1. use of certain external peripheral products
2. use of battery power instead of AC power
3. use of certain multimedia, computer generated graphics or video applications
4. use of standard telephone lines or low speed network connections
5. use of complex modeling software, such as high end computer aided design applications

CPU performance may also vary from specifications due to design configuration.
Under some conditions, your computer product may automatically shut-down. This is a normal protective feature designed to reduce the risk of lost data or
damage to the product when used outside recommended conditions. To avoid risk of lost data, always make back-up copies of data by periodically storing it
on an external storage medium. Use your computer product only under recommended conditions. Read additional restrictions under “Environmental
Conditions” in your product “Detailed Specs.” Contact Toshiba Technical Service and Support for more information.

Memory (Main System). Part of the main system memory may be used by the graphics system for graphics performance and therefore reduce the amount
of main system memory available for other computing activities. The amount of main system memory allocated to support graphics may vary depending on
the graphics system, applications utilized, system memory size and other factors. For PC's configured with 4 GB of system memory, the full system memory
space for computing activities will be considerably less and will vary by model and system configuration.
6
Hard Disk Drive (HDD) Capacity.
1 Gigabyte (GB) means 10
9
= 1,000,000,000 bytes using powers of 10. The computer operating system, however, reports storage capacity using powers of 2
for the definition of 1 GB = 2
30
= 1,073,741,824 bytes, and therefore shows less storage capacity. Available storage capacity will also be less if the product
includes one or more pre-installed operating systems, such as Microsoft Operating System and/or pre-installed software applications, or media content.
Actual formatted capacity may vary.
7
Optical Drive. Due to manufacturing and quality variations in third party optical media (e.g., CD or DVD) or optical media players/recorders, in certain
cases, your Toshiba optical drive may not record on certain optical media that bear the applicable logo, or playback optical media recorded by other PCs or
optical media recorders. Additionally, certain optical media recorded on your optical drive may not playback or operate properly on other PCs or optical
media players. These problems are not due to any defect in your Toshiba PC or optical drive. Please refer to your PC's product specification for listing of
specific format compatibilities.
Recording or viewing of certain optical media may be limited or prevented in accordance with applicable copy protection standards.
