HP Compaq Business Desktops come standard with a factory-installed software image. The
image consists of a number of separate software components including the operating system
and its associated components, drivers for the specific hardware devices included with the
system (such as graphics, network interface cards, modems, etc.) and a small number of
additional applications.
Quick fixes (QFEs) are also included with the image for any Microsoft operating system issues
that HP identified as problems that might affect its customers. These QFEs will show up under
the Add/Remove Programs applet in the Control Panel. Since most of these fixes are critical in
nature, they will appear grayed out by design so they cannot be removed.
Standalone service packs may also be preloaded on some systems depending on the version
of the integrated operating system and the timing and nature of the HP Compaq Business
Desktop product introduction. Other software applications that are preloaded include optional
business software. Examples of these types of applications include: Norton Anti-Virus, Altiris
Deployment Solution Agents, Insight Management Agents, and HP Diagnostics for Windows.
In addition, an HP internally-supported application called Application Installer provides a user
interface to allow installation of these optional preloaded programs. (See page 2 for definition
of preloaded applications.)
