The Summary Screen gives you a summary of the current
configuration of your workstation (for example: BIOS version, CPU
speed, memory module size, and installed mass storage devices).
You should check the configuration of your workstation when you
first use it and each time after you install, remove, or upgrade
accessories. To check the configuration:
1. Turn on the display and then the workstation. If the workstation
is already turned on, save your data and exit all programs,
then restart the workstation. Consult your operating system
documentation for any special instructions concerning turning
off and restarting your workstation.
2. When the start-up logo appears on your display, press Esc. This
takes you to the Summary Screen. (To go immediately into the
Setup program, and bypass the Summary Screen, press F2 instead
of Esc.) The Summary Screen is displayed for only a short time.
Press the Pause/Break key on the keyboard to retain the
Summary Screen until another key is pressed.
The Linux-based hp workstations xw5000 and xw8000 are available
with different optical drives. Each requires different software or
drivers to operate properly. Only the CD-ROM comes with
pre-installed drivers. To locate the drivers for other types of drives
(CD-RW, DVD-ROM, DVD+RW), visit
latest Linux software applications available.
NOTE: No drivers are required for read-only access to these drives.
NOTE: You cannot install a CD-RW and a DVD+RW in the same
system.
