The OmniBook cannot use Suspend mode with two of Microsoft's older mouse models (parts #28898
and #07685). The suspend and resume activity causes the OmniBook to lock up with these mice. If you
are using one of these mice, do the following to prevent this problem:
1. Open the BIOS Setup utility (reboot, then press F2).
2. In the Power menu, disable the setting for Resume on Modem Ring.
3. Save and exit the Setup utility.
Status Panel Shows Incorrect Battery Charge Level
Occasionally, the status panel battery indicator will get out of sync with the actual battery charge level.
This is normal in certain situations. The indicator will resync with the battery charge.
Docking System Compatibility
Your OmniBook is compatible with the F1451A port replicator and F1452A mini dock. You need a
BIOS upgrade to use your OmniBook with the F1477A docking system. Visit the HP website at
http://www.hp.com/omnibook or http://www2.hp.com/omnibook (European mirror) to obtain the latest
related information.
Windows 95
Using Infrared Communications
Infrared communications are, by default, not enabled on the OmniBook computer. To use infrared
communications, read the readme files and load the drivers supplied on the hard drive or on the Recovery
CD under Omnibook\Drivers. Look in the subdirectory for your operating system, then look under Fast IR
or IrDA.
To avoid problems with infrared, enable it only when you actually need to use it and then disable it
again. Close applications using IR or any folders opened remotely over an IR link and disable IR in the
IR Monitor before suspending the OmniBook or docking.
Installing Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.01 under Windows 95
Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.01 was installed when you started your OmniBook for the first time.
However, only the minimum required Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.0 files have been installed,
including the Internet Explorer 4.01 browser and Outlook Express.
For a complete installation of Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.01 on your OmniBook, including all applets
and tools, run the "Internet Explorer 4.0 Active Setup" located under Start Menu, Programs,
Accessories, Internet Tools. This installation will allow you to install one or more of the following
applets
and tools:
* Netmeeting
* FrontPage Express
* NetShow
