CAUTION:
The bottom 5.25-inch drive bay has a shorter depth than the upper two bays. The bottom bay
supports a half-height drive or other device that is no more than 14.5 cm (5.7 inches) in depth. Do not try to force a
larger drive, such as an optical drive, into the bottom bay. This could cause damage to the drive and the system
board. The use of unnecessary force when installing any drive into the drive bay may result in damage to the
drive.
NOTE:
When a device is plugged into the Microphone/Headphone Connector, a dialog box will pop up asking if
you want to use the connector for a microphone Line-In device or a headphone. You can reconfigure the
connector at any time by double-clicking the Realtek HD Audio Manager icon in the Windows taskbar.
NOTE:
The Power On Light is normally green when the power is on. If it is flashing red, there is a problem with
the computer and it is displaying a diagnostic code. Refer to the Maintenance and Service Guide to interpret the
code.
