Configuring the audio jacks

If the back of your computer has five audio jacks, they are universal jacks (which use a

round mini-jack connector). The five jacks can be used for more than one purpose. For

example, the blue jack on the computer can be a stereo in jack or a stereo out jack. For

more information on how each jack can be used, see “Back” on page 10. To use the

universal audio jacks for something other than the default audio device, you need to

configure them.

To configure the universal audio jacks:

1 Connect your audio device(s) to the computer audio jack(s).

2 Click Start, then click Control Panel. The Control Panel window opens. If your Control

Panel is in Category View, click

Sounds, Speech, and Audio Devices. Click/Double-click

Sounds and Audio Devices, then click Advanced under Speaker Settings. The Advanced

Audio Properties dialog box opens.

-OR-

If your computer has the Realtek Sound Effect Manager installed, double-click the

Sound Effect Manager icon on the taskbar. The Realtek dialog box opens.

3 Configure the audio jacks for your speaker setup.

Connecting the modem

If your computer has a dial-up modem installed, connect it to a standard telephone line

as follows.

To connect the modem:

1 Insert one end of the modem cable into the modem jack on the back of your

computer.

2 Insert the other end of the modem cable into a telephone wall jack. The modem will

not work with digital or PBX telephone lines.

3 Start your computer, then start your communications program.

Warning

To reduce the risk of fire, use only No. 26 AWG or larger

telecommunications line cord.
