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 the 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.
You are cautioned that any changes or
modifications not expressly approved in
this manual could void your authority to
operate this equipment.
Only peripherals (computer input/output

FCC Part 68
This equipment complies with Part 68 of the
FCC rules. The FCC Ringer Equivalence
Number (REN) for this equipment is 0.7. If
requested, this information must be provided
to the telephone company.
This modem uses the USOC RJ-11 telephone
jack.
The REN is used to determine the quantity of
devices which may be connected to the
telephone line. Excessive RENs on the
telephone line may result in the devices not
ringing in response to an incoming call. In
most, but not all areas, the sum of the RENs
should not exceed five (5.0). To be certain of
the number of devices that may be connected
to the line, as determined by the total RENs,
contact the telephone company to determine
the maximum REN for the calling area.
If the terminal equipment causes harm to the
telephone network, the telephone company
will notify you in advance that temporary
discontinuance of service may be required.
But if advance notice is not practical, the
telephone company will notify the customer
as soon as possible. Also, you will be advised
of your right to file a complaint with the FCC
if you believe it is necessary.
The telephone company may make changes
in its facilities, equipment, operations or
procedures that could affect the operations of
the equipment. If this happens, the telephone
company will provide advance notice in
order for you to make the necessary
modifications in order to maintain
uninterrupted service.
If trouble is experienced with this modem,
for repair or warranty information, please
contact 1-888-4SONY-PC, or write to the
Sony Customer Information Center, 12451
Gateway Blvd., Fort Myers, FL 33913. If the
trouble is causing harm to the telephone
network, the telephone company may
request that you remove the equipment from
the network until the problem is resolved.
Repair of this equipment should be made
only by a Sony Service Center or Sony
authorized agent. For the Sony Service
Center nearest you, call 1-888-4SONYPC (1-
888-476-6972).
This equipment cannot be used on public coin
service provided by the telephone company.

Protection Act of 1991
(United States)
The Telephone Consumer Protection Act of
1991 makes it unlawful for any person to use
a computer or other electronic device to send
any message via a telephone facsimile
machine unless such message clearly
contains, in a margin at the top or bottom of
each transmitted page or on the first page of
the transmission, the date and time it is sent
and an identification of the business, other
entity, or individual sending the message,
and the telephone number of the sending
machine or such business, other entity, or

Covering an Open I/O Slot
Slot covers prevent air from escaping through the empty hole. If air
escapes, the components inside the computer cannot be properly cooled.
This may damage some components, especially the main processor
(which generates the most heat).
1
Slide the tip of the slot cover (removed earlier) between the chassis
and system board.
2
Push the slot cover down until it rests firmly on the lip in the chassis.
All add-in card brackets and slot covers rest on this lip.
3
Replace the screw (removed earlier) to secure the I/O slot cover.

Installing a 3½” Internal Hard Disk Drive
Your system comes with an available bay to hold an additional 3½” hard
disk drive. The drive you install must not require front panel access. The
hard disk drive access light blinks when either internal drive is active.
1
Configure the jumpers on the new drive as a primary slave (see your
drives documentation for configuration instructions).
2
Disconnect the power cord from the computer.
3
Remove the cover (see Removing the Cover on page 22).

Before opening the system unit, save any open files, exit Windows, turn off
the power of the computer and all attached peripherals, and then unplug the
power cord.

About User and Supervisor Passwords
The system allows you to specify up to two passwords (a User password
and a Supervisor password) in the CMOS Setup Utility. The User
password is required; the Supervisor password is optional.
Access to the CMOS Setup Utility depends on which passwords were
previously set, as indicated next.
If you set these passwords... ...the following passwords are required:
User password only User password is required at bootup.
Supervisor password only No password is required at bootup.
Supervisor password is required by most
setup options.
Both passwords User password is required at bootup.
Supervisor password is required by most
