20 Setting Up and Using Your Computer

Installing Your Computer in an Enclosure

Installing your computer in an enclosure can restrict the airflow and impact

your computer’s performance, possibly causing it to overheat. Follow the

guidelines below when installing your computer in an enclosure:

NOTICE: The operating temperature specifications in your Owner’s Manual reflect

the maximum ambient operating temperature. The room ambient temperature

needs to be a consideration when installing your computer in an enclosure. For

example, if the ambient room temperature is at 25° C (77° F), depending on your

computer’s specifications, you only have 5° to 10° C (9° to 18° F) temperature margin

before you reach your computer’s maximum operating temperature. For details

about your computer’s specifications, see "Specifications" on page 165.

• Leave a 10.2 cm (4 in) minimum clearance on all vented sides of the

computer to permit the airflow required for proper ventilation.

• If your enclosure has doors, the doors need to be of a type that allows at

least 30% airflow through the enclosure (front and back).

It is recommended that you use the front USB connectors

for devices that you connect occasionally, such as joysticks

or cameras.

11 VGA video

Setting Up and Using Your Computer 21

• If your computer is installed in a corner on a desk or under a desk, leave at

least 5.1 cm (2 in) clearance from the back of the computer to the wall to

permit the airflow required for proper ventilation.

22 Setting Up and Using Your Computer

• Do not install your computer in an enclosure that does not allow airflow.

Restricting the airflow impacts your computer’s performance, possibly

causing it to overheat.

Copying CDs and DVDs

NOTE: Ensure that you observe all copyright laws when creating CDs or DVDs.

This section applies only to computers that have a CD-RW, DVD+/-RW, or

CD-RW/DVD (combo) drive.

NOTE: The types of CD or DVD drives offered by Dell may vary by country.

The following instructions explain how to make an exact copy of a CD or

DVD using Roxio Creator Plus - Dell Edition. You can also use Roxio Creator

Plus for other purposes, such as creating music CDs from audio files stored on

your computer or backing up important data. For help, open Roxio Creator

Plus, and then click the question mark icon in the upper-right corner of the

window.

How to Copy a CD or DVD

NOTE: CD-RW/DVD combo drives cannot write to DVD media. If you have a

CD-RW/DVD combo drive and you experience recording problems, check for

available software patches on the Sonic support website at sonic.com.

The DVD-writable drives installed in Dell™ computers can write to and read

DVD+/-R, DVD+/-RW and DVD+R DL (dual layer) media, but cannot

write to and may not read DVD-RAM or DVD-R DL media.

NOTE: Most commercial DVDs have copyright protection and cannot be copied

using Roxio Creator Plus.

1

Open Roxio Creator Plus.

2

Under the

Copy

tab, click

Disc Copy

.

3

To copy the CD or DVD:

•

If you have one CD/DVD drive

, ensure that the settings are correct, and

then click

Disc Copy

. The computer reads your source CD or DVD

and copies the data to a temporary folder on your computer hard

drive.

When prompted, insert a blank CD or DVD into the drive and

click

OK

.

28 Setting Up and Using Your Computer

•

If you have two CD/DVD drives

, select the drive into which you have

inserted your source CD or DVD, and then click

Disc

Copy

. The

computer copies the data from the source CD or DVD to the blank

CD or DVD.

Once you have finished copying the source CD or DVD, the CD or DVD

that you have created automatically ejects.

Using Blank CDs and DVDs

CD-RW drives can write to CD recording media only (including high-speed

CD-RW media), while DVD-writable drives can write to both CD and DVD

recording media.

Use blank CD-Rs to record music or permanently store data files. After the

maximum storage capacity of a CD-R is reached, you cannot write to that

CD-R again (see the Sonic documentation for more information). Use blank

CD-RWs if you plan to erase, rewrite, or update information on the CD later.

Blank DVD+/-Rs can be used to permanently store large amounts of data.

After you create a DVD+/-R disc, you may not be able to write to that disc

again if the disc is finalized or closed during the final stage of the disc creation

process. Use blank DVD+/-RWs if you plan to erase, rewrite, or update

information on the disc later.

• Use CD-Rs to burn music CDs that you want to play in regular stereos.

CD-RWs may not play in many home or car stereos.

• You cannot create audio DVDs with Roxio Creator Plus.

• Music MP3 files can be played only on MP3 players or on computers that

have MP3 software installed.

• Commercially available DVD players used in home theater systems may

not support all available DVD formats. For a list of formats supported by

your DVD player, see the documentation provided with your DVD player

or contact the manufacturer.

• Do not burn a blank CD-R or CD-RW to its maximum capacity; for

example, do not copy a 650-MB file to a blank 650-MB CD. The CD-RW

drive needs 1–2 MB of blank space to finalize the recording.

• Use a blank CD-RW to practice CD recording until you are familiar with

CD recording techniques. If you make a mistake, you can erase the data on

the CD-RW and try again. You can also use blank CD-RWs to test music

file projects before you record the project permanently to a blank CD-R.

Power Management Options in Windows XP

The Microsoft Windows XP power management features can reduce the

amount of electricity your computer uses when it is on and you are not using

it. You can reduce power to just the monitor or the hard drive, or you can use

standby mode or hibernate mode to reduce power to the entire computer.

When the computer exits from a power conservation mode, it returns to the

operating state it was in prior to entering the mode.

NOTE: Windows XP Professional includes security and networking features not

available in Windows XP Home Edition. When a Windows XP Professional

computer is connected to a network, different options related to security and

networking appear in certain windows.

NOTE: The procedures to activate the standby and hibernate modes may vary

according to your operating system.

Standby Mode

Standby mode conserves power by turning off the display and the hard drive

after a designated period of time, known as a time-out. When the computer

exits from standby mode, it returns to the operating state it was in prior to

entering standby mode.

NOTICE: If your computer loses power while in standby mode, it may lose data.

34 Setting Up and Using Your Computer

.

To immediately activate standby mode without a period of inactivity, click

Start

→

Turn Off Computer

→

Stand by.

To exit from standby mode, press a key on the keyboard or move the mouse.

Hibernate Mode

Hibernate mode conserves power by copying system data to a reserved area on

the hard drive, and then completely turning off the computer. When the

computer exits from hibernate mode, the desktop is restored to the state it

was in prior to entering hibernate mode.

tab.

To exit hibernate mode, press the power button. The computer may take a

short time to exit hibernate mode. Because the keyboard and mouse do not

function in hibernate mode, pressing a key on the keyboard or moving the

mouse does not bring the computer out of hibernation.

Because hibernate mode requires a special file on your hard drive with enough

disk space to store the contents of the computer memory, Dell creates an

appropriately sized hibernate mode file before shipping the computer to you.

If the computer’s hard drive becomes corrupted, Windows XP recreates the

hibernate file automatically.

Power Schemes Tab

Each standard power setting is called a scheme. If you want to select one of

the standard Windows schemes installed on your computer, choose a scheme

from the Power schemes drop-down menu. The settings for each scheme

appear in the fields below the scheme name. Each scheme has different

settings for starting standby mode, hibernate mode, turning off the monitor,

and turning off the hard drive.

NOTICE: If you set the hard drive to time-out before the monitor does, your

computer may appear to be locked up. To recover, press any key on the keyboard or

click the mouse. To avoid this problem, always set the monitor to time-out before the

hard drive.

The Power schemes drop-down menu displays the following schemes:

•

conservation.

•

Home/Office Desk

— If you want your home or office computer to run

with little power conservation.

•

Portable/Laptop

— If your computer is a portable computer that you use

for traveling.

•

Presentation

— If you want your computer to run without interruption

(using no power conservation).

•

Power Management Options in Windows Vista

The Microsoft Vista™ power management features are designed to reduce the

amount of electricity your computer uses when it is on and you are not using

it. You can reduce power to just the monitor or the hard drive. Windows Vista

sets the default "off" state to standby mode, or you can set hibernate mode to

reduce power even further.

38 Setting Up and Using Your Computer

To exit from standby mode, press a key on the keyboard or move the mouse.

NOTICE: If your computer loses power while in standby mode, it may lose data.

Windows Vista has a new feature called Hybrid Sleep mode - this saves the data

into a file and also puts the system into standby. If you lose power, the system will

have retained your data on the hard drive and resumes to the same state you left it.

Go to Help and Support and search for hybrid sleep for further information. Hybrid

Sleep provides fast wake if the system is in standby, but also keeps your data safe

by storing it to the hard drive.

Hibernate Mode

Hibernate mode conserves power by copying system data to a reserved area on

the hard drive and then completely turning off the computer. When the

computer exits from hibernate mode, the desktop is restored to the state it

was in before it entered hibernate mode. Windows Vista may mask Hibernate

from the user if Hybrid Sleep is enabled. For additional information, go to

Help and Support and search for hibernate.

To activate hibernate mode immediately (if available):

Enabling SpeedStep™ Technology

SpeedStep technology controls your computer's processor performance

automatically, dynamically adjusting the operating frequency and voltage,

according to the task at hand. When an application does not require full

performance, significant amounts of power can be saved. Performance is

designed to still be responsive, with maximum processor performance being

delivered when required, and automatic power savings when possible.

Windows Vista automatically sets Intel Speedstep technologies in the Dell

Recommended, Balanced, and Power Saver power plans. It is disabled in the

High Performance power plan.

About RAID Configurations

This section provides an overview of the RAID configuration that you might

have selected when you purchased your computer. Although several RAID

configurations are available, Dell offers only RAID level 1 for its Vostro

computers. RAID level 1 configuration is recommended for the data integrity

requirements of digital photography and audio.

The Intel RAID controller on your computer can only create a RAID volume

using two physical drives. If a third drive is present, then that drive cannot be

made part of a RAID volume using the Intel RAID configuration program,

although it can be used as a spare drive in a RAID 1 configuration (see

"Creating a Spare Hard Drive" on page 46). However, if four drives are present

in your computer, then each pair of drives can be set as a RAID level 1

volume. The drives should be the same size in order to ensure that the larger

drive does not contain unallocated (and therefore unusable) space.

RAID Level 1 Configuration

RAID level 1 uses a data-redundancy storage technique known as "mirroring."

When data is written to the primary drive, it is then duplicated, or mirrored,

on the other drive. A RAID level 1 configuration sacrifices high data access

rates for its data redundancy advantages.

Setting Up and Using Your Computer 41

If a drive failure occurs, subsequent read and write operations are directed to

the surviving drive. A replacement drive can then be rebuilt using the data

from the surviving drive. Also, because data is duplicated on both drives, two

120-GB RAID level 1 drives collectively have a maximum of 120 GB on which

to store data.

NOTE: In a RAID level 1 configuration, the size of the configuration is equal to the

size of the smallest drive in the configuration.

Configuring Your Hard Drives for RAID

At some point you may want to configure your computer for RAID if you did

not select a RAID configuration when you purchased your computer. You

must have at least two hard drives installed in your computer to set up a

RAID configuration. For instructions on how to install a hard drive, see "Hard

Drives" on page 126.

You can use one of two methods to configure RAID hard drive volumes. One

method uses the Intel

®

Option ROM utility, and is performed before you

install the operating system onto the hard drive. The second method uses the

Intel Matrix Storage Manager or Intel Storage Utility, and this method is

performed after you have installed the operating system and the Intel Storage

Matrix Storage Manager

If you already have one hard drive with the operating system installed on it,

and you want to add a second hard drive and reconfigure both drives into a

RAID volume without losing the existing operating system and any data, you

need to use the migrating option (see "Migrating to a RAID 1 Volume" on

page 45 or "Migrating to a RAID 1 Volume" on page 45). Create a RAID 1

Volume only when:

• You are adding two new drives to an existing single-drive computer (and

the operating system is on the single drive), and you want to configure the

two new drives into a RAID volume.

Setting Up and Using Your Computer 45

Deleting a RAID Volume

NOTE: While this procedure deletes the RAID 1 volume, it also splits the RAID 1

volume into two non-RAID hard drives with a partition, and leaves any existing data

files intact. Deleting a RAID 0 volume, however, destroys all data on the volume.

Transferring Information to a New Computer

You can use your operating system "wizards" to help you transfer files and

other data from one computer to another—for example, from an old

computer to a new computer. For instructions, see the following section that

corresponds to the operating system your computer is running.

Transferring Information using Windows XP

The Microsoft Windows XP operating system provides the Files and Settings

Transfer Wizard to move data from a source computer to a new computer.

You can transfer data, such as:

• E-mail messages

• Toolbar settings

• Window sizes

• Internet bookmarks

You can transfer the data to the new computer over a network or serial

connection, or you can store it on removable media, such as a writable CD,

for transfer to the new computer.

48 Setting Up and Using Your Computer

NOTE: You can transfer information from an old computer to a new computer by

directly connecting a serial cable to the input/output (I/O) ports of the two

computers. To transfer data over a serial connection, you must access the Network

Connections utility from the Control Panel and perform additional configuration

steps, such as setting up an advanced connection and designating the host

computer and the guest computer.

For instructions on setting up a direct cable connection between two computers,

see Microsoft Knowledge Base Article #305621, titled How to Set Up a Direct Cable

Connection Between Two Computers in Windows XP. This information may not be

available in certain countries.

For transferring information to a new computer, you must run the Files and

Settings Transfer Wizard. You can use the optional Operating System media

for this process or you can create a wizard disk with the Files and Settings

Transfer Wizard.
