Using The Recovery Cd; To Recover The Factory Installation Of Windows - HP OmniBook XE Setup Manual

Using the Recovery CD

You can use the OmniBook Recovery CD to recover an original OmniBook build, or
you can use it to install the HP custom software over a user-installed alternate
operating system.
The Recovery CD provides the OmniBook-specific Windows drivers to configure
your custom system. The drivers for Windows 95, Windows 98, and Windows NT are
different, so be sure to obtain the appropriate drivers for your operating system. You
can find drivers:
On the OmniBook hard drive under C:\Omnibook\Drivers.
On the Recovery CD, under \Omnibook\Drivers\<os> (<os> represents your
operating system: W95 for Windows 95, W98 for Windows 98, or Nt4 for
Windows NT 4.0).
On the OmniBook website at www.hp.com/omnibook. This website contains the
latest updates of software drivers for all three operating systems.
You will find drivers for the operating system that was shipped with your
OmniBook on the hard drive and on the Recovery CD. If you want drivers for one
of the other Windows operating systems, please check the website.
