Initial Configuration and Deployment
HP computers come with a preinstalled system software image. After a brief software
"unbundling" process, the computer is ready to be used.
A customized software image may be deployed by:
Installing additional software applications after unbundling the preinstalled software image.
Using software deployment tools, such as Altiris Deployment Solutions, to replace the
preinstalled software with a customized software image.
Using a disk cloning process to copy the contents from one hard drive to another.
The best deployment method depends on your information technology environment and
processes. The PC Deployment section of the Solutions and Services Web site
(http://h18000.www1.hp.com/solutions/pcsolutions)
best deployment method.
The Restore Plus! CD, ROM-based setup, and ACPI hardware provide further assistance with
recovery of system software, configuration management and troubleshooting, and power
management.
