Installing other operating systems

Installing other operating systems

If you install your own operating system, follow the instructions that come with your operating system CDs or diskettes. Remember to install all device drivers after you install your operating system. Installation instructions are usually provided with the device drivers.

Updating your antivirus software

Your computer comes with antivirus software you can use to detect and eliminate viruses. Lenovo provides a full version of antivirus software on your hard disk with a free 90-day subscription. After 90 days, you must get a new virus definition.

For more information about updating your antivirus software, refer to the Access Help online help system . See “Access Help” on page 54 for instructions on how to open the online help system.

Shutting down the computer
