Security and back up
8. Security and back up
Protect your device
You can protect your device from
unauthorized usage or malicious
software by using passwords and keeping
your antivirus application up to date.
Important: Your device can only support
one antivirus application. Having more
than one application with antivirus
functionality could affect performance
and operation or cause the device to stop
functioning.
Manage passwords
You are prompted to create a Windows
password when you log in for the first
time.
You can also create a password reset disk
on a USB flash drive, so you can reset your
password if you forget it. For instructions,
select Start > Help and Support and enter
Create a password reset disk in the
search box.
Keep your password and your password
reset flash drive secret and in a safe place,
separate from your device.
Internet security
Your device has an antivirus application
pre-installed.
To continue using the pre-installed
antivirus application after the trial, you
need to purchase the license from the
internet security service provider.
Manage the PIN code
To disable or enable the PIN code inquiry,
or to change the PIN code, select the
connections dialog icon at the bottom of
the display. Right click the connection
name, and open the Security tab.

If you forget your PIN code, contact your
network service provider.
Back up data
You can use the Windows backup
functions to back up data. It is
recommended that you save the backup
to an external hard drive. It is also
recommended that you back up your data
weekly, or, if your data is very important,
even daily.
You can also create a whole system image,
which will allow you to restore the
operating system in case of corruption of
system files.
Restore the operating system using a
system image
Create a system image
Select Start > Help and Support and
enter Create a system image in the
search box. Follow the instructions.
Restore a system image
Hold down the F8 key as your computer
starts. You need to press F8 before the
operating system logo appears. If the
operating system logo appears, try again.
In the Advanced Boot Options screen, use
the arrow keys to select Advanced Boot
Options > Repair your Computer.
