Chapter 1. Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of the All-In-One 19” TFT-LCD Panel
PC.
Product features
LCD-PC is the all-in-one PC that combines a 19” TFT-LCD monitor
and a desktop computer, offering an ultra light weight of 10Kg and a
modern design that suits any working conditions.
LCD-PC is so user-friendly that anyone can use it without difficulty
because it has all major components in its all-in-one main body.
Even though the LCD-PC is very compact, its functionality is limitless.
It supports out-dated and conventional peripheral devices, adapting to
users’ working environments. It also supports the latest peripheral
devices with its four built-in USB ports (compatible with USB v2.0) and
one IEEE1394 adaptor.
The PC enables wireless networking without additional equipment
using its built-in network adaptor.
The PC’s 19” TFT-LCD display, directly driven by digital signals, offers
a clearer image than that of separate TFT-LCD monitor of the same
class, which is driven by analog signals. Furthermore, it allows for
the use of extended screens and has multi monitor functionality
because it is equipped with an extension port for connecting to TVs or
other external monitors.
This PC is designed to run best using Windows XP, Microsoft’s latest
operating system. When used with the Windows XP operating system,
you can get a more stable and diverse computing environment.
The adoption of a 1 9 ” TFT-LCD monitor minimizes harmful
electromagnetic waves and power consumption. Its design is
engineered for the human body to minimize eyestrain.

To set up the computer that is pre-setup with Microsoft Windows XP
Home Edition in step 0:
1. Connect the mouse and keyboard that come with the main body
and turn on the power of the main body. The following “Microsoft
Windows Start” dialog box will be displayed. To continue the setup,
click <Next> at the bottom of the screen.
2. When the “User’s Time Zone” dialog box is displayed, select the
proper time zone for your location and select <Next>.
3. When the “ End Users’ License Agreement” menu is displayed,
select “I accept this agreement” and then click <Next>.
4. When you see the “Your Product Key” page on the screen, enter
the product key specified in Windows XP Home Edition user’s
guide that comes with the purchase of this PC and select <Next>.
5. A dialog box will appear asking you to designate a computer name.
Enter a computer name and computer description in the blanks

box reading, “Are you going to receive verification service?” will be
displayed. Even though you can have the verification right away to
know whether your copy of Windows is licensed or not, you are
recommended to select “No, not at this time.” This is because it is
better to activate Windows when you test the computer for a while
and you are sure that there are no problems with your new PC.
However, you must activate Windows within 30 days.
9. Lastly, you will see a dialog box asking who will use this computer.
Enter names of users who will share the computer and press

basic setup is complete. Press <Finish> to reboot your computer
and to run Windows XP.
Step 2: The installation of drivers for other peripherals
Skip this step if you do not use other peripherals.
To use other peripherals this PC supports such as printers, serial
communication devices, USB devices, IEEE 1394 devices, and game
consoles/ MIDI devices, connect the device to the main body, press
the power button and boot the PC. When booting is complete, install
the pertinent driver in the system. Because the system automatically
senses and installs plug-and-play peripherals, follow the instructions
displayed on the setup menu and refer to the device’s user’s guide.
For peripherals that are not plug-and-play, users have to install the
device and reboot the system for normal operation.
Refer to the user’s guide of each device for detailed instructions.

Using other applications
To use other applications obtained or purchased separately, refer to
the user’s guide of each application provided by the software
manufacturer.
Partitioning the hard disk
For user’s convenience, the hard disk built into this product is divided
into two partitions (drive C and drive D). Drive C, a system drive, is
installed with a Windows operating system, a variety of drivers, and
other applications when you receive the computer. In contrast, drive D,
a usual data drive, is empty.
This is to let users store data in drive D to be protected in the event of
a system failure. When the hard disk must be reformatted and the
system must be reinstalled due to serious damage to the system, only
drive C needs to be reformatted while data stored in drive D is kept
intact without any intervention.

Chapter 5. Changing the setup
This chapter will briefly outline how to change the setup to suits each user
using BIOS CMOS setup utility programs. This chapter also covers how to
upgrade your computer system.
BIOS CMOS setup utility
This PC adopts BIOS based on Phoenix Technology’s latest Award BIOS
6.0 version. The optimum settings for this product are given for each as
default.
Users can change settings using the BIOS CMOS setup utility included wi
th this product. The BIOS CMOS setup utility is also useful when making
changes to the booting order, when selecting a password, or when adding
a new device.
However, if the BIOS CMOS utility setup is wrongly configured, a serious
system error can take place such as “unable to boot the system”, so be c
areful when changing the settings.
[For reference]
BIOS CMOS setup refers to setting up the components of the system
hardware and saving them. The settings are saved even when the power is off
because the settings are stored in CMOS RAM built into the system and
powered by internal batteries.
How to change BIOS CMOS setup
Here is a brief outline of how to change CMOS settings using the
BIOS CMOS setup utility.
1. Turn on the computer.
2. When the startup page appears, press <Del> to activate the BIOS
CMOS setup utility. If you press the <Del> key too late, it
automatically boots Windows. Should that occur, reset the
computer and press <Del> once again.
