CHANGING HARDWARE AND SOFTWARE
Your Medion notebook includes everything you need to get started right
away. However, we have also made it easy to add third-party hardware and
software so you can customize your Medion notebook to meet your specific
needs.
Adding Software (Programs, Games, etc.)
During software installations, important files can be changed or even deleted.
Medion recommends that you set a Windows XP recovery point before
installing software. Instructions and additional information about Windows XP
recovery points can be found in the
System Recovery
section of this manual.
For specific installation information, refer to the documentation that came
with the software program. Here is a typical installation procedure.

installer program does not start automatically, you can manually start
it by double-clicking
