Registering your computer with Toshiba
Product registration is strongly recommended, and allows Toshiba 
to send you periodic updates, announcements, and special offers 
applicable to your product. Product registration can be completed 
during the initial start up process of your computer. If you decide 
not to register at that time, you can either double-click the Toshiba 
Registration icon on your desktop or go to the Toshiba Web site at 
www.register.toshiba.com at a later time. Failure to complete 
Product Registration will not diminish Customer rights under the 
Toshiba limited Warranty.
To register online, you must be connected to the Internet.
Adding optional external devices
Before adding external devices or memory, Toshiba recommends 
setting up your software. See “Setting up your software” on page 42.
After starting your computer for the first time you may want to:
❖ Add more memory (see “Adding memory (optional)” on 
page 49)
❖ Connect a mouse (see “Using a mouse” on page 68)
❖ Connect a full-size keyboard (see “Using an external 
keyboard” on page 68)
❖ Connect an external monitor (see “Using external display 
devices” on page 66)
❖ Connect a local printer (see “Connecting a printer” on page 68)
