Making Connections 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 or DVD drive. • LS-120 or Zip drive. • CD read/write drive. • Second hard drive. • Floppy disk drive. You can also attach the floppy disk drive to your computer's parallel port using the external floppy drive cable. • Secondary battery. Never remove a plug-in module without first notifying Windows-see "To replace a plug-in module" on page 35. Otherwise, you could lose data. For information about connecting your modem or LAN (depending on the model), or about connecting PC Cards or external devices, see the chapter titled "Making Connections" in the online Reference Guide. See the same online manual for modem AT commands. To install hot-swap support If your computer uses Windows ME, 95 or 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 plug-in module icon or 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: • Windows ME: Click Start, Programs, Softex BayManager, Setup, then follow the onscreen instructions. • Windows 95 or 98: Click Start, Programs, Agaté Tioman for HP, Setup, then follow the onscreen instructions. 34 Startup Guide
