installation procedure, follow the manufacturer's
instructions.

puter. Your computer may detect a configuration
change and prompt you to proceed to the Setup

ure, enter your computer's Setup, typically by key
selection or keyboard combinations during power-on

computer fails to boot up, power off, remove the new
hard drive and return your system to its original con-
figuration. Reboot and enter your computer's Setup.
