Guidelines for Connecting External Devices

• Turn off power to the system and external devices before attaching a new

external device. Turn on any external devices before turning on the system

(unless the documentation for the device specifies otherwise).

• Ensure that the appropriate driver for the attached device has been

installed on the system.

• If necessary to enable ports on your system, use the System Setup program.

See "Entering the System Setup Program" on page 52.
