Precautions for Operating System Support
If a problem occurs because of the reinstallation of other
operating systems(OS) or a previous version of a OS pre-installed
on this computer, or a software that does not support the OS, the
company will not provide technical support, a replacement or
refund, and if our service engineer visits you due to this problem,
a service charge will be applied.

notice due to improving the performance of the product.

take care to avoid losing any important data and backup your data
to prevent any such data loss.
Performance Restrictions
1 Online games and some games(3D,2D) may not be supported
and Full HD video and some high bit rate HD video playback
may be slow and stutter on this computer.
2 There is one memory slot provided on this computer. It
supports 2GB memory max. To upgrade to 2GB memory,

Before You Start
About the Product Capacity Representation
Standard
About HDD Capacity Representation
The capacity of the storage device (HDD, SSD) of the manufacturer
is calculated assuming that 1KB=1,000 Bytes.
However, the operating system (Windows) calculates the storage
device capacity assuming that 1KB=1,024 Bytes, and therefore the
capacity representation of the HDD in Windows is smaller than the
actual capacity due to the difference in capacity calculation.
(E.g. For a 80GB HDD, Windows represents the capacity as 74.5GB,
80x1,000x1,000x1,000 byte/(1,024x1,024x1,024)byte = 74.505GB)
In addition, the capacity representation in Windows may be even
smaller because some programs such as Recovery Solution may
reside in a hidden area of the HDD.
Chapter 1
Getting Started
About Memory Capacity Representation
The memory capacity reported in Windows is less than the actual
capacity of memory.
This is because BIOS or a video adapter uses a portion of memory
or claims it for further use.
(E.g. For 1GB(=1,024MB) memory installed, Windows may report
the capacity as 1,022MB or less)
For more information, refer to the Samsung Recovery Solution
section.

Take care not to damage the data on a hard disk drive.
t A hard disk drive is so sensitive to external impact that an
external impact may cause loss of data on the surface of the
disk.
t Take extra care, because moving the computer or an impact
on the computer when it is turned on may damage the data of

t The data may be lost when the computer is turned off or reset
by a power failure while the hard disk drive is operating.
t The data may be lost and irrecoverable due to a computer virus
infection.
t The data may be lost if the power is turned off while running a
program.
t Moving or causing an impact to the computer while the hard
disk drive is operating, may cause files to be corrupted or bad

during computer use developed through human engineering.
Please read and follow them carefully when using the computer.
Do not use the computer on your lap. If the computer
temperature increases, there is a danger of burning yourself.
Work while keeping your waist straight.
Otherwise, the probability of (RSI: Repetitive Strain Injury) from
repeated operations may increase and serious physical harm may
be caused.
Use a chair with a comfortable back.
Keep the center of your leg weight not on the chair but on
your feet when you are sitting on a chair.
t The instructions in this manual have been prepared so that
they can be applied within the coverage of general users.
To use the computer while talking over the telephone, use a
headset. Using the computer with the phone on your shoulder
is bad for posture.
Keep frequently used items within a comfortable work range
(where you can reach them with your hands).
t If the user is not included in the coverage, the
recommendation is to be applied according to the user’s
needs.
Proper Posture
Adjust the heights of desks and chairs appropriate to your
height.
The heights are to be adjusted so that your arm forms a right
angle when you place your hand over the keyboard while sitting
down on a chair.
