17. Software

This section deals with the subject of software. We distinguish here between the

operating system, the software (the applications), the Windows activation and

the UEFI firmware configuration.

PLEASE NOTE!

The current Windows family currently includes Windows 8 and Windows

8.1. Windows 8.1 is the first update of the Windows 8 generation.

17.1. Getting to Know Windows

Windows

8, the new operating system from Microsoft, contains a series of

innovative functions and new technologies that your Notebook uses to work

quickly and reliably. At the same time, it is also designed to be easy to use.

17.2. Windows Activation

To protect against software piracy, Microsoft has introduced product activation. The

Windows

8 version installed on your Notebook and supplied with the Notebook

must be activated to enable you to use of all Windows

8 functions.

To do this, you require simply an Internet connection. The activation process is fully

automatic; no personal data will be transmitted.

If no Internet connection is available, select telephone activation as follows:

 Move the mouse pointer into the top right or bottom corner of the display and

click Settings.

 Next, click Change PC settings.

 Select the Activate Windows item.

 Now click Activate by phone.

 Click Next after choosing your country.

 Call one of the specified hotlines on the telephone and read out the column of

figures displayed when prompted to do so.

 You will then be given a confirmation ID over the telephone.

Enter this in the empty field and click Activate.

PLEASE NOTE!

If you have not activated Windows® 8, not all functions will be available

to you under PC settings. A watermark will also continue to be displayed

at the bottom right on the traditional desktop.
