You can connect a USB keyboard while the computer is on.
To connect the keyboard to the computer or the optional Slim 
Port Replicator, gently push the keyboard cable into the USB 
port.
Using an external monitor 
If you prefer to use an external monitor, you can attach one to 
your computer’s RGB (monitor) port or to the RGB (monitor) 
port on the optional Slim Port Replicator. 
Connecting the monitor 
1
If you are connecting the monitor to your computer or to 
the optional Slim Port Replicator, and the replicator is 
connected to your computer, turn off the computer.
Make sure the computer is off before you attach the monitor. 
Connecting a monitor with the computer’s power on may 
damage the monitor, the computer, or both.
2
Connect the monitor’s video cable to the RGB (monitor) 
port on the computer or the optional Slim Port Replicator.
3
Connect the monitor’s power cable to a power source.
4
Turn on the external monitor.
5
Turn on the computer.
The computer will use the external monitor and disable the 
built-in display panel.
If your external monitor can display high-resolution video 
modes (greater than 800 x 600), you can take advantage of 
this feature by changing the video mode in Display Properties 
in the Control Panel.
