What to do first

Note HP strongly recommends you use e-DiagTools. It provides the most effective way of solving
most hardware problems. It can also help you distinguish between a hardware and a software
problem.
Don't panic! Most things that go wrong with computers can be fixed
relatively easily — provided you do not rush into them. Use the following
checklist to see where you can find help.
Is there really a problem with my
e-pc or do I just not know how to
do something?
I still haven't solved my problem
and need to do some
troubleshooting.
Does it seem to be a basic
problem with Windows, or with
one of your e-pc's components?
