Getting Started
Registering your computer with Toshiba
Setting up your software
When you turn on the computer for the first time, do not turn off the
power again until the operating system has loaded completely.
The first time you turn on your computer, the Setup Wizard guides
you through steps to set up your software. Follow the on-screen
instructions.
Registering your computer with Toshiba
Product registration is strongly recommended, and allows Toshiba
to send you periodic updates, announcements, and special offers
applicable to your product. Product registration can be completed
by either visiting the Toshiba Web site at
http://www.register.toshiba.com, or by clicking Start, All
Programs, My Toshiba, and then Toshiba Registration. Failure to
complete Product Registration will not diminish Customer rights
under the Toshiba standard limited Warranty.
To register online, you must be connected to the Internet.

setting up your software. See “Setting up your software” on page 41.

❖ Add more memory (see “Adding memory (optional)” on
page 42)
❖ Connect a mouse (see “Using a mouse” on page 73)
❖ Connect an external keyboard (see “Using an external
keyboard” on page 72)
