Tips on Avoiding Potential Problems

Take Advantage of Disk Partitions

Disk partitions let you split your hard disk into separate areas. Each of these areas
appears as a separate drive — for example, C, D, etc. If your HP Brio PC already has
disk partitions, you might consider using one partition (other than the C drive, as
this is where your system files are stored) for your important data. This has several
advantages:
• You can easily find files
• You can make backups more easily
• If you ever have a problem with your system files (for instance, if a virus has
corrupted them), your Recovery CD-ROM will help you recover your PC to its
original state. It will erase the C drive and restore it, but will leave your important
data on the D drive intact.

Protect Your HP Brio PC from Power Shortages

If you plan to use your PC in a permanent way — to receive faxes, for example —
you should really consider adding an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) unit to
your HP Brio PC, so that it is protected against power shortages. Indeed after a
power shortage, your HP Brio PC may not be able to retrieve its original
configuration (network connections, fax reception, etc).
Contact your HP authorized reseller for information on suitable UPS units.
