How Does It Work?
The Compaq Service Connection software operates in the
background while you are performing other tasks on your
Notebook. You will only be aware that it is working when a
Notice is displayed.
If you are using your modem when the Compaq
Service Connection software initiates an update, it waits until
the modem is idle before downloading any information.
You are not interrupted while using your Web browser
or e-mail programs.
