    I have bought a laptop first time. It is Thinkpad T420 with windows 7. I don't know what are things I need to do before I start using it. It is still lying in the box. Can anybody help me. Sorry for posting such a stupid question, but I don't know much about these things.

    you'll need to get System update from lenovo, then enter your model and selection the drivers you want to download.
    Also you will most likely have to run windows update a few times.
