HP EliteBook 2540p Notebook PC - Manual (Page 145)

To download SoftPaqs:
1. Select Start > All Programs > HP > HP SoftPaq Download Manager.
2. When the SoftPaq Download Manager opens for the first time, a window is displayed asking if you
want to show only software for the computer you are using or to show the software for all supported
models. Select Show software for all supported models. If you have used HP SoftPaq Download
Manager previously, go to Step 3.
a. Select your operating system and language filters in the Configuration Options window. The
filters limit the number of options that are listed in the Product Catalog pane. For example, if
only Windows Vista® Business is selected in the operating system filter, the only operating
system that is displayed in the Product Catalog is Windows Vista Business.
b. To add other operating systems, change the filter settings in the Configuration Options
window. Refer to the HP SoftPaq Download Manager software Help for more information.
3. In the left pane, click the (+) sign to expand the model list, and then select the model or models of
the products you want to update.
4. Click Find Available SoftPaqs to download a list of available SoftPaqs for the selected computer.
5. Select from the list of available SoftPaqs, and then click Download Only if you have many SoftPaqs
to download, because the SoftPaq selection and Internet connection speed determine how long
the download process will take.
If you want to download only one or two SoftPaqs and have a high-speed Internet connection, click
Download & Unpack.
6. Right-click Install SoftPaq in the SoftPaq Download Manager software to install the selected
SoftPaqs on the computer.
