Working on Your Computer

Before Working Inside Your Computer

Use the following safety guidelines to help protect your computer from potential damage and to help to ensure your personal safety. Unless otherwise noted, each procedure included in this document assumes that the following conditions exist:

• You have performed the steps in Working on Your Computer.

• You have read the safety information that shipped with your computer.

• A component can be replaced or--if purchased separately--installed by performing the removal procedure in reverse order.

WARNING: Before working inside your computer, read the safety information that shipped with your computer. For additional safety best practices information, see the Regulatory Compliance Homepage at www.dell.com/ regulatory_compliance

CAUTION: Many repairs may only be done by a certified service technician. You should only perform troubleshooting and simple repairs as authorized in your product documentation, or as directed by the online or telephone service and support team. Damage due to servicing that is not authorized by Dell is not covered by your warranty. Read and follow the safety instructions that came with the product.

CAUTION: To avoid electrostatic discharge, ground yourself by using a wrist grounding strap or by periodically touching an unpainted metal surface, such as a connector on the back of the computer.

CAUTION: Handle components and cards with care. Do not touch the components or contacts on a card. Hold a card by its edges or by its metal mounting bracket. Hold a component such as a processor by its edges, not by its pins.

CAUTION: When you disconnect a cable, pull on its connector or on its pull-tab, not on the cable itself. Some cables have connectors with locking tabs; if you are disconnecting this type of cable, press in on the locking tabs before you disconnect the cable. As you pull connectors apart, keep them evenly aligned to avoid bending any connector pins. Also, before you connect a cable, ensure that both connectors are correctly oriented and aligned.

NOTE: The color of your computer and certain components may appear differently than shown in this document.

To avoid damaging your computer, perform the following steps before you begin working inside the computer.

1. Ensure that your work surface is flat and clean to prevent the computer cover from being scratched.

2. Turn off your computer.

3. If the computer is connected to a docking device (docked), undock it.

CAUTION: To disconnect a network cable, first unplug the cable from your computer and then unplug the cable from the network device.

4. Disconnect all network cables from the computer.

5. Disconnect your computer and all attached devices from their electrical outlets.

6. Turn the computer upside-down on a flat work surface.

NOTE: To avoid damaging the system board, you must remove the main battery before you service the computer.

7. Remove the main battery.

8. Turn the computer top-side up.

9. Press the power button to ground the system board.

CAUTION: To guard against electrical shock, always unplug your computer from the electrical outlet before opening the display.

CAUTION: Before touching anything inside your computer, ground yourself by touching an unpainted metal surface, such as the metal at the back of the computer. While you work, periodically touch an unpainted metal surface to dissipate static electricity, which could harm internal components.

10. Remove any installed SmartCards from the slots.

The touch keyboard is like a standard keyboard, you can enter text by tapping the keys with your stylus or your thumb.

The writing pad and character pad convert handwriting into typed text. You can write continuously on the writing pad, like writing on a piece of lined paper. Use the character pad to enter one character at a time. The character pad converts your handwriting to typed text, one letter, number or symbol at a time, but does not take the context of the full word into account and does not take advantage of the handwriting dictionary. To switch to the character pad in Input Panel, tap Tools, and then Write character by character

To minimize the Touch keyboard, click the minimize icon.

Stylus Flicks

Stylus flicks enable you to use the stylus to perform actions that normally require a keyboard, such as pressing <Page Up> or using the directional arrow keys. Stylus flicks are quick, directional gestures. You can quickly draw a short line in one of eight directions. When a stylus flick is recognized, the Tablet PC performs the action assigned.

Pen and Touch Settings

Using the stylus, you can adjust how quickly you tap the screen when you double-tap the screen. It also allows you define the spatial tolerance.

The Press and Hold settings allow you to define the speed and the duration for a right-click action.

Touch Usage

One of the key advantages of the Tablet PC is the ability to easily switch from pen input to touch input.

When you use Touch Mode , a translucent image of a computer mouse, called the touch pointer, floats beneath your finger. The touch pointer has left and right mouse buttons that you can tap with your finger. You use the area beneath the buttons to drag the touch pointer.

To show the touch pointer, go to Control Panel → Pen and Touch and clicking on the Touch tab. In the Touch action section, select the option Show visual feedback when touching the screen
