Make sure that the AC master power switch located on the back of your system is in the ON position. Leave it ON at all times unless the system is being serviced. 1 • Press and release the monitor power button if it is not on or blinking already. 2 • Press and release the computer power button (Quickstart or traditional start). The monitor will begin displaying images after 5-10 seconds. The power button lights on the computer and monitor will be on. Note: If you previously used Quickstart OFF when you were done using your Aspire, your computer will return exactly where it was in just a couple of seconds. If you previously shut down Windows Millenium Edition (Me), your computer will take 2-3 minutes to start. 6 An Introduction to Your Aspire 7
