OPTIONAL: CONNECT TO A NETWORK
If you're using your Insignia computer as part
of a home network, or connecting to a LAN, connect
one end of a CAT5 network cable to the network port
on the back of the computer and the other end to a
working cable or DSL modem.
NOTE: The CAT5 cable should be connected to a
working network that can access the Internet before
turning on your computer for the first time.
CONNECT THE COMPUTER POWER CORD
Connect the AC power cord (the end with no metal
prongs) to the AC power port on the back of the
computer. Plug the other end into a surge protector
or a wall outlet.
SETTING UP WINDOWS XP
Your new Insignia computer already has the Windows XP operating system installed.
When you turn on your computer for the first time, Windows XP will guide you through the
set-up process. NOTE: If your Best Buy Geek Squad Agent set up your computer and
Windows XP in the store, you may not see these screens.
STARTING YOUR COMPUTER
Turn on the monitor and any other peripherals connected to
your computer (printer, scanner, etc.). Press the power but-
ton on the front of your computer. The activity lights will turn
on and Windows XP will begin to load.
NOTE: If a CD, DVD, floppy or other media card is in your
computer when it is turned on, your computer may attempt
to start up from that disk rather than the hard drive. If you
mistakenly start from a disk and wish to start from the hard
drive, remove all media and then restart your computer.
