Installing Hot-Swap Support

For the OmniBook 7150 only , the Agaté Tioman "hot-swap" software for Windows
95 and Windows 98 is loaded on the hard disk but it is not installed. If you install
this software, you can switch most modules in the plug-in bay without shutting
down the computer and rebooting. (This software does not support Windows NT.)
Click Start, Programs, Agaté Tioman for HP, Setup, then follow the onscreen
instructions.

Replacing a Plug-In Accessory Module

For Windows 95/Windows 98, if Agaté Tioman hot-swap software is installed, a
plug-in module icon appears at the right end of the taskbar. This software lets
you swap most plug-in modules without shutting down the computer.
If you are removing or inserting a hard disk drive in the module bay, you must
shut down the computer.
If you are removing a battery and inserting another battery, you do not have to
do steps 1 and 2 below—you can just change the batteries.
1. Close all files that are open from the plug-in module
2. If the plug-in module icon is present in the taskbar, right-click the icon, then
click Remove Device. When prompted to remove the module, click OK. (You
do not have to do this if the bay is empty or contains a battery.)
–or–
Click Start, Shut Down to shut down the computer. (You must do this if you are
removing or inserting a hard disk drive in the module bay.)
3. Slide and hold the release latch, then pull out the module, as shown.
