Notebook Training Manual for Acer TravelMate 530
Where do I start?
Your notebook is installed with Windows XP – a very different version of Windows.
Please take your time to explore the new operating system.
Log in
1. After turning on your notebook, the
Welcome to Windows screen is
displayed, where you are prompted to
log in.
2. Press <Ctrl>+<Alt>+<Del> to log in.
The Log On to Windows screen is
displayed, where you are prompted for
your user name and password.
3. Check that your User name is correct
(see About user names, below).
4. Type your password.
5. Tap OK.
6. The desktop screen is displayed.
A b o u t u s e r n a m e s
The first time you turn on your notebook, you will be prompted for your user name and
password. Your user name is supplied by the Department. If you use a computer at school and
have been granted access to the school's admin network then you will already have a user
name and password. You can use these as soon as the notebook is linked in to the school
network. If you do not have a user name and password, either contact your school's system
administrator or phone the Customer Service Centre on 9264 5555 (metropolitan) or
1800 012 828 (country).
A b o u t p a s s w o r d s
If you are using your user name and password for the first time, you will be prompted to
change your password to something that only you know. Type the password in twice as
requested. The next time you log in, you will only type your password once.
Your password should be something you will remember, yet be obscure enough that
no one will guess it.
You should not give this password to anyone but it is very important that you
remember it as you cannot log in without it. If you forget your password, you should
contact the Customer Service Centre on 9264 5555 (metropolitan) or 1800 012 828
(country).
