Getting Started with Windows XP
Your Joybook comes installed with Windows XP, Microsoft's latest operating system for consumer PCs. The first time you start up your Joy­book, Windows XP will ask you a few questions. Answer the questions to ensure that your full rights are protected. If you are asked to select the type of keyboard and you are not sure, please check the specification label on the packing carton to determine the correct keyboard type.
After you are done answering the questions, Joybook will restart and then you will enter Windows XP for the first time. Click Start and select Help and Support in the menu that appears. The Help and Support Center will appear and you can find more information on how to use
Windows XP here.
The operating system that comes with your Joybook may vary according to the Joybook model you purchased.
