System Startup

1. Remove all packing materials.
2. Place the computer on a stable surface.
3. Securely attach any peripherals you want to use with the computer
(e.g. keyboard and mouse) to their ports.
4. Attach the AC/DC adapter to the DC-In jack at the rear of the
computer, then plug the AC power cord into an outlet, and connect
the AC power cord to the AC/DC adapter (make sure you use
the adapter when first setting up the computer, as to
safeguard the computer during shipping the battery will be locked
to not power the system until first connected to the AC/DC
adapter).
5. Use one hand to raise the lid/LCD to a comfortable viewing angle
(do not to exceed 135 degrees); use the other hand (as illustrated
in Figure 1) to support the base of the computer (Note: Never lift
the computer by the lid/LCD).
6. Press the power button to turn the computer "on".

System Software

Your computer may already come with system software pre-
installed. Where this is not the case, or where you are re-con-
figuring your computer for a different system, you will find
this manual refers to Microsoft Windows 8.1 and Windows 10.
HDD RAID Support
Your hard disk(s) can be set up in AHCI mode or RAID mode
(for increased performance or protection). Note that setting up
your hard disk(s) in RAID mode needs to be done prior to in-
stalling the Windows OS. Do not change the mode unless you
intend to reinstall your operating system, and make sure you
back up all necessary files and data before doing so.
