Creating Master Diskettes

It is very important that you create master diskettes for your preloaded software as soon as possible. HP recommends that you use new diskettes. If you need to restore the preloaded software on your PC, you can use these diskettes to do so.

For details on how to create these diskettes, refer to the documentation for your operating system.

Stopping Your PC

To stop the PC, make sure that you have exited all programs and the operating system (if necessary), and then press the power button on the control panel.

Refer to the operating system manual for details of how to exit the operating system.
