Chapter 1. Getting to know your computer  
Connecting USB device  
Your computer comes with two USB ports compatible with USB devices.  
The first time you plug a USB device into a particular USB port on your computer, Windows  
automatically installs a driver for that device. After the driver has been installed, you can  
disconnect and reconnect the device without performing any additional steps.  
Note: Typically, Windows detects a new device after it has been connected, and then installs the driver  
automatically. However, some devices may require you to install the driver before connecting. Check  
the documentation provided by the device’s manufacturer before connecting the device.  
Before disconnecting a USB storage device, make sure your computer has finished transferring  
data to that device. Click the Safely Remove Hardware and Eject Media icon in the Windows  
notification area to remove the device before disconnecting.  
Note: If your USB device uses a power cord, connect the device to a power source before connecting it.  
Otherwise, the device may not be recognized.

failure. You can also create user backups for easy restoration as required.  
Notes:  
If your computer is preinstalled with a GNU/Linux operating system, OneKey Recovery System is  
not available.  
To utilize the features of the OneKey Recovery System, your hard disk already includes a hidden  
partition by default to store the system image file and the OneKey Recovery System program files. This  
default partition is hidden for security reasons, which explains why the available disk space is less than

The back-up process may take a while.  
The back-up process is only available when Windows can be started normally.
