USB Connectors
The iPAQ Desktop Personal Computer features two internal USB controllers,
each providing data transfer rates up to 12 megabits per second (Mbps). One
of these controllers is dedicated exclusively to a new, full-speed Universal
Serial Bus (USB) connector (shown on the previous page). The other five
USB connectors share the second controller.
Any USB device (including keyboard and mouse) can be connected to any
USB connector. However, Compaq recommends the use of the full-speed
USB connector, with its dedicated 12Mbps controller, for devices such as
scanners, digital cameras, external I/O devices, and printers that can utilize
the additional speed for maximum performance.
Legacy Module
Microsoft Windows 98 and Windows NT 4.0 will not run properly if the Legacy Module is not
installed or has been removed from the iPAQ Desktop Personal Computer. The Legacy Module is
optional on systems running Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional or Microsoft Windows
Millennium.
✎
The Legacy Module (standard on select models) provides serial, parallel, PS/2
mouse, and PS/2 keyboard connectors. For more information, refer to
chapter 5, “Using the Legacy Module.”

Step 3: Connect External Devices
Connect the monitor, mouse, and keyboard cables. If you use a network,
connect the network cable to the Ethernet RJ-45 Connector. For easy setup,
Compaq has color-coded the cables and rear panel connectors.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of electrical shock, fire, or damage to the equipment, do not plug
telecommunications/telephone connections into the network interface controller (NIC)
connectors.
Å
Ä
PS/2 mouse and keyboard connectors are available only on iPAQ Desktop
Personal Computers equipped with the Legacy Module. A USB mouse or
keyboard may be connected to any of the available USB connectors; however,
you may want to reserve the dedicated, full-speed USB connector for USB
devices, such as digital cameras, scanners, or networking devices that demand
the extra speed for enhanced performance.
CAUTION: Do not add additional, optional hardware devices to your Personal Computer until the
operating system is successfully installed. Doing so may cause errors and may prevent the
operating system from installing properly.

Step 6: Turn On the Personal Computer and Install the Operating System
Press the power button to turn on the personal computer. Refer to “Step 2:
Identify Rear Panel Components and Confirm Voltage Setting” on page 2 for
the location of the power button.
The first time you turn on the Personal Computer, the operating system is
installed automatically. This process takes about 10 minutes, depending on
which operating system is being installed. Carefully read and follow the
instructions that appear on the screen to complete the installation.
CAUTION: Once the automatic installation has begun, DO NOT TURN OFF THE COMPUTER UNTIL
THE PROCESS IS COMPLETE. Turning off the Personal Computer during the installation process
might damage the software that runs the Personal Computer.
Ä
When the Welcome to Windows screen is displayed, the Windows installation
process is complete.
Customizing the Monitor Display
You can manually select or change the monitor brand, model, refresh rates,
color, resolution, and power management settings. Select the Display icon in
the Windows Control Panel to change display settings, or refer to the online
documentation provided with the graphics controller utility.
Protecting Your Software
To protect your software from loss or damage, you should keep a backup copy
of all system software, applications, and related files stored on your hard
drive. Refer to your operating system or backup utility documentation for
instructions on making backup copies of your data files.

customer service.

Turning Off the Personal Computer
To properly turn off the personal computer, first shut down the operating
system software. In Microsoft Windows operating systems, click Start > Shut
Down.
In Windows NT Workstation 4.0, the power button always functions as a
power switch. However, in the default configuration of Windows 98,
Windows 2000 Professional, or Windows Millenium, pressing the power
button does not turn off the power, but causes the Personal Computer to enter
a low-power state. This allows you to conserve energy without closing
software applications; later, you can start using the computer immediately,
without having to restart the operating system and without any data loss.
If the power button is pressed and held in for four seconds, power to the Personal Computer will
turn off completely. To reconfigure the power button to work in On/Off mode, run Computer
Setup. Refer to the “Computer Setup Utilities (F10 Setup)” section of the Troubleshooting Guide
for more information on using Computer Setup.
