There are two methods to order copies of suitable device drivers and utilities:
Order the Support Software CD for Compaq Desktop Products. This compact disc contains the
latest device drivers, utilities, and flashable ROM images needed to run MS-DOS, Windows 3.1,
Windows 95, Windows NT Workstation 3.51, IBM OS/2, and NetWare on the Compaq commercial
desktop product.
Purchase backup diskettes.
The Support Software CD can be purchased in either of two ways:
A single CD-ROM that gives one-time access to the latest support software (North America only).
A yearly subscription that delivers up to 12 monthly CD-ROMs.
The annual subscription provides continuous access to the latest developments, while the single CD-
ROM offers information as it is needed.
When calling Compaq to place an order, be sure to have the serial number of the computer
available. The serial number is located on the right-hand side of the computer cover and also on the
rear of the chassis. This number is necessary for all purchases.
