What to do next

Here are a few things you may want to try at this point:
• If you're not familiar with the version of Windows installed on your computer, click
Start, Help (Windows 98 or 2000) or Start, Tour Windows XP, or check the Windows
manual to discover what's new.
• If your computer includes a DVD drive or CD-RW drive, you also received special
software for the drive—find the software CD in the box. Click Start, Programs
(Windows 98 or 2000) or Start, All Programs, Multimedia (Windows XP)—if the
software isn't listed, install it by inserting the CD in the drive. Follow the instructions
displayed—run Setup on the CD if it doesn't run automatically.
See the online Reference Guide to learn more about using and maintaining your
computer.
