Configuring the Computer

System configuration is the process of specifying the devices and

programs that make up a computer system. When you add or

remove accessories, the computer must be reconfigured to

recognize these changes.

The information in this chapter is only applicable if you
installed an additional (second) drive. If you just
upgraded your existing hard drive and transferred your
data from an old drive to the new drive, you may skip
the procedures on drive partitioning unless you
encounter problems upon start up.

If you are installing a SATA drive in your computer for
the first time, you must refer to the white paper
“Implementation of Serial ATA on HP Business Desktops”
for operating system instructions. The white paper is
located at http://www.hp.com/support.
