Action:
CAUTION: The installation, diagnostic or maintenance tasks below should be performed by a qualified computer technician.
NOTE: The CD-ROM requires two connections in order to work properly. The first is the bus connection which allows the transfer of data. Usually this is a SCSI, IDE or EIDE connection. The second is the RCA plug on the back of the CD-ROM. External CD-ROM's use RCA connectors that look like speaker jacks on a stereo. Internal CD-ROM's require a connector to the sound card.
1) Plug the speakers into the audio jack of the back of the computer.
2) Connect the sound card cable to the CD-ROM drive and the sound card.
