Precautions for Operating System Support
The operating system (OS) installed on this product is the latest version of Windows
Vista. You cannot install an operating system other than Windows Vista as well as any
unauthorized copy of Windows Vista.
Example) When trying to install Windows Vista Home Premium when Windows Vista
Home Basic is already installed.
Other operating systems (Windows 98, Windows ME, Windows 2000, Windows 2003
server, UNIXand LINUX, other Windows Vista versions, etc.) other than the operating
system already installed on this computer are not supported.
If a problem occurs because of the installation of another operating system, the
company will not provide technical support, a replacement or refund, and if our service
engineer visits you due to this problem, a service charge will be applied.
In addition, installing a program that does not support Windows Vista, may cause the
program to not work properly.

request our services to resolve a problem caused by incompatible software, a service
charge will be applied.

zOnline games and some games(3D,2D) may not be supported and Full HD video

x There is one memory slot provided on this computer. It supports 2GB memory

About the Product Capacity Representation Standard
About HDD Capacity Representation
The capacity of the storage device (HDD, SSD) of the manufacturer is calculated
assuming that 1KB=1,000 Bytes.
However, the operating system (Windows) calculates the storage device capacity
assuming that 1KB=1,024 Bytes, and therefore the capacity representation of the
HDD in Windows is smaller than the actual capacity due to the difference in capacity
calculation.
(E.g. For a 80GB HDD, Windows represents the capacity as 74.5GB,
80x1,000x1,000x1,000 byte/(1,024x1,024x1,024)byte = 74.505GB)
In addition, the capacity representation in Windows may be even smaller because some
programs such as Recovery Solution may reside in a hidden area of the HDD.
About Memory Capacity Representation
The memory capacity reported in Windows is less than the actual capacity of memory.
This is because BIOS or a video adapter uses a portion of memory or claims it for
further use.
(E.g. For 1GB(=1,024MB) memory installed, Windows may report the capacity as
1,022MB or less)
