Hint
If your notebook does not turn on when operating on battery power, the battery may
be out of power. Plug in the AC adapter, then press the power button again. Leave
the AC adapter plugged in for several hours to fully charge the battery. Charge
times will vary.
Step 5: Set up Windows
Your notebook has the Microsoft Windows operating system preinstalled on its hard
drive. The first time you turn on your notebook, the Windows Setup program runs
automatically so you can customize your setup.
1. Follow the Setup program instructions on the screen. If the program prompts you
to enter the Product ID code, locate the code on the bottom of the notebook.
2. Check the modem country or region settings. Select Start > Control Panel >
Printers and Other Hardware > Phone and Modem Options, then choose your
country/region.
