Completing System Configuration
Once the motherboard is installed in the system housing,
you can proceed to connect or install whatever internal
devices you will use to complete the system. These will
at least include an AGP display card and disk drives.
After that, having replaced the system housing cover, you
can connect external peripherals to complete the process
of preparing the system for use. These will include at
least a video display and a keyboard and probably a point-
ing device. Please see the next chapter for information
on completing these final hardware installation steps and
installing Operating System and support software.
