Using the USB Ports{xe “USB”}{xe “Universal
Serial Bus” \t “
See
USB”}{xe “Hubs”}
The Universal Serial Bus (USB) ports give you an easy way to connect accessories.
Previously, you had to connect external devices in several different ways – parallel, serial,
PS/2, game port – the computer and external device had to be turned off while doing this,
and you spent a long time getting everything to work together. With USB, you can connect
up to 127 devices to your computer, using cables between each device up to 16 feet (5m)
long, each using the same type of connector and you can connect USB devices with the
computer on or off. The first time you connect a device, you may have to load some
software, but after that, the device is configured automatically.
Using the Video Controller{xe
“Video:controller”}{xe “VGA card”}{xe “ATi video
card”}
Your computer uses a built-in graphics controller with integrated full 2D hardware
acceleration, 3D hyper-pipelined architecture and full MPEG-2 motion compensation. The
graphics accelerator uses system memory for texture, display and Z- buffers.
To adjust the display properties, open the
Control Panel
in
My Computer
then open the
Display
icon. You can use the
Settings
tab to adjust the colors and resolution; click on the
Advanced
button to make adjustments to brightness and contrast.
