NOTE
Using external speakers or headphones
Your computer is equipped with a full stereo sound system
with internal speakers. Instead of using the internal speakers,
you can connect headphones or a pair of external stereo
speakers.
You can only record 60 seconds at a time.
The microphone setting on your computer might be set to
Mute. To check this, click Start, All Programs, Accessories,
Entertainment, and then Volume Control.
Before putting on headphones to listen to an audio CD, turn
the volume dial down, and do not set the volume too high
when using the headphones. Continuous exposure to loud
sound can harm your hearing.
TECHNICAL NOTE: Use amplified speakers that require an
external power source. Other types of speakers will be
inadequate to produce sound from the computer.
