remove the additional memory, and power ON to see if the problem is due to incompatible
memory.
2. Un-install software applications. If you have installed software applications recently, they may
not be compatible with your system. Try to un-install them in Windows Safe Mode.

7. Much of my system speed has been reduced by NIS.
NIS will reduce your system speed (both booting and running performance) if you are using NIS’s
full protection functions, NIS scans and tracks all data in the background. You can speed up your
system by stopping NIS’s auto scan functions in system bootup. You can then scan virus manually
when your computer is not in use.
8. Cannot uninstall NIS.
Go to Control Panel | Add or Remove Programs. Look for “Norton Internet Security 200x (Symantec
Corporation)”. Click Change/Remove and choose Remove All to uninstall NIS.
9. Windows Firewall must be stopped before installing “Norton Internet Security” or “Norton
Personal Firewall”. How to stop Windows Firewall:
1. Click Start and then Control Panel.
2. You will have one of two control panels. Click on the Security Center icon.
3. Click on the Windows Firewall icon beneath the status updates.
4. Click Off and then click OK.
10. Why is the “Privacy Control” icon showing ‘x’?
Turn off Privacy Control from “Status & Settings”.

Byte (Binary Term)
One byte is a group of eight contiguous bits. A byte is used to represent a single alphanumeric character,
punctuation mark, or other symbol.
Clock Throttling
Chipset function which allows the processors clock to be stopped and started at a known duty cycle.
Clock throttling is used for power savings, thermal management, and reducing processing speed.

CPU (Central Processing Unit)
The CPU, sometimes called “Processor,” actually functions as the “brain” of the computer. It interprets
and executes program commands and processes data stored in memory.
Device Driver
A device driver is a special set of instructions that allows the computers operating system to communicate
with devices such as VGA, audio, Ethernet, printer, or modem.

optically safe, requiring no controls (Class 1) to very hazardous, requiring strict controls (Class 4).
CLASS 1: A Class 1 laser or laser system emits levels of optical energy that are eye-safe and consequently
require no controls. An example of this class of laser system is the checkout scanning device found
in most grocery stores or lasers used in optical drives.
CLASS 2 & CLASS 3A: Class 2 and Class 3A lasers emit visible, continuous-wave (CW) optical ra-
diation levels slightly above the maximum permissible exposure (MPE) level. Although these lasers
can cause eye damage, their brightness usually causes observers to look away or blink before eye
damage occurs. These lasers have strict administrative controls requiring placement of signs warning
personnel not to stare directly into the beam. Class 3A lasers must not be viewed with optically-aided
devices.
CLASS 3B: Class 3B lasers, and Class 3A lasers with outputs of 2.5mW, are hazardous to personnel

appropriate protective eye wear during any operation of the laser. Class 3B lasers have both admin-
istrative and physical controls to protect personnel. Physical controls include limited access work
areas. Administrative controls include special warning signs posted outside the entrances to the laser
work spaces and lights outside the entrances that warn personnel when the lasers are in use.
CLASS 4: Class 4 lasers are high-power lasers that will cause damage to unprotected eyes and skin

TPM (Trusted Platform Module) (on selected models)
The TPM is a security hardware device on the system board that will hold computer-generated keys for
encryption. It is a hardware-based solution that can help avoid attacks by hackers looking to capture
passwords and encryption keys to sensitive data. The TPM provides the ability to the PC or Notebook
PC to run applications more secure and to make transactions and communication more trustworthy.
Twisted-Pair Cable
The cable used to connect the Ethernet card to a host (generally a Hub or Switch) is called a straight-

compatible with RJ-11 telephone connectors. If connecting two computers together without a hub in
between, a crossover twisted-pair is required.

Federal Communications Commission Statement
This device complies with FCC Rules Part 15. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
This device may not cause harmful interference, and
This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired
operation.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a class B digital device, pursuant
to Part 15 of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) rules. These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates,
uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions,
may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference
will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or
television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged
to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is
connected.
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
WARNING! The use of a shielded-type power cord is required in order to meet FCC
emission limits and to prevent interference to the nearby radio and television recep-
tion. It is essential that only the supplied power cord be used. Use only shielded
cables to connect I/O devices to this equipment. You are cautioned that changes or
