(The period and backslash need to be there.)

c. Press Enter
d. You will now be signed into the laptop. This may take a few minutes but wait for the applications to load. The computer is thinking.
If you receive a message, "the username or password is incorrect. Try again" make sure the Caps Lock and Num Lock keys on the keyboard are off. Try using the number keys that are located directly above the letter keys.
If you receive a message, "We can't sign you in with this credential because your domain isn't available." for the username field, verify that you are typing in the period and backlash key correctly (.\) before typing pwcsstudent. The backslash key (\) is located above the Enter key.
