Connecting External Devices
To use hot keys from an external PS/2 keyboard, substitute left CTRL+left ALT for the
computer Fn key. For example, to access Fn+F12, press left CTRL+left ALT+F12.
External PS/2 keyboards support only Fn+F5, Fn+F7, and Fn+F1. USB keyboards do
not support Fn hot keys.

To connect a USB device

The universal serial buses (USB) on the computer and expansion base provide a
bi-directional serial interface for adding peripheral devices such as a mouse, keyboard,
game controller, serial and parallel port, and scanner on a single bus.
• Attach the device's USB cable to a USB port. Windows automatically recognizes the
USB device. Some USB devices can be connected to the computer in series—this is
called a daisy-chain connection.
If you have problems making this connection, contact the device manufacturer and the
HP Customer Care web site (www.hp.com/go/support) for the latest version of the
driver for the device.

To connect an audio device

Your computer includes a built-in microphone (in front of the right display hinge) that
you can use to record voice, sound, and music. You can also plug in headphones, external
speakers, an external microphone, or—if docked—a stereo input source (such as a CD
player).
The audio jacks are three-terminal stereo jacks. They are not compatible with two-
terminal mono plugs. Connecting a mono plug into the speaker-out jack may
damage your notebook.
