Support CD for Windows
The Notebook PC you purchased may or may not be preloaded with an operating system. The support CD
included with this Notebook PC provides all the necessary drivers and utilities in order for you to use your
Notebook PC with Microsoft
®
Windows
®
XP (referred to as "Windows" in this User's Manual).
The levels of hardware and software support may vary depending on the installed operating system. Operat-
ing systems not pre-installed on this Notebook PC may produce different results than the ones described in
the provided user's manuals.
If your Notebook PC is not preloaded with any operating system, or you want to install another operating
system other than the preloaded one, the following pages will give step-by-step installation procedures for
®
typical system configurations under the Windows
operating system. For application usage, please see the
online help provided with each of the applications after installation. The following are contents of a typical
support CD. Variations may be found for each territory or language. If the autorun menu does not appear,
double clicking the CD-ROM disc drive icon in "My Computer" (may be the (D:) drive or (E:) drive on hard
drives with two partitions) or running SETUP.EXE (through Start menu "Run...") located in the root of the
support CD, will bring up the autorun menu.
Drivers for Windows
The following are descriptions of each autorun menu item. Due to ongoing improvements in the support CD,
there may be some differences between this User's Manual and your support CD. The names in quotations
are the actual driver names displayed in the System Properties of MS Windows. Windows cannot contain all
the device drivers from every manufacturer, with every update; therefore the provided support CD will
contain the best driver for your built-in devices and should be used in place of any Windows default drivers.
