Chapter 6. Safety, Use, and Care Information

 If required, you can find your country’s Customer Support Center at the

following Web address: http://consumersupport.lenovo.com

When calling the Customer Support Center, please make sure you have

your machine type, model, and serial number available and the

computer is in front of you. Also, if the machine is producing error

codes, it is helpful to have the error screen on or the message written

down.

Device drivers are programs that contain instructions for the operating

system about how to operate or “drive” a certain piece of hardware. Each

hardware component on your computer has its own specific driver. If you

add a new component, the operating system needs to be instructed on

how to operate that piece of hardware. After you install the driver, the

operating system can recognize the hardware component and understand

how to use it.

Note:

Due to the fact that drivers are programs, like any other file on your

computer, they are susceptible to corruption and might not perform

properly if corruption occurs.
