Note Keep the original packing in case the device ever requires shipment.

Setting Up of the PC

Remember that choosing the proper location for your PC is just as important as connecting it correctly.

Operational Environment

Keep your PC and all units connected to it away from moisture, dust, heat and direct sunlight. Failure to observe these instructions can lead to malfunctions or damage to the PC. To prevent damage to your PC from a fall, place and operate the PC and all connected units on a stable, balanced and vibration-free surface.

Ambient Temperature

The PC can be operated at an ambient temperature of between 10 and 35C (+41 and +95F) and at a relative humidity of between 30% and 70% (without condensation). When powered off, the PC can be stored at temperatures between -20 and 50C ( 40 and +158F). Unplug the power during thunderstorms and make especially sure to remove the antenna cables, if present. We recommend the use of a surge protector for additional safety in order to protect your PC from being damaged by power surges or lightning strikes through the power network. Delay operating a PC after transport until the device has adjusted to the ambient temperature. In situations of large temperature or humidity differences condensation may build up moisture inside the PC, which might cause an electrical short circuit.

Ergonomics

Note Ensure that the monitor is set up in such a way that reflections, glare and light/darkness contrast are avoided.
Always position the monitor in a line of sight that runs parallel to the window. You should also apply a parallel line of sight with respect to artificial lighting. This means that in a room lit by artificial light essentially the same criteria and objectives apply. Should it not be possible to arrange the monitor as outlined above, the following measures might be helpful: Turn, lower or incline the monitor. Place horizontal or vertical shades on the windows. Work in Comfort Note Take regular breaks from your screen to prevent tenseness and exhaustion. Sitting in one position for long periods can be uncomfortable. To minimise the potential for physical discomfort or injury, its important that you maintain proper posture. Overall: Change your position frequently and take regular breaks to avoid fatigue. Back: While sitting at your work surface make sure your back is supported by the chairs backrest. This should be in an erect position or angled slightly backwards.

In the first hours of operation, new devices may emit a typical, unavoidable but completely harmless smell, which will decline increasingly in the course of time. We recommend that you ventilate the room regularly, in order to counteract the formation of the smell. Note You only need to connect those components to your computer that you require. If you do not have the described device available (e. g. printer) you may carry out the connection later.

Front Connectivity

Diagram reference: I Some connections are located behind the front flap. This offers you the great advantage of creating frequently used connections quickly and conveniently, without turning the PC round. The flap, when closed, also protects the connectors.

Connecting the Monitor

Diagram reference: P Your PC is equipped with a VGA and a DVI and a connector. Note Always only connect one data cable, in order to avoid problems with the signal allocation, if your monitor has several inputs (e.g. VGA and DVI). Note Take care that the connector and the socket fit exactly to avoid damaging the contacts. Because of its asymmetric form the plug only fits into the socket in one position. 1. Connect the data cable of the monitor to the socket on the graphics card (reference P). If necessary, remove the white guard-ring on the monitor plug
2. Hand-tighten the screws on the monitor cable.

Connecting USB Devices

Diagram reference: A, B Warning! Connect your USB devices after initial set-up of your new PC. This will prevent unnecessary confusion during installation. These devices can generally be connected during operation. Read the manual for your peripheral device first. The voltage outputs of your PC for USB are protected by a fuse. This ensures that a malfunction of the PC will not damage the peripheral devices connected to the respective jacks.
You have a choice of several connection sockets. It does not matter which one you use. Note Take care that the connector and the socket fit exactly to avoid damaging the contacts. Because of its asymmetric form the plug only fits into the socket in one position. 1. If you wish to use a printer, scanner or other device with a USB port, connect the cable to the USB socket on your PC. Note Always connect your device to the same port otherwise your operating system will give a new ID and will ask for driver installation.

1. Power on the monitor and your peripherals.

Switch

Diagram reference: N 2. Provide power to your PC by pressing the switch to position [I].(You will stop the flow of current to the PC by pressing the switch to position [0])

On/off Switch

Diagram reference: J 3. Press the On/off switch briefly to start loading the operating system. You can program the function of the main switch in the power management of Windows (please refer to on-line help). The PC will always be switched off, if the main switch is pressed for more than 4 seconds. Warning! If the operating system is not shut down properly (through ), then there is a risk of data loss.

Step 1: Power On

Step 2: Initialisation of Your PC
The PC starts and now goes through a number of phases: Note Ensure that there is no bootable CD (e.g. the Recovery-CD) in the CD-ROM drive. Such discs will prevent the operating system from loading directly off the hard drive. The operating system is loaded from the hard disc. During the initial set-up, the loading process takes slightly longer than normal to register the operating system and the individual components completely. Your operating system is finished loading when a welcome screen is shown on your display. Follow the instructions on the screen. Dialogue boxes will explain any steps that need to be taken. The greeting procedure will guide you through the following screens and dialogues. Should you have any questions just click on License agreement Please read through the license agreement carefully. It contains important legal information on the use of your software. In order to see the full text, use the mouse and the scroll bar to move downwards until you have reached the end of the document. You accept the agreement by clicking on the I accept the agreement option field. Only by doing so will you be entitled to use the product under lawful terms and conditions.

Step 3: Finalising

After the login procedure the Windows desktop appears on your screen. This can be adjusted so that the screen of your computer looks different. The basic operation, however, is ensured.
Short Description of the Windows Desktop
(Please refer to diagram on page 23) Start Button Clicking the Start button brings up a menu where you can access help, software programs, files, and settings All Programs All of the software programs installed on your PC are ordinarily listed here. Click All Programs to reveal an extensive menu. Taskbar You can start programs and switch between already active programs using the taskbar beneath the screen. You can place every program in the taskbar under Windows 7, so that you can always open it with a single click. Furthermore, you can rearrange the symbols on the taskbar by clicking on them and dragging them to the desired position. Move the cursor over the symbols, and the system will display a miniature of every file or window open in the program. When you move your cursor over the miniature, the system will display a full-screen preview of the particular window. If you move the cursor away from the miniature, the full-screen preview will close. Windows Search Windows Search helps you find almost all data located on the PC, quickly and easily. With Windows 7, you get search results with greater relevance, and they are easier to understand. Program Bar The most commonly used software programs are listed here. The operating system recognises all this automatically. Clicking on an entry with the right mouse key enables you to decide which entry on the list to keep or to remove. The program linked to the input is not erased. Turn Off To turn off the PC, click on the Shut down button with the left mouse key. Desktop Click on this Button if you would like to minimise all the windows open onto the taskbar, in order to obtain a clear view of the Desktop. Desktop Icons Desktop icons link to their respective programs. To start a program, double-click its desktop icon. The desktop encompasses nearly the entire screen and acts as the shelf space for such entries or for other links, to which you would like rapid access. Logged in User This tells you which user is logged in to your PC.

Control Panel You can use the icons in Control Panel to change the appearance and functionality of Windows 7. These icons represent options for configuring your PC. You should, however, consult "Help and Support" on the potential effects of certain changes. System Tray When certain events occur, for example, upon receipt of an e-mail message or upon opening the task manager, it may happen that too many notification symbols are displayed in this field. Windows displays a notification symbol when an event occurs. After a short time, Windows places the symbol in the background, in order to maintain the straightforwardness of the field. You can access the symbols placed in the background by clicking on a button in the system tray.

Chapter 3

The Mouse

The mouse has beside the two keys a wheel that can be used to scroll through a document or internet pages.
Note The scroll wheel can be used as a button. The functionality depends on the application. In Word for example you can push the wheel to move up and down as a scroll function. If the mouse cursor moves jerkily on the screen, try a different surface (mouse pad). Glass and metallic surfaces might cause problems.

The Keyboard

This section contains useful information on using the keyboard.

The Alt and Ctrl Keys

The left Alt key performs certain functions in conjunction with other keys. The application program determines these functions. In order to enter a combination of keys that include the Alt key, hold the Alt key down while pressing the other key. The right Alt key operates in a similar way but selects certain special characters. The Ctrl key, like the Alt key, carries out program functions. Useful key combinations (software-dependent): Key Combination Alt + F4 Alt + Print screen Shift + ' Ctrl + Alt + Del Function and Description As a rule ends the program selected or closes the window opened. Copies the image of the window currently active to the clipboard. Generates the @ character required for e-mails (pronounced: at). Windows security is launched.
(Country-specific variances are possible.)

The Hard Drive

The hard drive is the main storage medium combining large storage capacity and rapid data access. The hard drive contains the operating system of the computer, other application programs and backup files. These programs and files are pre-installed on your PC, so you may note that some of the space on your hard drive is already taken. The Windows operating system cannot use the full capacity of the hard drive, which means that there will be a difference between the capacity that the BIOS displays and what the operating system displays. The operating system of the PC, further application programs and backup files are located on the hard drive and reduce its total capacity. Note Never switch off the computer while the busy indicator is lit since this may result in loss of data. A flickering hard drive display is your indication that the PC is accessing the hard drive. In your first partition (C:\) you will find the operating system, application programs and the users documents. The second partition (D:\) serves for data security and contains additional drivers (D:\Driver) and tools (D:\Tools) for your PC. Note You will also find in two otherwise non-overwriteable partitions the system restoration start files ( p. 65), as well as installation files for Windows 7. These partitions are not visible and should not be erased.

The Optical Drive

Diagram reference: E, F

Loading a Disc:

Attention! Do not place protective foils or other stickers on your CDs. To avoid damage to your drive, do not use deformed or damaged CDs. Attention: Do not use scratched or dirty discs, discs with pieces broken off or discs of poor quality. Because of the high speeds in the drive the discs might break and damage your data as well as your drive. Examine the discs before you enter them. If damage or dirt is visible, you should not use them. Damage caused by faulty media is excluded from warranty and any repair will be charged. 1. Push the eject button (Diagram reference, F) on the right of the optical drive to open the tray. 2. Place the disc on the tray so that it lays flat with the label facing upward. 3. Push the eject button again to close the tray. 4. Push the tray back into the optical drive carefully. The E drive letter will have been allocated to your optical drive in the delivery status. You will have easy access to your files on your discs with Windows Explorer (Computer). Start the Computer Help Program by means of the Desktop link or by pressing the Windows key and the E key at the same time. Open Windows Explorer by means of Start All Programs Accessories. The pre-installed media reproduction will be used automatically during access to DVD movies (or audio and movie files on normal data CDs).

How to Remove a Disc

1. To remove a disc push the eject button (Diagram reference F) again to open the tray. 2. Remove the disc and store it at a safe place. 3. Shut the tray. Attention! While the PC is accessing the optical drive the media activity is lit. Do not try to remove the disc from the drive while this LED is lit.
Playing Back and Retrieving Data from Discs
Your PC is able to playback and to retrieve Audio CDs, DVD Movies and Data discs. After loading the disc your operating system will open a selection window with different options for playback. If your operating system doesnt open the selection window you still have the possibility of access to the optical drive via the Windows Explorer or the Computer.

Attention!

Conditions

The partner used can be a wireless access point. An access point is a wireless transmitter that communicates with your PC and controls access to the network connection (e.g., a home network or a broadband connection such as DSL). Wireless access points are often found in offices, airports, universities or Internet cafs. They offer access to enterprise services and networks or to the Internet. Access authorizations are normally needed. A fee may be required to use a public access point. To set up a wireless network to share Internet access, files, and printers at home, you will need an access point, a router, and a broadband (DSL or cable) modem. Some access points can also serve as a router and/or a broadband modem. Check with your service provider to find the best solution for your needs. A link to another computer with wireless LAN functionality can also be created without an access point. This will allow you to share files, but you will need an access point and a router to share an Internet connection. The wireless network link works according to stan* dard IEEE 802.11n and is compatible to standard IEEE 802.11 b/g. Other standards (802.11a etc.) are not supported. The transmission speed can vary according to distance and other factors. Search for "wireless networking" in Windows Help and Support for more information.
In order to the full capacity of the IEEE 802.11n module in this notebook, a WLAN router which supports the 802.11n standard is required. After Sales Support TEL: 987 WEB Support: www.medion.com.au
Dont use this feature in environments where highly sensitive devices are placed such as in hospitals etc. To avoid any interference disable this option in your device manager.
Troubleshooting within the Network
Why does the network environment not show the releases? The network environment is delayed in time. Check the release by searching for the respective computer name. Why does an error message appear when I click on the network environment? The computer name must be unique on the network and may not be the same as the task group. It appears that the network boards are unable to communicate. What might be the problem? Maybe one of the used network boards works with a different speed (e. g. 10 instead 100 Mbit) and your network computer is unable to recognise this. If necessary, set the network driver to the compatible speed. If two PCs should be linked you require a cross-link cable, otherwise use a patch cable. In addition, check the protocols and the configuration. The data transmission is incorrect or very slow. What might be the problem? Maybe you have the wrong cable (UTP / CAT3 or lower) or the problem is the proximity of a power cord or another source of interference. For further hints on troubleshooting refer to the Windows help under "Network errors".

Better Device Management

Windows 7 enables you to close, manage and use all devices through the "Devices and Printers" central function. All devices are displayed in a central position. With the new Device Stage Technology, Windows 7 even goes one step further in device management. Device Stage helps you use all compatible devices connected to your computer. Thanks to Device Stage, now you display the device status in one single window and carry out often-used commands. You will even find pictures of the devices here, easily enabling you to see which devices are connected. The manufacturer of the devices can even adapt Device Stage. If the manufacturer of your camera, for example, prepares an adapted version of Device Stage, you can see the number of photos on the camera and receive links to useful information when you link the camera to the PC.

Homegroup

With homegroups, a new function of Windows 7, the linking of home computers is really simple. A home network group is created automatically, for example, when you link the first PC under Windows 7 with the home network. The addition of additional PCs with Windows 7 to the home network group is quickly accomplished. You can indicate exactly what should be released on each PC for all other PCs in the home network group. Finally, the shared use of files on the various home PCs, and on many other devices, is so simple that it is as if all files were located on one single hard drive. This allows you to store digital photos on the computer in your home office and then enjoy easy access to them from a laptop in any other room in the house. Similarly, the printer in home office is automatically released for all PCs in the house, as long as they are all in the home network group. Beginners and persons changing from other Windows versions systems are advised to read this material carefully.
