CAUTION: Replacing an operating system that is enhanced by HP with
a retail version will result in the loss of all HP enhancements. In some
cases, the loss of these enhancements might result in an unresponsive
system or the loss of complete USB support.
A Windows operating system provided on the notebook or on
a CD is optimized by HP to improve overall system performance.
HP recommends that you do not install a retail version in place of
this operating system.
