HP OmniBook 5700 Installation And Setup Manual page 13

As part of the setup procedure, you must make a one-time, final selection of the
operating system you want to use. Once made, this selection can be changed only
by purchasing new copies of DOS 6.22 and Windows for Workgroups. (Windows 95
is included on the Recovery CD-ROM.)
Should you later need to reinstall the operating system, you can reinstall Windows
95 from the Recovery CD—or Windows for Workgroups from retail disks, which you
purchase. Instructions for reinstalling an operating system are in chapter 2 of this
manual.
Recovery CD
When your OmniBook starts up the first time, it takes you through a series of setup
screens, including installation of the operating system.
If you have a docking system, you should not have it connected during the
Important
installation of the operating system.
If you're installing Windows for Workgroups
CAUTION When prompted to do so, it is important that you make back-up installation disks
for MS-DOS and Windows for Workgroups. This will require 12 floppy disks—eight
disks for Windows and 4 for MS.DOS 6.22. (The back-up program will format the
disks. You will need these installation disks to install certain drivers (such as printers
and networks), as well as to recover your operating system in case of a failure. If you
do not make these disks, you will need to purchase your own copies of MS-DOS
6.22 and Windows for Workgroups. (You can make these back-up disks at any time
from the icon in the Windows OmniBook group.)
1. Plug in the ac adapter.
2. Press the blue On/Suspend button.
3. In the Windows Version screen, click the Change button.
The Windows 95 Setup program starts automatically. The Setup screens are
labeled Windows 95, but they are for Windows for Workgroups, too.
After you accept the License Agreement and enter the Product ID (printed on
the Certificate of Authenticity on the Microsoft Introducing Windows 95 book),
you will see the Windows Version screen. If you choose Windows for
Workgroups, the product ID is not necessary.
