3. Select a partition size.
This is the size of the partition to create as the C: drive and in which to install the OS.
By default, the value is set to the maximum-allowed size (the size of the logical drive.) The
minimum-allowed size varies and is determined by the selected OS.
• To change the size of the partition from the default, slide the bar above the field left or
right to reduce or increase size. This option is not available when installing Microsoft
Windows Essentials OSs, because custom partitioning is not supported in the Essentials
OSs.)
• To create a partition size based on the provided default, but reducing it by the amount
set aside for the swap space (pagefile), select Disallow swap space (not recommended).
Select this option only when the pagefile is located elsewhere.

To protect your privacy, do not use sensitive information for the computer name. This name
is visible in HP Insight RS and HP Insight Online, and can be viewed by HP support and your
authorized service provider, reseller/distributor, and installer.
If an administrator password is not entered at this time, you are prompted for a password
during the first login. (Not displayed for all OSs. For Microsoft Windows Small Business Server
2011 Essentials, the initial administrator password defaults to “admin.”)

The time zone is used by the OS to perform daylight saving time updates and other time-related
functions.
7. Enter organization and owner names (optional).
