Reinstalling System Software

Follow the instructions in this section only if you have to reinstall the operating system and
associated system software on your InterServe 75. Read and understand the entire chapter

before you begin.

Before You Begin
Have the following items available:
u
The information you recorded earlier in Chapter 2, "Setting Up System Software."
u
Operating system software CD-ROMs, associated diskettes, and documentation. Make
sure you have the Setup diskettes delivered with the operating system.
u
Backup diskettes which you created according to instructions in Chapter 2, "Setting Up
System Software." If you did not create backup diskettes, you can create them now by
inserting the Intergraph System CD-ROM into any computer running Windows NT,
Windows 95, or Windows 98 and running InterSite Version Manager. Create backup
diskettes for the products listed under "System Software Products" in this chapter.
u
Backup diskettes and documentation delivered with any expansion boards or additional
peripheral devices purchased from Intergraph.
u
The Late-Breaking News document delivered with your system.
NOTE On a system with Windows NT Small Business Server, refer to the Microsoft BackOffice Small
Business Server Late-Breaking News and the document for installation instructions.
You can find the system software on backup diskettes that you created, on the Intergraph
System CD-ROM, or on the operating system CD-ROM. If you did not create backup
diskettes of drivers or other system software products, they are probably available on the
operating system CD-ROM or on backup diskettes delivered with expansion boards.
NOTE You must install certain drivers from backup or other diskettes. The correct driver versions
may not be on CD-ROM. If a driver version is delivered on backup diskette or in Version
Manager, that version should be used instead of what is available on CD-ROM.
Driver software is routinely improved and updated. Use InterSite Version Manager, or visit
the Intergraph Computer Systems site on the World Wide Web and vendor bulletin boards for
new and updated drivers.
Review the Late-Breaking News document delivered with your system for any additional tasks
you may have to perform during reinstallation.
