Notebook User Guide 3.1 Starting Your Operating System The operating system is a must ingredient in using your computer. Without an operating system, it is like playing chess without the chessboard. It is the platform for all your software application programs to run on. The most popular operating system today is Microsoft Windows. You should have installed one operating system by your dealer unless you are an expert computer user and would need a more powerful operating system. If you have an operating system already installed in your computer, then you would be up and running after you power on your computer and boot up the system. Check your operating system manual on how to run it. 3.2 Understanding the Keyboard Functions Your notebook computer is equipped with an 88 keys keyboard that provides all the functionality of a full-sized 101 or 102-key IBM keyboard. Aside from the standard typewriter-layout keyboard of your computer, there are a number of extra features and function controls on the built-in keyboard including Windows system hot keys. 52
