Peripherals, graphics cards, modems, USB sticks — just what the heck is
all this stuff?
Collectively, these items belong to the computer hardware category. Your CPU
and monitor are hardware. So are the cards slotted into your CPU that provide
memory to run software and the mechanisms for playing sounds and
videos. Printers are hardware, as is anything else that plugs into your
computer.
Installing a new piece of hardware used to be a great occasion for groaning
and moaning. Nothing was compatible, everything installed differently, and
Windows itself didn’t have much in the way of popular drivers (software that
runs various pieces of hardware) ready and waiting. That all changed with
Plug and Play technology, which automates the installation process and some
standardizing of connections through Universal Serial Bus (USB) ports.
Windows now comes with a full framework of drivers for hardware devices,
and whatever it doesn’t have is usually easy to download from any hardware
manufacturer’s Web site. In this chapter, you find out how you can
- Install and set up common peripherals. Peripherals include a monitor,
printer, and modem.
- Install and set up cards that slot into your CPU. Add sound and
video cards.
- Partition your hard drive. Add hard drive partitions to optimize
memory.
keyboard settings
Modify How Your Keyboard Works
- Choose Start➪Control Panel➪Ease of Access and then click the Change How Your Keyboard Works link.
- In the resulting Make the Keyboard Easier to Use dialog box , make any of these settings:
- Turn On Mouse Keys to control your mouse by keyboard commands. If you turn on this setting, click the Set Up Mouse Keys link to specify settings for this feature.
- Select the Turn On Sticky Keys feature to enable keystroke combinations to be pressed one at a time, rather than in combination.
- Turn On Toggle Keys. You can set up Windows to play a sound when you press Caps Lock, Num Lock, or Scroll Lock (which I do all the time by mistake!).
- If you sometimes press a key very lightly or press it so hard it activates twice, you can use the Turn On Filter Keys setting to adjust repeat rates. Use the Set Up Filter Keys link to fine-tune settings if you make this choice.
- To have Windows highlight keyboard shortcuts and access keys with an
underline wherever these shortcuts appear, click that setting.
- If you want to avoid having windows shift automatically when you move them to the edge of your screen, use the Make It Easier to Manage Windows setting.
- To save the new settings, click OK.
