Getting HP Updates for the PC

Informing You of Changes

HP provides an Internet-based service that includes informing you when updates are available for your PC.

The updates from HP messages are also available to you through the HP Web site under the driver update and support information for your model PC. To go to the Web site, see “Visiting the Hewlett-Packard Web Site” on page 41.

Using HP Center for Updates from HP Messages

HP Center is a service provided by HP to bring you information, documents, digital media, time-based notifications, and special offers.

Note: HP Center is not available in all models.

HP Center also delivers Updates from

HP Messages. These messages inform you of important information about your PC:

3Product notices

3System updates

3Tips

The update message downloads when your PC is idle, like other HP Center information, and may display an alert or a notice that flashes on your desktop. View messages as they arrive or read them later. A message always asks for your permission before installing a system update on the PC.
