Installing HP and third-party software updates

HP recommends that you regularly update the software and drivers that were originally installed on
your computer. To download the latest versions, go to http://www.hp.com/support. At this location,
you can also register to receive automatic update notifications when they become available.
If you have installed third-party software after you purchased your computer, regularly update the
software. Software companies provide software updates to their products to correct security problems
and improve functionality of the software.
