14 Software Update and Recovery Software Updates For optimal notebook performance and to make sure your notebook remains compatible with changing technologies, HP recommends that you install the latest versions of HP software as they become available. To update HP software: 1. Prepare for any update by identifying your notebook type, series or family, and model; refer to the "Accessing Notebook Information" section in this chapter. Prepare for a system ROM update by identifying (through the Computer Setup utility) the ROM versions currently installed on the notebook. 2. Access the updates through your local HP Web site or the Support Software CD (purchased separately). 3. Download and install the updates. ✎ The notebook system ROM stores the BIOS. The BIOS determines how the notebook hardware interacts with the operating system and external devices and also supports such notebook services as time and date. ✎ If your notebook connects to a network, HP recommends that you consult with your network administrator before installing any software updates, especially system ROM updates.
