Satellite M300 Series User's Guide

Getting Started

Registering your computer with Toshiba

Product registration is strongly recommended, and allows Toshiba

to send you periodic updates, announcements, and special offers

applicable to your product. Product registration can be completed

during the initial start up process of your computer. If you decide

not to register at that time, you can either double-click the Toshiba

Registration icon on your desktop or go to the Toshiba Web site at

www.register.toshiba.com at a later time. Failure to complete

Product Registration will not diminish Customer rights under the

Toshiba limited Warranty.

To register online, you must be connected to the Internet.

Adding optional external devices

Before adding external devices or memory, Toshiba recommends

setting up your software. See “Setting up your software” on page 43.

After starting your computer for the first time you may want to:

❖ Add more memory (see “Adding memory (optional)” on

page 50)

❖ Connect a mouse (see “Using a mouse” on page 62)

❖ Connect a full-size keyboard (see “Using an external

keyboard” on page 62)

❖ Connect an external monitor (see “Using external display

devices” on page 60)

❖ Connect a local printer (see “Connecting a printer” on page 62)

❖ Connect an optional external disk drive (see “Connecting an

optional external diskette drive” on page 63)

❖ Install ExpressCards

(see “Using an ExpressCard

” on

page 123)
