Recovering from a Loss of Electrical Power

Loss of electrical power will cause your Internet PC to automatically turn off. This may cause loss of data because the Microsoft Windows operating system is not able to properly close all files and programs. To protect your data, learn to save your work frequently.

Loss of power may be caused by one of the following:

• Electrical power service is interrupted.

• Power cord is accidentally disconnected.

Power Surges and Sags

If power surges or sags, the display and status lights may flicker and the computer may automatically restart. If an improper shutdown occurs, ScanDisk, a Microsoft Windows utility program, will automatically run once power is restored to the computer. ScanDisk will determine if the improper shutdown caused any errors on the hard disk. These errors may occur if the Microsoft Windows operating system was not able to properly close all files before the shutdown. If no errors are found, the restart process will continue. If ScanDisk does detect errors, follow the instructions shown to continue the restart process. Work that was not saved prior to the lockup may be lost.

Restarting Your Computer After a Power Failure

If a power failure occurs or you accidentally disconnect the power cord while the computer is turned on, turn off the computer until you are sure normal service has been restored. The next time you turn on the computer, ScanDisk may run to check the hard disk for errors that may have been caused by the improper shutdown.

Electrical Storms

If you are expecting an electrical storm to pass through your area, it is a good idea to ensure that your Internet PC is turned off. You should disconnect the modem line from the telephone wall jack and remove all the computer power cords from electrical outlets.

Identifying and Removing Computer Viruses

Recognizing a Computer Virus

A computer virus is a program that damages or erases files or programs. Your computer can become “infected” with a virus when you open a contaminated program or file. Some signs that your computer may be infected include:

• Strange characters or crude statements suddenly appearing on your screen

• Hard drive, memory, or software error messages

• Damage to files or directories for no apparent reason

• Strange responses to commands

• Sharp decrease in system performance or program speed

Using McAfee Anti-Virus Software

Your Internet PC is equipped with anti-virus software. Scanning your computer for viruses is an important part of keeping your files safe from becoming infected with computer viruses. However, hundreds of new viruses are created each month, so you should update the anti-virus tool often.

Creating an Anti-Virus Emergency Diskette

Having an Anti-Virus Emergency Diskette available to use is an essential part of an effective virus prevention program.

Use VirusScan’s Emergency Diskette utility to create an Emergency Diskette. If you ever need to start your computer from the Emergency Diskette, we recommend you perform a scan of your computer and its contents immediately after starting your computer.

Learning about Your Modem

Your Internet PC is equipped with a 56K V.90 data/fax modem. Before using your modem to connect to the Internet, you must establish an account with an Internet service provider (ISP).

If your Internet PC is equipped with a digital modem, please refer to the digital modem features guide.

Performance Features

Your modem has several features that significantly enhance its performance. These features include the following:

• 56K ITU V.90 compliant – Your modem is ready to operate using the

International Telecommunications Union V.90 standard.

• K56flex compliant – If your ISP uses the K56flex protocol, the modem will

automatically use this protocol to establish a connection.

56K ITU V.90 Standard

If you are able to connect to an ISP using the V.90 standard, the modem will be able to download files at a maximum speed of 56 kilobits per second (Kbps), over standard telephone lines. Download speeds will vary with telephone line conditions.

When using the V.90 standard, download speeds are faster than upload speeds. The maximum download speed is 56 Kbps and the maximum upload speed is

33.6 Kbps. Transmission rates will vary depending on telephone line conditions. The V.90 and K56flex protocols are designed only to increase the download

transmission rate from V.90 or K56flex compliant digital sources. Maximum achievable download transmission rates are currently unknown, may not reach 56 Kbps, and will vary with telephone line conditions.

Understanding Point-to-Point Connections

You can set up your modem to call another modem directly. This is known as a point-to-point connection. During a direct modem-to-modem call, the download and upload speeds are limited to 33.6 Kbps.

Surfing the Internet

The Internet is a worldwide network of computer networks. Computer networks are two or more computers linked or connected together by cables or phone lines. These computers are linked together to provide seemingly endless amounts of information for research, education, commerce, and entertainment purposes. This information is stored on computers called Web servers. Web servers are set up exclusively for Internet users to access this information.

The graphic below illustrates how a Web site stored on a Web server in North America can be viewed all around the world.

Surfing the Internet

9-1

The Internet

When you “surf” the Internet, you are accessing these millions of computers and reviewing the information that they have stored on their Web servers.

Internet Addresses (URLs)

Surfing the Internet is made possible by the addresses assigned to these linked computers. The Web address (also called the Uniform Resource Locator, or URL) allows other computers to view the information as Web pages. For example, the Compaq Web site address is www.compaq.com. When you access this address, the Compaq Web site and all associated Web pages can be viewed on your Internet PC.

Surfing the Internet

Understanding the World Wide Web

The World Wide Web, also known as the Web, is a popular format that has been set up on the Internet specifically for publishing and accessing information.

This information is formatted into attractive pages in the form of text, graphics, animation, audio, and video called Web sites. Web sites also contain hyperlinks to other Web sites so you can easily follow a path of associated ideas. Hyperlinks provide a means for moving from page to page, computer to computer, and idea to idea on the Web.

To begin surfing the Internet, you must have the following:

• A physical connection to the Internet, such as a modem through a telephone

line – a modem is the hardware that your computer uses to send and receive information on the Internet through standard telephone lines.

• An active Internet Service Provider (ISP) account – an Internet service

provider serves as your entry point to the Internet and to the Web.

• A Web browser installed on your computer – a Web browser is a software

program that allows you to view Web sites.

Choosing an Internet Service Provider

Compaq makes it easy to connect to the Internet by offering Compaq Easy Internet Access, but if you choose to install a third party ISP account, refer to their documentation for setup instructions. Any ISP of your choice can be installed at anytime; however, it is recommended that you first complete the initial system registration process.

Using a Web Browser

A Web browser is a program that allows you to see Web sites on the Internet. Your Internet PC comes preinstalled with Microsoft Internet Explorer and

Netscape Navigator browsers.

Surfing Tips

After you have set up an Internet connection with your ISP and you log on to the Internet, you are ready to surf. To help your surfing experience be productive, we have provided a few tips, after a quick review on the Internet.

To begin surfing the Internet you must use a Web browser, such as Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator. However, some ISPs, such as America Online, require you to log on to their service before you can use a Web browser.

There are two ways to connect to the Internet:

• By starting the ISP program.

• By starting the Web browser program.

If you start the ISP first, there are two ways to begin surfing the Internet:

• By using the ISP connection to the Internet (usually an icon on the task menu).

• By minimizing the ISP program and starting the Web browser from the

Windows desktop.

Each of the browsers has a default “home” page. The home page is the first page displayed as the browser launches. Compaq has configured the browser to launch a Compaq-recommended Web site, which you can customize to your own taste. Of course you can change this home page if you want to start at another Web site. Look in the browser Help files for instructions on resetting the default home page.

Accessing a Search Engine

Once you access the Internet, your can begin searching for information using a search engine.

A search engine is a type of program found on various Web sites that allows you to search the Internet for keywords you type in. The search engine will return a list of Web pages that have your keywords in them.

There are many search engines to choose from on the Internet, such as AltaVista. To go to one of these search engines, type in the URL, such as www.altavista.com in the Address box. This will take you to the AltaVista home page.

The browsers have a Search button that will automatically take you to their recommended search engine, and your Internet PC comes with a button that takes you to a search engine.

Surfing the Internet

9-7

Using a Search Engine

The following points are additional tips on how to find information on the Internet using a search engine:

• When entering keywords, you can enter an entire sentence to limit the search to

a more specific topic. For example, for information on carving a turkey, type carving a turkey in the keyword box instead of just turkey.

• After entering a keyword search, the search engine that you are using will

return a list of all Web sites that contain your keywords. You must click the link to a Web site to find more detailed information.

• Some Web sites are connected to other Web sites with hyperlinks often

appearing as colored, underlined text. When you click a hyperlink, you access the Web page associated with that link. The new Web page may be from the same Web site or a Web site in another country.

For practice, search for the Compaq Web site by typing the following URL into the

Address box of your Web browser:
