You can find the telephone numbers in the help desk list supplied. Please have the following

Our notebooks have been designed primarily with mobile applications in mind. This means
that considerable effort has been made to optimise components and equipment in terms of
weight, space and energy requirements. Depending on the particular configuration you
have purchased, it is possible that functionality may be slightly reduced compared to a
desktop PC if you are running processor-intensive gaming software, e.g. games with
intensive 3D graphics. Updating your hardware with drivers which have not been approved
by Fujitsu Siemens Computers may result in performance losses, data losses or
malfunction of the equipment. A list of approved drivers and current BIOS versions can be
downloaded from:

Restoring installed software
Please create backup copies of your files on a regular basis. If data is lost, you can restore
your applications using the data carriers. However, if you do not have backup copies of
your own data files, it is no longer possible to restore them.
!
If your operating system will not start, or if there are errors on the hard disk, the pre-installed software
may have to be re-installed.
