9 HP Web Site Support
HP engineers rigorously test and debug software developed by HP and third-party suppliers, and
develop operating system specific support software, to ensure performance, compatibility, and reliability
for HP computers.
When making the transition to new or revised operating systems, it is important to implement the support
software designed for that operating system. If you plan to run a version of Microsoft Windows that is
different from the version included with the computer, you must install corresponding device drivers and
utilities to ensure that all features are supported and functioning properly.
HP has made the task of locating, accessing, evaluating, and installing the latest support software easier.
You can download the software from
http://www.hp.com/support.
The Web site contains the latest device drivers, utilities, and flashable ROM images needed to run the
latest Microsoft Windows operating system on the HP computer.
