Operating System and Software
This Notebook PC may offer (depending on territory) its customers
the choice of a pre-installed Microsoft Windows operating system.
The choices and languages will depend on the territory. The levels
of hardware and software support may vary depending on the
installed operating system. The stability and compatibility of other
operating systems cannot be guaranteed.
Support Software
This Notebook PC comes with a support disc that provides BIOS,
drivers and applications to enable hardware features, extend
functionality, help manage your Notebook PC, or add functionality
not provided by the native operating system. If updates or
replacement of the support disc is necessary, contact your dealer for
web sites to download individual software drivers and utilities.
The support disc contains all drivers, utilities and software for all
popular operating systems including those that have been pre-
installed. The support disc does not include the operating system
itself. The support disc is necessary even if your Notebook PC came
pre-configured in order to provide additional software not included
as part of the factory pre-install.
A recovery disc is optional and includes an image of the original
operating system installed on the hard drive at the factory. The
recovery disc provides a comprehensive recovery solution that
quickly restores the Notebook PC’s operating system to its original
working state provided that your hard disk drive is in good working
order. Contact your retailer if you require such a solution.
Some of the Notebook PC’s components and features may not
work until the device drivers and utilities are installed.
