2-2 Setting Up the System
This chapter provides the basic information you need to set up and use
your system (refer to the Quick Setup poster for details). Included are
procedures for converting the desktop to a slimtower (if required), making
cable connections, system startup, system shutdown, and system care. The
chapter also includes a table showing where to find additional information
about the computer.
Slimtower Setup
Your system shipped as a desktop. You can configure it as a slimtower by
attaching stabilizers to the system and standing it upright.
Configure the desktop as a slimtower as follows. To reconfigure the
slimtower to a desktop, reverse the following procedure.
1.
Set the desktop system on the edge of a table, with the left edge of the
desktop protruding beyond the edge of the table.
Note
You can attach one or both stabilizers, depending on whether you
intend to place the system against a wall or use it as a standalone.
2.
If attaching only one stabilizer, determine which side of the system
you want to attach the stabilizer.
3.
If attaching both stabilizers, first join them by sliding them together
to form one piece.
4.
Position the stabilizer(s) over the feet on the side of the system and
fasten in place with two screws (see the following figure).
