ÄCAUTION: Do not add optional hardware or third-party devices to your computer until the operating system is successfully installed. Doing so may cause errors and may prevent the operating system from installing properly.
Once the automatic installation has begun, DO NOT TURN OFF THE COMPUTER UNTIL THE PROCESS IS COMPLETE. Turning off the computer during the installation process might damage the software that runs the computer or prevent its proper installation.
Be sure there is a 10.2-cm (4-inch) clearance at the back of the unit and above the monitor to permit the required airflow.
The first time the computer is turned on, the operating system is automatically installed. This takes approximately 10 minutes, depending on the operating system being installed. Carefully read and follow the instructions that appear on the screen to complete the installation.
If the computer shipped with more than one operating system language on the hard drive, the installation process could take up to 60 minutes.
If the computer was not shipped with a Microsoft operating system, some portions of this documentation do not apply. For complete operating system installation and configuring instructions, refer to the operating system documentation. Additional information is available in online help.
Microsoft security updates are available on the Microsoft Web site.
1.1Installing or Upgrading Device Drivers
To install optional hardware devices after the operating system installation is complete, the drivers for each of the devices must also be installed.
If prompted for the I386 directory, replace the path specification with C:\i386, or use the Browse button in the dialog box to locate the i386 folder. This action points the operating system to the appropriate drivers.
Obtain the latest support software, including support software for the operating system from www.hp.com/support. Select the appropriate country and language then, select Download
drivers and software, enter the model number of the computer, and press Enter.
You can also obtain the latest support software on CDs. The following Web site provides information on how to purchase a support software CD subscription: http://h18000.www1.hp.com/support/files/desktops/us/purchase.html.

Installing the Operating System
1.2Transferring Files and Settings
Use the Microsoft Windows XP Files and Settings Transfer Wizard to move files and settings from an old computer to a new one. Click Start > All Programs > Accessories > System Tools > Files and Settings Transfer Wizard. Follow the wizard to transfer the files and settings to the new computer.
1.3Creating a Disc Recovery Set
ÄCAUTION: HP no longer ships the Restore Plus! CD with PCs. Instead, HP Backup and Recovery Manager is pre-loaded on each system. HP recommends the creation of a recovery CD as soon as the computer has been set up. Creating the Restore Plus! CD set is important in the event that you ever need to restore the system hard drive to its factory installed state.
HP Backup and Recovery Manager can create the Restore Plus CD set, This set includes the Restore Plus CD, the Operating System CD, and any Supplemental Software CDs.
ÄCAUTION: The Restore Plus CD set will not include any system settings or user data created after the initial system setup.
T o create the Restore Plus CD set:
1.Click Start > HP Backup and Recovery > HP Backup and Recovery Manager to open the Backup and Recovery Wizard, then click Next.
2.Select Create factory software recovery CDs or DVDs to recover the system.
3.Follow the instructions in the wizard.
The HP Backup and Recovery Manager can be used to back up data and system files to the hard drive, to network drives, or to removable media, such as CDs, DVDs, or flash media. If data or system files are lost, deleted, or corrupted, Backup and Recovery Manager allows you to retrieve data or restore the last good system image.
ÄCAUTION: HP recommends that a backup schedule be created immediately to ensure continued system and data protection. Automatic backups can be scheduled using the HP Backup and Recovery Wizard. Recovery Points, Entire Drive Backups, and File Backups can be automatically backed up without user intervention. HP recommends scheduling Recovery Points Backups to provide the most comprehensive coverage.
If HP Backup and Recovery Manager is preinstalled, the Restore Plus CD set and the initial recovery point may be saved to disc as often as necessary, but only a single copy of the Microsoft Windows CD can be created, due to licensing constraints.
You can access a user manual at Start > HP Backup and Recovery > HP Backup and Recovery Manager Manual.
If Create factory software recovery CDs or DVDs to recover the system is unavailable on the system, the HP Restore Plus CD set can be obtained through product support on http://welcome/country/us/en/contact_us.html.

Setup Utilities and Diagnostics Features
Setup Utilities (F10) and diagnostic features provide information needed about the computer system when contacting Customer Support. These tools can also be used to:
■Change factory default settings and to set or change the system configuration, which may be necessary when you add or remove hardware.
■Determine if all of the devices installed on the computer are recognized by the system and functioning properly.
■Determine information about the operating environment of the computer.
■Solve system configuration errors detected but not automatically fixed during the Power-On Self-Test (POST).
■Establish and manage passwords and other security features.
■Establish and manage energy-saving timeouts.
All features identified in this chapter may not be available on all HP products.
2.1Power-On Self-Test (POST)
POST is a series of diagnostic tests that runs automatically when the system is turned on. POST checks the following items to ensure that the computer system is functioning properly:
■Keyboard
■Memory modules
■All mass storage devices
■Processors
■Controllers
If the Power-On Password is set, a key icon appears on the screen while POST is running. You will need to enter the password before continuing. Refer to Section 3.1, “Initial Configuration and Deployment” for information on setting, deleting, or bypassing the password.
If POST finds an error in the system, an audible and/or visual message occurs. For POST error messages and their solutions refer to Appendix C, “POST Error Messages.”

Translation Mode (ATA disks only) |
|
|
Lets you select the translation mode to be used for the device. This |
|
|
enables the BIOS to access disks partitioned and formatted on other |
|
|
systems and may be necessary for users of older versions of UNIX |
|
|
(e.g., SCO UNIX version 3.2). Options are Automatic, Bit-Shift, |
|
|
LBA Assisted, User, and None |
|
|
Ä CAUTION: Ordinarily, the translation mode selected |
|
|
automatically by the BIOS should not be changed. If the selected |
|
|
translation mode is not compatible with the translation mode that |
|
|
was active when the disk was partitioned and formatted, the data |
|
|
on the disk will be inaccessible. |
|
|
Translation Parameters (ATA disks only) |
|
|
This feature appears only when User translation mode is selected. |
|
|
Allows you to specify the parameters (logical cylinders, heads, and |
|
|
sectors per track) used by the BIOS to translate disk I/O requests |
|
|
(from the operating system or an application) into terms the hard |
|
|
drive can accept. Logical cylinders may not exceed 1024. The |
|
|
number of heads may not exceed 256. The number of sectors per |
|
|
track may not exceed 63. These fields are only visible and |
|
|
changeable when the drive translation mode is set to User. |
|
|
Default Values IDE/SATA |
|
|
Allows you to specify the default values for the Multisector Transfers, |
|
|
Transfer Mode, and Translation Mode for ATA devices. |
|

Legacy Diskette Write |
|
|
Enables/disables ability to write data to legacy diskettes. |
|
|
After saving changes to Removable Media Write, the computer |
|
|
will restart. Turn the computer off, then on, manually. |
|
|
BIOS DMA Data Transfers |
|
|
Allows you to control how BIOS device I/O requests are serviced. |
|
|
When “Enable” is selected, the BIOS will service ATA device read |
|
|
and write requests with DMA data transfers. When “Disable” is |
|
|
selected, the BIOS will service ATA device read and write requests |
|
|
with PIO data transfers. |

|
|
|
|
accessed by the operating system. There are up to two supported |
|
|
|
|
options: IDE and AHCI. |
|
|
|
|
IDE is the default option. Use this option for “normal” (non-AHCI) |
|
|

user a visual indication of the sleep state the system is in. Each |
|
|
sleep state has a unique blink pattern: |
|
|
•S0 = Solid green LED |
|
|
•S3 = 3 blinks at 1 Hz (50% duty cycle) followed by a pause |
|
|
of 2 seconds (green LED), i.e., repeated cycles of 3 blinks and |
