When your system is fully connected together,
press the lower of the two power buttons, bottom right.
This turns on the system. The upper purple, or standby
button, is dealt with on the back of this guide, do not press
this. Next, press the corresponding power button on the
monitor. If nothing happens, check your connections and
your supply switch.
There is a chapter in the Owner's Handbook called 'Troubleshooting', which
will help you if you should encounter any problems.
The system will now perform a self test routine and then display a message
'Starting Windows 95'. This sets up the computer and the operating
system for you to use. This will take a few seconds and then you will see
the opening screen, which will guide you through setting up your system
for the first time.
It might be a good idea, if you are unfamiliar with Windows 95, to run
some of the tutorials. These can be found in the HELP section of the Start
menu. (bottom left of the screen.)
When you come to switch off, the system power button will turn the monitor
off with the computer. (If the monitor power lead has been connected to
the system.)

You can now load
any new software
from either floppy disks or from CD-ROM disks. Both types of drive are
fitted to your system.
The majority of new software is being issued on CD, especially the
MultiMedia and professional titles.
CDs are much easier to carry and store, having the equivalent capacity of
well over 400 floppy disks.
More detailed information can be found in the Owner's Handbook when
you need it, along with technical information about your system and many
of the internal components.
If you look at the set of manuals, you will find amongst them a quick guide
to Windows 95 explaining
how to use some of the
great features.

ONE BRIEF WORD OF WARNING
This computer system is shipped with the latest Energy Star power saving
features active, allowing you be more environmentally friendly in your work.
It is intended to help reduce global power consumption, and ultimately
waste and pollution. This system is designed, when left unattended, to go
into a 'Low Power' mode.
LOW POWER MODE (The standby light on the purple button will flash)
The screen will blank and parts of the system will slow down or stop, but
the software will still be running, though it will be much slower.
Restoring the system is by moving the mouse, pressing any
keyboard key, or by pressing the purple standby button, top
right of the computer front.
The computer will restore to the state in which you left it,
almost immediately, but depending how long it was left in
'Low power', the monitor may take a few seconds to warm up
again.
