Getting Started

HEALTH WARNING
Use of a keyboard or mouse may be linked to serious injuries or disorders.
When using a computer, as with many activities, you may experience occasional discomfort in your
hands, arms, shoulders, neck, or other parts of your body. However, if you experience symptoms
such as persistent or recurring discomfort, pain, throbbing, aching, tingling, numbness, burning
sensation, or stiffness, DO NOT IGNORE THESE WARNING SIGNS. PROMPTLY SEE A QUALIFIED
HEALTH PROFESSIONAL, even if symptoms occur when you are not working at your computer.
Symptoms like these can be associated with painful and sometimes permanently disabling injuries
or disorders of the nerves, muscles, tendons, or other parts of the body. These musculoskeletal
disorders (MSDs) include carpal tunnel syndrome, tendonitis, tenosynovitis, and other conditions.
While researchers are not yet able to answer many questions about MSDs, there is general
agreement that many factors may be linked to their occurrence, including: overall health, stress and
how one copes with it, medical and physical conditions, and how a person positions and uses his or
her body during work and other activities (including use of a keyboard or mouse). The amount of time
a person performs an activity may also be a factor.
Some guidelines that may help you work more comfortably with your computer and possibly
reduce your risk of experiencing an MSD can be found in the "Healthy Computing Guide"
section of this "Getting Started" manual. You can also access the "Healthy Computing Guide" at
www.microsoft.com/hardware or (in the United States only) by calling 1 (800) 360 7561 to request
a CD at no charge.
If you have questions about how your own lifestyle, activities, or medical or physical condition may be
related to MSDs, see a qualified health professional.
