If you already own an HP xw8600 workstation shipped with a previous release of your Visual Effects, Finishing
and Colour Grading application, you do not need to change its configuration. But, you do need to verify
its BIOS settings.
NOTE In most cases, both hardware setup and application installation is done on delivery by an authorized
technician. If this is the case, please keep this guide as a reference, in case you decide to move the workstation,
change a peripheral, replace an adapter card, etc.
