Notebook computers require the installation of specialized hardware drivers
only the notebook manufacturer can provide.
Visit the support website of the manufacturer of your notebook and download
the Windows XP drivers designed for your specific model notebook, including
the video adapter and audio device drivers.
After installing the new drivers, right-click on your Desktop and select:
Properties > Settings and change the Color Quality to Highest (32-bit), then
adjust the Screen Resolution to your liking.
Then visit
http://www.microsoft.com/typography/cleartype/default.htm
and click on "ClearType Tuner Updated".
On the back of the Windows XP box, please read the statement
"For installation and use on one computer"
(see License Agreement for license terms).
To access the License Agreement on your XP computer, go to:
Start > Run and type: WINVER , and hit enter.
Then click on "End-User License Agreement".
You can also open XP's "Help and Support" and type: EULA
and hit enter. Click on "Questions and answers about the EULA".
The End-User License Agreement states quite clearly:
"You may install, use, access, display and run one copy
of the Software on a single computer...."
You can install one (1) copy of Windows XP on one (1) computer.
Additional installations requires additional licenses (Product Keys)
for each installation on a different computer.
HOW TO: Change the Product Key at the Time of Activation
