Important: If you are in the U.K., plug in the power cords first and then connect the telephone line to the wall outlet and the computer. If you have a modem or fax machine attached to the computer, and you are not in the U.K., reconnect the telephone line to the wall outlet and the computer and then plug the power cords into properly grounded electrical outlets. Updating the Computer Configuration Important: The configuration information in this section applies to installing options. For more information on using the Configuration/Setup Utility Program, see the Chapter 5, "Using the Configuration/Setup Utility Program" on page 27. You might need to install device drivers after updating the configuration settings. For more information, see the instructions that come with the option to determine if device drivers are required and how to install them. Device drivers are included on the Software Selections CD that comes with your computer. After adding, removing, or replacing options, the configuration settings must be updated. In most cases, this configuration is performed automatically using system programs. If the settings are not updated automatically, you can use the Configuration/Setup Utility Program program to reconfigure the appropriate settings. In either case, you must save the settings before exiting the Configuration/Setup Utility Program program. For example, when you start your computer after adding most internal hard disk drives, the settings might be updated. If the settings are not updated, use the Configuration/Setup Utility Program to make and save those changes. However, if a resource conflict arises after an ISA legacy adapter is installed or removed, you must manually update the computer configuration and save the information. For instructions, see "ISA Legacy Resources" on page 37. Note: For more information on error messages from resource conflicts, see Chapter 8, "Troubleshooting" on page 83. Chapter 7.
