Setup
Registering with HP
As part of the initial setup in some
countries/regions, you will be prompted to
register the computer with HP. It’s important to
register so that you can be notified of changes
and updates to the HP Pavilion. This information
also assists HP Customer Care if you ever need
to call for support.
We recommend that you register the HP Pavilion
at this time. You can register any of these ways:
■
When you first start up your computer, follow
the onscreen instructions and register as soon
as you have a modem connection.
■
Double-click the registration icon on your
desktop, and follow the onscreen instructions.
■
Go to the HP Web site, and register online at
http://register.hp.com
Getting Help
You can get help over the telephone from HP. See
the Support Guide included with the computer
documentation for the terms of your HP Pavilion
warranty coverage, and for support telephone
numbers.
Protecting the PC
HP provides a virus-scanning software program
to help protect your PC (select models only). The
program runs automatically when you start the
computer.
The virus-scanning program manufacturer
provides free virus scan updates through your
Internet connection for an initial period after
your HP Pavilion home PC purchase. You can
purchase a subscription service for updates
after your initial free period expires.
