Setup procedures

CAUTION: To reduce security risk, it is highly recommended that your IT administrator immediately initialize the embedded security chip. Failure to initialize the embedded security chip could result in an unauthorized user, a computer worm, or a virus taking ownership of the computer and gaining control over the owner tasks, such as handling the emergency recovery archive and configuring user access settings.

Follow the steps in the following sections to enable and initialize the embedded security chip.
