While your WinBook notebook is capable of providing you with efficient
and productive mobile computing, it has the speed and capacity to serve as
a desktop system. Even if you have an existing desktop system, you will
find it useful on occasion to be able to connect your WinBook notebook as
if it were a desktop system. This chapter discusses those functions of your
WinBook notebook that are typical of desktop systems.
Audio
Audio Software
Your WinBook notebook comes equipped with an integrated sound system
capable of providing you with quality audio sound through the built-in
speakers or through external speakers connected via the jack on the rear of
the system.
Controlling the Sound Levels
In addition to the hot keys on your keyboard there are software controls
that you can use to set your audio volume. Refer to the Help and Support
Center within Windows for directions on how to adjust your audio volume.
Playing an Audio CD
You can play audio CDs through the sound system. Place the audio CD in
the drive (see Chapter 1 for instructions on inserting a disk). The Media
Player in Windows will recognize the audio CD and launch the program to
control the playback of the CD.
The Windows Media Player is designed to take advantage of Internet
music databases. When you load the CD, you will be asked if you would
like to check an Internet Database for information about the CD (artist,
title, tracks). It will automatically check its database for your CD. You
can modify the information once it has been downloaded. See the Help
and Support Center for more information.

ing the [Fn]+[End] hot
