Drives on Your Computer
Whether it’s the software program that you bought from your
local computer store or the shopping list you just typed up
using your word processor, all information in a computer is
stored electronically.
To save (write) data or retrieve (read) data, the computer uses
a drive. There are different ways to store data, and every differ-
ent type of data storage has a specific drive.
Three different types of drives come with your Acer computer:
The Hard Drive
Your fixed or hard drive is located inside your computer. This
drive is typically called the C: drive in Windows 98.
The Floppy Drive
This drive uses removable 3.5-inch floppy disks and is called the
A: drive.
The Monitor
Refer to the manual that came with your Aspire monitor for
more information on the monitor features.
The Speakers
Your system comes with a uniquely-designed set of speakers
that can be attached to the monitor.
To connect the speakers to the monitor:
1 •
Locate the left and right speaker brackets that came with
your speaker package.
2 •
Locate the brackets on the sides of your Aspire monitor.
3 •
Align and insert the holdfasts on the speakers into the key
holes. Then slide the speakers down to secure them to the
brackets. See the following figure:
Unlike ordinary speakers, the speakers that came with your
Aspire system do not use a power adapter. Instead, it shares
power with your system via the USB interface.
