Introducing the Notebook Computer
Setting Up Your Computer
• Windows 2000: You are not prompted to register, but you can do so by modem by
double-clicking the HP Notebook Registration icon on the desktop, or by clicking the
Register link in the Windows 2000 welcome screen. Make sure the phone line is
connected and follow the onscreen instructions.
If you choose not to register right away, you can do so by modem later by double-
clicking the Registration icon on the desktop. Make sure the phone line is connected and
follow the onscreen instructions. The icon disappears after you register.
By phone
You can register by calling your HP Customer Care Center. See "To contact the HP
Customer Care Center" on page 170 for the phone number.
By fax
If you have a printer connected to your computer, you can print a registration form and
fax it to HP. Double-click the HP Notebook Registration icon on the desktop, and print
the registration form. You will find the fax number on the form.
To connect the floppy disk drive
If you don't have an expansion base, you can connect the floppy disk drive to a USB
port.
• Connect the USB floppy cable directly to the floppy drive and to the USB port.
If you have an expansion base, you can insert the floppy drive in a module bay—see "To
replace a plug-in module" on page 63.
