Protecting the PC 

HP provides a virus-scanning software program 
to help protect your PC (select models only).  

The virus-scanning program manufacturer 
provides free virus scan updates through your 
Internet connection for an initial period after your 
PC purchase. You can purchase a subscription 
service for updates after the initial free period 
expires. 

New types of viruses are invented all the 
time. Get regular updates of your virus-scanning 
software from the program manufacturer. 

If a software program or the operating system 
gets damaged, reinstall the software. Refer to 
“Using Application Recovery and System 
Recovery” on page 95 for details. 

 

When your PC has software problems, it’s 
possible that a voltage spike, power outage, or 
brownout has occurred. Symptoms of voltage 
spikes include a flickering video display, 
unexpected PC startups, and the PC not 
responding to your commands. A voltage spike 
can occasionally corrupt or destroy files, so it is 
a good idea to consistently make backup copies 
of your data files. Prevent voltage spikes by 
installing a surge suppressor made for use 
with PCs between the power outlet and 
the PC power cord.
