2 Setting up your computer

WARNING! To reduce the risk of electrical shock or damage to your

equipment:

• Place the computer in a location away from water, dust, moisture, and soot.
These can increase the inside temperature, or can cause fire or electrocution.

• Do not disable the power cord grounding plug. The grounding plug is an
important safety feature.

• Plug the power cord in a grounded (earthed) outlet that is easily accessible at all
times.

• Disconnect power from the equipment by unplugging the power cord from the
electrical outlet. To prevent direct exposure to laser beam, do not try to open the
enclosure of the CD or DVD drives.

• The power supply is preset for the country/region in which you purchased your
computer. If you move, check the voltage requirements for your new location
before plugging the computer into an AC power outlet.

The computer may be heavy; be sure to use ergonomically correct lifting
procedures when moving the computer.

To reduce the risk of serious injury read the Safety & Comfort Guide. The guide is
located on the web at

1. Place the computer so that all ventilation openings are unobstructed and
cabling is not in a walkway or where it can be stepped on or damaged by
placing furniture on it.

2. Connect all power cords from the monitor, computer, and accessories to a
power surge protection device that is specifically labeled as having surge
protection, an uninterruptible power supply (UPS), or a similar device. If the
computer has a television tuner, or a modem or telephone connection, protect
the computer by using surge protection with these signal inputs as well.
Connect the television cable or the telephone line cord to the surge protection
device, and then connect the device to the computer.

3. Read the Safety and Regulatory Information document that is found on your
product CD.

4. Read the Safety & Comfort Guide for proper workstation setup, posture,
health and work habits, and electrical and mechanical safety information.
This guide is found on your product CD.

NOTE: Use only licensed original software. Installing copied software could
result in an unstable installation, infect the computer with a virus, or be illegal.

Security solutions can deter theft, mishandling, and software attacks, but cannot
prevent them.

Connecting to the Internet

Steps to connect to the Internet:

1. Connect the hardware as shown on the setup view.

2. Get Internet service.

Sign up with an Internet Service Provider (ISP). If you already have an

●

account with an ISP, skip this step and follow the instructions provided
by the ISP.

3. Using your Internet connection through your ISP, open a web browser and
browse the Internet.

NOTE: If you have issues connecting to the Internet, see Internet access
on page 11.

3 Setting up additional features

Using an HDMI monitor (select models only)

If your computer has a graphics card with an HDMI (High Definition Multimedia
Interface) connector, Hewlett-Packard recommends using a DVI or VGA connector
for a monitor, and using HDMI to connect a TV.

If you use HDMI to connect your monitor, you may need to adjust some settings to
hear sound. Because of this, HP recommends that you connect analog speakers to
the computer if you want to hear sound during the initial setup of the computer.

For optimum viewing, you may need to adjust the resolution setting for the monitor.
NOTE: If you ever need to recover the computer operating system you may need

to activate sound and adjust resolution for the HDMI connector.

IMPORTANT: Your HDMI monitor must be connected to the graphics card
before you activate sound and adjust resolution.

Using the HDMI port controls (select models only)

The right side of your computer may contain an HDMI port and volume control
buttons. Unless a device is plugged into the HDMI port, the volume controls have
no functionality. The HDMI controls are only intended to control the settings of the
device plugged into that port, and do not control any other media devices on the
system.

To use the HDMI port controls, plug a device into the HDMI port. Press the menu
button (the top button displayed). A new on-screen menu displays. Using the +/­buttons, select brightness, volume, contrast, or color balance.

When a device is plugged into the HDMI port, the volume on the computer is
muted. Pressing the +/- buttons on the side panel does not change the volume of
the computer.

4 Maintaining your computer

Cleaning procedures

Keeping your computer system free of dust, dirt, and heat will prolong its life.

Dust, pet hair, and other particles can build up, creating a blanket effect; as a result, components can

●

overheat or, in the case of the keyboard and mouse, not work smoothly and effectively.

Check your system once a month for visible signs of dust and debris, and clean it about once every three

●

months.

Visit

●

www.hp.com/support for additional cleaning instructions.

Cleaning the computer
vents

Air vents keep the computer cool. Keep these vents clean by using a small, battery­powered vacuum cleaner. (A battery-powered vacuum cleaner eliminates the risk of
electric shock.)

1. Vacuum the vents on the computer case.

2. Remove any debris that has accumulated in and around the computer

connectors (for example, the Ethernet and USB connectors).

Cleaning the keyboard and
mouse

When cleaning the keyboard keys, use a low setting on a battery-powered vacuum
cleaner, to avoid removing key caps and springs.

1. Vacuum between the keys of the keyboard and along the grooves.

2. Use a clean, dry cloth and isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol to clean buildup on the

keyboard keys and along its edges.

3. Wipe the body of the mouse and the mouse cord by using cleaning wipes.

If you have a roller-ball mouse, clean the ball and rollers inside:

1. Turn the mouse upside down, and rotate the ball-cover ring counterclockwise
to remove the ring and release the roller ball.

2. Rinse the roller ball with soap and warm water.

3. Clean the rollers inside the mouse with a cotton swab dampened with

isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol.

4. After the roller ball and rollers are completely dry, replace the ball and ball­cover ring.

Cleaning the touch screen
(AiO models only)

Follow these steps to clean the touch screen:

1. Turn off the computer. Tap the Start button, and then tap Shut Down.

2. Disconnect the power cord from the wall.

3. Spray a small amount of mild glass cleaner on a soft cloth to clean the touch

screen.

4. Wipe the surface and left and right side of the touch screen to remove any
dirt, fingerprints, or other debris that could hinder the touch recognition of the
screen.

CAUTION:

cleaner into the cloth, and then wipe the sides and surface of the touch screen.

Do not use an abrasive cleaner or cloth when cleaning the sides or the surface of
the screen, because this could cause damage to the touch screen.

Do not spray or place the cleaner directly on the screen; spray the

Speakers and sound

Symptom Possible solution

Volume is very low
or unsatisfactory.

If you use an High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) connector on the graphics card
(select models only) to connect your monitor to the computer, you should also connect
analog speakers to the computer Audio Line Out connector if you want to hear sound
during the initial setup of the computer. Refer to the Setup Poster to connect analog
speakers.

If you are using built-in monitor speakers, use the monitor front-panel Volume button to
adjust volume. Use the front-panel buttons to enter the on-screen display (OSD) and ensure
that audio is enabled and that the volume is set appropriately.

Ensure that you connected powered (active) speakers and that they are turned on.

Turn off your computer, and then unplug and reconnect the speakers. Ensure that the
speakers are connected to an audio connector, not a Line In or headphone connector.

To resume from Sleep mode, press the Sleep button (select models only), or press Esc.

Unplug headphones if they are connected to your computer (or speaker system).

Ensure that you connected the speakers to the Audio Out (lime green) connector on the
back of the computer. (Additional audio connectors are used for multiple-channel
speakers.) Detached non-powered speakers (speakers without a separate power source,
such as batteries or a power cord) do not produce satisfactory sound. Replace the non­powered speakers with powered speakers.

Internet access

Symptom Possible solution

Internet programs do
not start
automatically.

Log in to your ISP, and start the desired program.

Speakers and sound

11

Symptom Possible solution

I cannot connect to
the Internet.

Verify that you are using the proper cables for your Internet connection type. Your
computer might have a dial-up modem and an Ethernet network adapter (also called a
network interface card, or NIC). A modem uses a standard telephone cable, whereas the
network adapter uses a network cable, to connect to a local area network (LAN). Do not
connect a telephone cable to the network adapter, and do not plug a network cable into a
telephone service line; doing so might damage the network adapter.

If your system has an external antenna, try to move the antenna to a better position. If the
antenna is internal, try to move the computer.

Try to connect again later, or contact your Internet service provider (ISP) for assistance.

Software troubleshooting

To repair
software
problems, try
these methods:

Software
program and
hardware driver
reinstallation

Turn the computer off completely and then turn it on again. This is the easiest (and

●

sometimes the best) way.

Reinstall the software program or hardware driver (see Software program and hardware

●

driver reinstallation, later in this table). — Restores the software (if it came with the
product) or hardware driver to factory defaults.

System Recovery (see Troubleshooting and Maintenance Guide on your product CD.

●

Erase and reformat the hard disk drive, and then reinstall the operating system, programs,
and drivers. This erases all data files you have created.

If any of your factory-installed software programs or hardware drivers are damaged, you can
reinstall it by using the Recovery Manager program (select models only).

NOTE:

directly from the CDs or DVDs.

Reinstall any programs, that came on CDs or DVDs included in the computer box,

Before you uninstall a program, be sure you have a way to reinstall it. Check to be sure that it
is still available from where you initially installed it (for example, discs or the Internet). Or
check to be sure that the program is in the list of programs you can reinstall from the Recovery
Manager.
