beginning to use your software
The operation of your PC is controlled by two kinds of software:
•
The Microsoft Windows XP operating system, which displays the desktop on
the monitor and controls your PC’s hardware, peripherals, and software
applications.
•
Software programs, such as a word processing program, which perform
specific functions.
Information about using software and about the Microsoft Windows XP
operating system is in the printed manuals and online Help. For Microsoft
Windows, you can also press the Help button, labelled with a question mark
icon on your keyboard (select models only), to open the built-in Help and
Support Center. For help with specific software, refer to the on-screen Help
within the program.
Software programs included with the PC may vary by model and by
country/region.
