Understanding hard disk drive space
The hard disk drive on the Hewlett-Packard and
Compaq computers with the Microsoft®
Windows operating system preinstalled may
appear to be smaller than the size stated in the
product specifications, in the documentation, or
on the box. Hard disk drives are described and
advertised by manufacturers in terms of decimal
(base 10) capacity. Microsoft Windows and
other programs, such as FDISK, use the binary
(base 2) numbering system.
In decimal notation, one megabyte (MB) is
equal to 1,000,000 bytes, and one gigabyte
(GB) is equal to 1,000,000,000 bytes. In the
binary numbering system, one megabyte is
equal to 1,048,576 bytes, and one gigabyte is
equal to 1,073,741,824 bytes. Because of the
different measuring systems, you may see a
difference between the size reported by
Microsoft Windows and the size advertised. The
storage capacity of the hard disk drive is as
advertised.
Microsoft Windows reports smaller capacity in
the Windows Explorer tool and in the computer
window because it shows information about one
partition on the hard disk drive at a time. One of
the partitions contains the System Recovery
information.

Locate the HP TouchSmart PC in the room to minimize glare from the screen. You can also reduce glare by
tilting the screen.
The HP TouchSmart screen can be used as an input device; therefore, the computer should be placed so that
your shoulders and neck are comfortable.
The computer might need to be moved close to your body to keep your shoulders relaxed while you are touching
the screen. Keep your shoulders low and your upper arm close to your body when you touch the screen. The
more the screen is used for input, the more important this is.
You can position the computer in a variety of ways to provide a balance between relaxing your shoulders and
keeping your head balanced comfortably over your neck. If you feel discomfort in your shoulders, try moving the
computer closer to your body or lowering the height of the screen by lowering the work surface. If you feel
discomfort in your upper back muscles and neck, try increasing the height of the screen by increasing the work
surface height.
