Compaq Service
Connection
The Compaq Service
Connection software
installed on your computer
is an innovative way of
preventing computer
problems. The service
automatically sends you
free, secure software
updates that will keep your
computer in peak operating
condition. You decide when
to install the updates.
A small notice, displayed as
D
,
a rotating
appears on
the bottom-right corner of
the Windows desktop when
an update is available.
If the Service Connection
D
icon is visible on the
Windows taskbar, the
service is already active.
The Compaq Service
Connection software
operates in the background
while you are performing
other tasks on your
computer. You will only be
aware that it is working
when a notice is displayed.
