When to Reconfigure the Computer System configuration is the process of specifying the devices and programs that make up a computer system. When you add or remove optional equipment, or add a second diskette drive, you must reconfigure the computer to recognize these changes. Windows 95 and Windows NT automatically recognize all Plug and Play devices installed. However, if the device is not a Plug and Play device or is not installed properly, follow these instructions: 1. Go to the Control Panel. 2. Select the Add New Hardware icon. 3. Follow the instructions on the screen. Serviceability Features The Compaq Deskpro 4000 and 6000 Series of Personal Computers include features that make it easier to upgrade or service your computer. Using the Quick Release Cover Latches The Quick Release Cover Latches located on the sides of the computer allow easy removal of the computer cover without the use of tools or thumbscrews. Slide the cover latches toward the front of the computer to unlock the cover. Slide the cover latches toward the back of the computer to secure the cover. The latches are labeled with locked and unlocked padlock icons to identify the position of the latches. CAUTION: Be sure the cover latches are securely fastened before lifting the computer.
