2 Installing and Customizing the

Software

A keyboard is required to unbundle the software image.

NOTE: If the computer was shipped with Windows Vista loaded, you will be prompted to register the

computer with HP Total Care before installing the operating system. You will see a brief movie

followed by an online registration form. Fill out the form, click the Begin button, and follow the

instructions on the screen.

CAUTION: Do not add optional hardware or third-party devices to the computer until the operating

system is successfully installed. Doing so may cause errors and prevent the operating system from

installing properly.

NOTE: Operate the computer on a sturdy, level surface. The front should be 100% open. Leave a

10-mm (.39-inch) clearance on the sides and top of the computer and at least a 50-mm (1.97-inch)

clearance in the rear. The rear vents should be 100% open.

Installing the Operating System

The first time you turn on the computer, the operating system is installed automatically. This process

takes about 5 to 10 minutes, depending on which operating system is being installed. Carefully read

and follow the instructions on the screen to complete the installation.

CAUTION: Once the automatic installation has begun, DO NOT TURN OFF THE COMPUTER

UNTIL THE PROCESS IS COMPLETE. Turning off the computer during the installation process may

damage the software that runs the computer or prevent its proper installation.

NOTE: If the computer shipped with more than one operating system language on the hard drive,

the installation process could take up to 60 minutes.

If your computer was not shipped with a Microsoft operating system, some portions of this

documentation do not apply. Additional information is available in online help after you install the

operating system.
