Congratulations on your new windows desktop computer purchase!
USF IT has created the new Direct2u service that enables you to receive your new windows computer directly from the vendor. When you log in for the first time, the system will automatically configure and install the basic software you need to be up and running at USF.
To get started:
- Ensure you have your MFA (Multi-Factor Authentication) device you use for logging into USF systems with you.
- If you are upgrading from another USF computer, ensure you have backed up your files and settings from the old computer.
- Simply log in and follow the on-screen prompts.
Below is an example of what you will see, although it may vary slightly depending on the computer you have purchased.
