1 Getting started in Windows 7
Windows 7 does not support the embedded TPM 2.0. You can either download a hotx from Microsoft to add
support or downgrade to TPM 1.2.
Activating and customizing the software
If your computer was not shipped with a Windows® operating system, some portions of this documentation
do not apply. Additional information is available in online help after you activate the operating system.
CAUTION: Do not add optional hardware or third-party devices to the computer until the operating system
is successfully activated. Doing so may cause errors and prevent the operating system from installing
properly.
NOTE: Be sure that there is a 10.2 cm (4-inch) clearance at the back of the unit and above the monitor to
permit the required airow.
Activating the Windows operating system
The rst time you turn on the computer, the operating system is set up and activated automatically. This
process takes about 5 to 10 minutes. Carefully read and follow the instructions on the screen to complete the
activation.
We recommend that you register your computer with HP during operating system setup so you can receive
important software updates and sign up for special oers.
CAUTION: After the activation process has begun, DO NOT TURN OFF THE COMPUTER UNTIL THE PROCESS IS
COMPLETE. Turning o the computer during the activation process may damage the software that runs the
computer or prevent its proper installation.
NOTE: If the computer was shipped with more than one operating system language on the hard drive, the
activation process could take up to 60 minutes.
Downloading Windows 7 updates
Microsoft may release updates to the operating system. To help keep the computer running optimally, HP
recommends checking for the latest updates during the initial installation and periodically throughout the life
of the computer.
1. To set up your Internet connection, click Start > Internet Explorer and follow the instructions on the
screen.
2. After an Internet connection has been established, click Start > All Programs > Windows Update.
3. Run Windows Update monthly thereafter.
Installing or upgrading device drivers
When installing optional hardware devices after the operating system installation is complete, you must also
install the drivers for each of the devices.
