Options
You can add a number of options to make your computer even more 
powerful and convenient to use. Refer to Chapter 8, 
, for 
details. The following options are available: 
Windows Mobility 
Center
This section describes the Windows Mobility 
Center. Mobility Center is a utility for accessing 
several mobile PC settings quickly in one 
window. A maximum of eight tiles are prepared 
as the operating system default. Two additional 
tiles are also added to your Mobility Center.
Installing the "TOSHIBA Extended Tiles for 
Windows Mobility Center" package will add the 
following functions.

Lock your computer without turning it off. This 
has the same function as the Lock button at 
the bottom of the right pane of the start menu.
TOSHIBA Assist:
Open the TOSHIBA Assist if it is already 
installed in your computer.
TOSHIBA USB Sleep 
and Charge Utility
This utility is able to either enable or disable the 
USB Sleep and Charge function.
This utility shows the positions of USB ports that 
support the USB Sleep and Charge function and 
displays the battery’s remaining capacity.

* The availability of DDRII or DDRIII depends on the model you purchased.
Battery pack 
An additional battery pack can be purchased 
from your TOSHIBA dealer. Use it as a spare to 
increase your computer operating time.

frequently, it may be convenient to purchase an 
additional AC adaptor for each site so you will not
