Windows Quick Install Guide
1. Insert the Windows ME/2000 CD into the CD-ROM drive.
2. A T API CD-ROM Drive must be set to boot before the Hard Drive in BIOS setup (press F2 during boot)
or press Esc and select “AT API CD-ROM Drive” (use the up and down arrows and press Enter)
IMPORTANT : In most cases, you will be prompted to press a key to boot fr om the CD. Failure
to do so will result in booting from your next boot device.
3. Press Enter to Setup Windows and press F8 after you have read and accepted the Licensing Agreement.
4. Windows ME: If you have an existing OS, you can choose to install Windows ME in another
directory in order to preserve your existing OS. You will be given an OS choice each time you boot
up your Notebook PC. If you currently use Windows 95/98 and wish to preserve your installed
applications and settings, “upgrade” Windows by installing into your existing directory.
Windows 2000: If you have a previous OS, press ESC to install a fresh copy of Windows 2000.
Follow the next screens to partition your hard drive. Use the “NTFS” file system for increased
functionality. Installing in the same partition as an existing OS will give you a choice to format or
leave intact. If you leave intact without formatting, you will be given an OS choice each time you
boot up your Notebook PC.
5. After you install Windows, insert the Notebook PC support CD to install drivers and utilities.

Support CD for Windows ME & 2000
The Notebook PC you purchased may or may not be preloaded with an operating system. The support CD
included with this Notebook PC provides all the necessary drivers and utilities in order for you to use your
Notebook PC with Microsoft® Windows® 98/ME/2000 (referred to as “Windows” in this User’s Manual).
This Notebook PC offers its customers the choice of a pre-installed operating system such as Microsoft
Windows ME (Millennium Edition) or Windows 2000. The choices and languages will depend on the
territory . The levels of hardware and software support may vary depending on the installed operating system.
Operating systems not pre-installed on this Notebook PC may produce different results than the ones described in the provided user’s manuals.
If your Notebook PC is not preloaded with any operating system, or you want to install another operating
system other than the preloaded one, the following pages will give step-by-step installation procedures for
typical system configurations under the Windows
online help provided with each of the applications after installation. The following is what you will see when
you insert the support CD. If the autorun menu does not appear, double clicking the CD-ROM disc drive icon
in “My Computer” (may be the (D:) drive or (E:) drive on hard drives with two partitions) or running SETUP .EXE
(through Start menu “Run...”) located in the root of the support CD, will bring up the autorun menu.

operating system. For application usage, please see the
Drivers for Windows ME & 2000
The following are descriptions of what each autorun menu item does when selected with the mouse. Due to
ongoing improvements in the support CD, there may be some differences between this User’s Manual and
your support CD. The names in quotations are the actual driver names displayed in the System Properties of
MS Windows. Windows cannot contain all the device drivers from every manufacturer, with every update;
therefore the provided support CD will contain the best driver for your built-in devices and should be used in
place of any Windows default drivers.
