Installing Software and Hardware Devices

After you turn on the PC the first time, you can install any software programs that came on CDs or DVDs included in the PC box (select models only).

You may wish to install additional software programs or hardware devices on your PC. Before installation, make a restore point using the Microsoft System Restore program, and then restart the PC after installation. By using System Restore, you insure you have a point to return to before an issue occurred. For information about System Restore, refer to the Microsoft Web site at:

Choose software that is compatible with your PC — check the operating system, memory, and other requirements listed for the new software for compatibility with your PC.

NOTE: Only use original licensed software. Installing copied software may be illegal or may infect your PC with a virus.

Install the new software according to the directions provided by the software manufacturer. Check the manufacturer’s documentation or customer service information for help if you need it.

For antivirus software, uninstall the existing software program before reinstalling it or installing a new antivirus program.
