2 Using Instant On Software (select
models only)
Instant On Software (IOS) is an optional, instant-on environment that is separate from your Windows
operating system. This allows you to rapidly access certain applications without the need to boot your
operating system. You will enjoy this feature if you browse the Internet, view and send email, view digital
photos, listen to music, or keep in touch through instant messages or Skype. IOS is ready to go within
seconds of pressing the power button.
NOTE: IOS is available on select computer models.
IOS includes the following features:
●
Web browser—Search and browse the Internet and create links to your favorite Web sites.
●
Music player—Listen to your favorite music and create playlists.
●
Photo viewer—Browse through photos, create albums, and view slide shows.
●
Skype—Skype is a voice-over-Internet protocol (VOIP) that lets you communicate free of charge
with other Skype users. With Skype, you can have a conference call or a video chat with one or
more people at a time. You can also make long-distance phone calls to land lines.
●
Chat—Chat with friends on multiple Instant Messaging programs, such as AOL, Google Talk, MSN,
Windows Live! Messenger, or Yahoo Messenger.
●
Web calendar—Display, edit, and organize your schedule.
●
Web mail—View and send e-mail.
NOTE: For information on using IOS, refer to the HP Envy 15 User Manual. This guide is located on
the SD card that came with your computer.
