NOTE: If your hard drive was shipped without an operating

system (image) installed, you must reinstall the operating system

using the system recovery discs. To install the operating system,

refer to the instructions included with your system recovery discs,

or for U.S. product support, go to

IMPORTANT:

Do not turn off the computer during the

initial setup process. Please allow the process to complete

to ensure that everything that is necessary to operate the

computer is installed properly. The system recovery process

takes approximately 3 hours. When system recovery is

complete, the computer reboots and the Windows Setup

screen is displayed.

After the setup has been completed, you must reinstall any

applications that were on the old hard drive and restore

any data that you backed up. If you need further assistance,

please call 1-800-474-6836 (1-800-HP Invent) if in the U.S.

If your hard drive was shipped with an operating system (image)

installed, system recovery disks are not required for setup.

completely set up the operating system.
