Add-On Devices Using Plug-In Modules Using Plug-In Modules CAUTION You can use any compatible plug-in module with your computer's module bay, such as: • CD-ROM, CD-RW, DVD, or similar drive. • Zip drive. • Second hard drive. • Floppy disk drive. • Secondary battery. Never remove a plug-in module without first notifying Windows-see "To replace a plug-in module" on page 74. Otherwise, you could lose data. To install hot-swap support (Windows 98) If your computer uses Windows 98, it also includes "hot-swap" software that lets you swap most modules in the computer's plug-in bay without needing to shut down and reboot the computer. If a BayManager icon is displayed in the taskbar, hot-swap support is already installed. If the icon is not present, you can install the software as follows: • Click Start, Programs, Softex BayManager, Setup, then follow the onscreen instructions. To replace a plug-in module Windows 98 uses hot-swap software to let you swap most plug-in modules without shutting down the computer. Before replacing a hard drive module, however, you must first shut down the computer. When a drive module is present, Windows 2000 displays the Unplug or Eject Hardware icon-and Windows XP displays the Safely Remove Hardware icon-at the right end of the taskbar. 74 Corporate Evaluator's Guide
