Operating Basics
TV Tuner (optional)
Some models in this series are equipped with a built-in TV Tuner that
allows you to watch TV programs on the built-in LCD and to record them.
If you have Windows XP Home Edition installed, use the WinDVR program
to display TV programs on the built-in LCD and record them. It is also
possible to edit recorded programs and save them on a DVD.
If you have Windows XP Media Center Edition isntalled, use the My TV
feature contained in Media Center.
Using the TV Tuner
Antenna
■ The quality of sounds and pictures greatly depends on the radio
propagation conditions.
■ When you use your computer in areas where the radio waves are
weak, which results in poor radio receiving conditions, contact the
dealer you purchased it from, or use a commercially available
antenna booster. Please refer to the manual provided with the
booster for details.
Connecting the Cable
Use the antenna adaptor that comes with the product to connect the
antenna to your computer.
Connecting the antenna adaptor
1. Save data, shutdown Windows and turn off the power.
According to government regulations, it is not permitted to bring
PAL/SECAM TV tuners into Korea
When lightning occurs, do not touch the antenna line. This may cause an
electric shock.
If you have to operate your computer during a thunderstorm and are
connecting the TV tuner to an outside antenna, you should operate your
computer using AC power mode. The AC adaptor offers some protection
against (but does not entirely prevent) possible electric shock caused by
lightning. For complete protection, do not operate your computer during a
thunderstorm.
