Preface

 

 

Brackets indicate keyboard strokes. For example: Press [Enter], 

use the [Alt] key. When keys should be held down 

simultaneously, they are separated by the + sign. For example: 

Press [Ctrl+Alt+Delete]. When keys should be pressed 

sequentially, they will be in individual brackets without the + sign. 

For example: Press [1][Enter]. The [1] key should be pressed 

first, and then the [Enter] key should be pressed. 

 

Screen messages are indicated by quotes. For example: The 

message "Enter your username and password" will appear. 

 

Anything that you need to type will appear in italics. For example: 

Enter the word password. 

 

Optical Device Naming Convention 

 

In many installation programs you will have to get a program from the 

optical device. The program installation sequence assumes that the 

optical drive is drive d:\, however this is not always the case. The name 

of the optical drive is the letter following the letter assigned to your last 

HDD. For instance, if you have one HDD with two partitions, the HDD is 

drives C: and D: and the optical drive is then drive E. 

 

Touchpad Conventions 

 

You may be asked to click or double-click on items on the display screen. 

As a general note the touchpad actions are similar to a wheel mouse, 

any differences are explained fully.
