Connecting the Network Cable
A network cable has an 8-pin RJ-45 network connector at each
end and may contain noise suppression circuitry, which prevents
interference with TV and radio reception. To connect the cable:
1. Identify the RJ-45 network jack 1 on the notebook.
2. Orient the end of a network cable with noise suppression
circuitry 2 toward the notebook.
3. Plug the network cable into the notebook RJ-45
network jack 3.
4. Plug the other end of the cable into the network
RJ-45 jack 4.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock, disconnect the
network cable before accessing an internal compartment of the
notebook. Internal compartments include the memory compartment
and the battery and hard drive bays.

Turning a Network Connection Off and On
To conserve power, turn off a network connection you are not
using.
■
To turn off a network connection, log off the network, then
disconnect the network cable.
■
To turn on a network connection, connect the network cable,
then log on to the network.
Accessing the Network at Startup
To connect the notebook to a PXE (Preboot eXecution
Environment) server during startup, you must enable the internal
NIC for startup, then respond to the Network Service Boot
prompt each time you want to connect to the server.
■
To enable the NIC for startup and set the notebook to display
the Network Service Boot prompt each time the notebook is
started or restarted, set your preferences in the Setup utility.
The Setup utility is not a Windows utility and does not
support the TouchPad. For more information about using the
Setup utility, refer to the “Using the Setup Utility” section in
Chapter 9 of this guide.
■
To respond to the Network Service Boot prompt, press F12
while the prompt F12 = Boot from LAN appears very briefly
in the lower left corner of the screen before Windows loads.
Infrared
The notebook is IrDA-compliant and can communicate with
another infrared-equipped device that is also IrDA-compliant.
The IrDA connection speed standard is 4 megabits per second
(Mbps).
The infrared port supports low-speed connections up to
115 kilobits per second (Kbps) as well as high-speed connections
up to 4 Mbps.

Communications
Infrared signals are sent through an invisible beam of infrared
light and must have an unobstructed line of sight. Infrared
performance may vary with the performance of infrared
peripherals, the distance and angle between infrared devices, and
the applications being used.
Linking to an infrared device
Setting Up an Infrared Transmission
For information about using infrared software and enabling or
disabling infrared ports, refer to the operating system Help files
and to the documentation included with the external infrared
device.
To set up 2 infrared devices, such as the notebook and an optional
printer, for optimal transmission:
■
Position the devices so that their infrared ports face each
other at a distance of no more than 3.3 feet (1 meter).
■
Position the ports so that they face each other directly. The
maximum capture angle is 30 degrees, so the ports must be
aligned no more than 15 degrees off center vertically or
horizontally.

■
Shield the ports from direct sunlight, flashing incandescent
light, and fluorescent light.
■
Be sure that signals from a remote control or other wireless
device (such as a cell phone, a headset, or an audio device)
do not aim at either port.
■
During the transmission, do not move either device and
do not allow objects or movement to disrupt the beam.
Avoiding Standby While Using Infrared
Standby is not compatible with infrared transmission. If the
notebook is in Standby, an infrared transmission cannot be
initiated.
If Standby initiates during an infrared transmission, the
transmission stops. To resume from Standby, briefly press
the power button. The transmission resumes when the notebook
resumes from Standby.

Connecting a USB Device
USB (universal serial bus) is a hardware interface that can be
used to connect external devices such as a USB keyboard, mouse,
drive, printer, scanner, or hub to the notebook.
A hub is a connecting device that can be either powered or
unpowered. USB hubs can be connected to a USB connector on
the notebook or to other USB devices. Hubs support varying
numbers of USB devices and are used to increase the number of
USB devices in the system.
■
Powered hubs must be connected to external power.
■
Unpowered hubs must be connected either to a USB
connector on the notebook or to a port on a powered hub.
The USB connectors on the notebook support USB 2.0- and
1.1-compliant devices.

Software Updates, Restorations and Utilities
Backing Up and Restoring Data
The System Restore utility enables you to safeguard your system
files and functional configurations by using System Restore
points.
System Restore points are restorable, benchmark “snapshots” of
your system. The notebook may set System Restore points
whenever you change personal settings or add software or
hardware. Setting System Restore points manually provides
additional protection for your system files and settings. HP
recommends that you set System Restore points:
■
Before you add or extensively modify software or hardware.
■
Periodically, whenever the system is performing optimally.
Setting a System Restore Point
To set a System Restore point manually:
1. Select Start > Help & Support > Tools. (Notebook and
diagnostic information is displayed.)
2. Select System Restore, then follow the on-screen instructions
for setting a Restore Point.
Restoring to a System Restore Point
To restore the notebook to a System Restore point:
1. Select Start > Help & Support > Tools. (Notebook and
diagnostic information is displayed.)
2. Select System Restore, then follow the on-screen instructions
for restoring the notebook to a Restore Point.

Installing a Retail Version of an
Operating System
The Windows operating system provided on the notebook or
on a restoration CD is enhanced by HP. The HP enhancements
add power and security features and provide supplementary
support for external devices such as drives and PC Cards.
Ä
CAUTION: Replacing an operating system enhanced by HP with a
retail version of an operating system will result in the loss of all HP
enhancements. In some cases, the loss of these enhancements may result
in an unresponsive system or the loss of complete USB support.
Using the Setup Utility
The Setup utility is a preinstalled, ROM-based information and
customization utility that can be used even when your operating
system is not working or will not load.
The utility reports information about the notebook and provides
settings for startup, password, port, Setup utility appearance, and
other preferences.
Opening the Setup Utility
To access most settings:
1. Start up or restart the notebook.
2. Before Windows opens and while the F10 = ROM Based
Setup prompt is displayed in the lower left corner of the
