Turning the computer on for the first time

To turn the computer on for the first time, follow these steps:

1

Turn on the monitor.

See the information that came with your monitor for the location of the power
switch. On newer Apple monitors, the power switch is located on the front of
the unit.

Note: If you have extra dynamic random-access memory (DRAM) installed
in your computer, it can take several seconds for larger monitors to turn on.
(The screen remains black.)

2

Turn on your computer by pressing the power button on the front of the unit.

You hear a tone from your computer as it starts up.

Note: You only need to use the power button on the front of your computer to
turn it on for the very first time; from now on, you can press the Power key on
the keyboard to turn on the computer. Refer to “Turning the Computer On”
later in this chapter for information about using the Power key on the
keyboard to start up your computer.
