The first time you use the CD-ROM drive, check to see if

there is a white tab on the CD spindle. If there is such a

important to seat the CD properly. First, center the CD

on the spindle (see Figure 1-1). Then gently press the
CD down on both sides of the spindle until the CD snaps

into place.

nect the CD-ROM drive to any external connector on the

Card Information

If the computer uses the Microsoft® Windows® 95 or

Windows 98 operating system, do not put a network PC
Card into the PC Card slot before you turn on your com­
puter for the first time. A network PC Card that is left in

the computer during the operating system setup may

cause installation difficulties. You may insert and use any

PC Card after the operating system setup is complete.

If the computer uses the Microsoft Windows NT® oper­

ating system, do not install any PC Card before you turn
on the computer for the first time. You may insert and use
any PC Card after the operating system setup is complete.

To avoid damaging the PC Card eject button, never leave

it in the “out” position (extended beyond the computer

case). If you accidentally press the PC Card eject button,
remove and reinstall the PC Card immediately to make

sure the button stays flush with the computer case (see
Figure 1-2).
