COMPAQ PRESARIO DESKTOP PRODUCTS
Warranty and License Information
To Our Valued Customer
Congratulations on your decision to purchase a Compaq Presario PC! During development, the
Compaq Presario must pass extensive quality tests to meet the rigorous standards that have made
Compaq famous for quality and reliability.
All Compaq Presarios go through a comprehensive quality test to ensure the PC is working correctly
before it leaves our factory. In addition, we have placed a security seal on your PC to indicate that
it has not been tampered with since it left our factory.
We know that expanding and upgrading are key benefits for all customers. We are proud to make
this a key differentiator for our Compaq Presario and understand that you may wish to upgrade
your PC to meet your specific needs.
Any hardware upgrades that you intend to do should only be done after you have completely set
up your new Compaq Presario. Refer to the setup poster included with your system for help with
setting up. If you have any problems setting up your system and turning it on, immediately contact
the Compaq Customer Support Center listed earlier in this Warranty and Support Guide, and a
Compaq Customer Representative will assist you. This must be done first before attempting to
upgrade your system.
By breaking the security seal on the back of the Compaq Presario, you are confirming that the
Compaq Presario was working properly before you attempted to upgrade your system. Once the
security seal has been broken, your Compaq Presario is then, to the extent allowed by local law,
covered under the terms and conditions listed in the following pages.
Thank you for choosing the Compaq Presario. We hope you enjoy discovering the exciting things
you can do with it!
