Turning On Your System

for the First Time

If your notebook is a single-language model, the software setup will take
about 10 minutes. If it is a multilanguage model, the software setup may
take as long as 30 minutes, depending on the language you select. Use
the arrow keys to make the language selection, then press
located in the top row of the keyboard.

During software setup, the system may seem to pause on certain screens
for up to 2 minutes. It will also restart several times during the setup
process.

During these pauses, the notebook is setting up your hardware,

software, and hard drive file systems. This is normal for the first
time that you turn on your notebook.

After the registration is complete, the system will restart, and the file
conversion screen will appear. When the file conversion is complete and
the desktop is displayed, the notebook is ready to use.
