Chipset

Mobile Intel GS45 Express Chipset ICH9M-Enhanced

Intel Centrino 2 with vPro
Intel Centrino 2 with vPro technology is a selectable feature that is available on units configured with an
technology capable
Intel WiFi Link 5100. It provides advances in remote manageability, security, energy efficient
performance, and wireless connectivity. Intel Active Management Technology (AMT) offers built-in
manageability and proactive security for networked notebook PCs, even when they are powered off* or
when the operating system is inoperable. It can help identify threats before they reach the operating
system, isolate infected systems, and update PCs regardless of their power state.
*Requires a Windows operating system, network hardware and software, connection with a power
source, and a direct (non-VPN) corporate network connection which is either cable or wireless LAN.
NOTE: Some functionality of Intel Centrino 2 and vPro technology, such as Intel Active Management
technology and Intel Virtualization technology, requires additional 3rd party software in order to run.
Availability of future "virtual appliances" applications for Centrino 2 and vPro technology is dependant on
3rd party software providers. Compatibility with future "virtual appliances" and Microsoft Windows Vista
operating system is yet to be determined.

Memory

NOTE: Due to the non-industry standard nature of some third-party memory modules, we recommend HP
branded memory to ensure compatibility. If you mix memory speeds, the system will perform at the lower
memory speed. Availability of 4 GB or more of memory requires Windows Vista Business 64-bit or Linux.
With Windows 32-bit operating systems, memory above 3 GB may not all be available due to system
resource requirements.

* The term "10/100/1000" or "Gigabit" Ethernet indicates compliance with IEEE standard 802.3ab for
Gigabit Ethernet, and does not connote actual operating speed of 1 Gb/s. For high-speed transmission,
connection to a Gigabit Ethernet server and network infrastructure is required.
** Designed for downloads from 56K modem compliant sources. Maximum achievable download

NOTE: This chart does not represent all possible memory configurations. Due to the non-industry standard nature of some third-party
memory modules, we strongly recommend using only HP branded memory modules to ensure compatibility. If you mix memory
speeds, the system will perform at the lower memory speed. Availability of 4 GB or more of memory requires Windows Vista Business
64-bit or Linux. With Windows 32-bit operating systems, memory above 3 GB may not all be available due to system resource
requirements.
