Connecting peripherals
Setting up your computer is easy. For the most part, you only have
four things to connect: the USB mouse, the USB keyboard, the
monitor, and the power cable.
USB devices
Universal Serial Bus (USB) is a newer serial bus design that is capable of
cascading low-/medium-speed peripherals (less than 12 Mbps) such as a
keyboard, mouse, speakers, joystick, scanner, printer and modem.
With USB, complex cable connections can be eliminated.
Your computer comes with four USB ports: two each on both the front
and rear panels. These ports allow you to connect additional serial
devices to your computer without using up its system resources.
Your computer comes with a USB keyboard and a USB mouse.
To connect a USB device, simply plug the device cable into any of the
USB ports
(black ports).
Note: Front and back USB ports are functional after the OS is
loaded. Only the back USB port are functional during the initial
boot screens.
