Section 2 - Hardware Setup (New and Replacements)
This section is divided into two separate areas: one for laptops and one for desktops. Prior to going to the area for your install, please verify the following steps have been performed:
Section 1: Data Backup has been performed if this is a replacement system.
Verify with the user of the workstation, which is being replaced, that the data has been backed up.
Verify that the user is at a point they can be without a machine while these steps are being perfo rmed.
Make sure ALL peripheral devices are disconnected, and only reconnected when requested in these
steps.
NOTE: The CE must wear a static strap before opening any workstations for any reason.
DESKTOP MODELS
DC7100 / D7600 / DC7700 / DC7800 Steps (Prior to Powering up Machine))
NOTE: - These models of workstations should be placed on the desk, and on the floor only as a last resort. NOTE: - The HP Compaq DC7700 is the only model that uses the DVI / VGA adapter, which must be installed so the monitor connects to the expansion card and not the onboard video.
Replacement System
1. Request for user to shut down the workstation that is being replaced and unplug the power cord.
2. Replace the DC7100 / DC7600 / DC7700 / DC7800 system with the one that was shipped to the agent.
** Connect only the monitor, keyboard, mouse, Ethernet cable, and headphones now. **
** Prior to powering on, make sure all other peripheral devices are disconnected. This includes scanners, desktop printers, and any other devices that are connected to that workstation. **
NOTE: - The HP Compaq DC7700 uses a DVI / VGA adapter, which must be installed so the monitor connects to the expansion card and not the onboard video.

Agent Desktop / Laptop – New or Replacement Installation Instructions Version 2/12/2009
Section 5 - Office Verification (Agent/Staff Logon)
Upon completion of these steps, all agents and staff members should be able to logon to their workstations and access their H, W, and S Drives. For recently appointed offices, the users may receive “access denied errors.” These errors should go away within 24 hours of activation. (This is an automated process, which takes effect shortly after an agent appointment or incorporation). To correct issues regarding staff assignments, have the age nt verify access with their AFS or Agency Resources AIMS coordinator.
For New Replacement Desktop to Laptop—or Laptop to Desktop:
For workstation replacement, where a new computer name changes from the old computer name (i.e. laptop to desktop or desktop to laptop replacement), contact Agency Technology Support (Second Level Support) (877-766- 6371, Option 2, Option 3, Option 3) to rename the folders of the backed up data for each user. Be prepared to provide the bar code and serial number of the old system.
Wait for Agency Technology Support to confirm all folders have been renamed before continuing.
Have the user log on. For replacement workstations, a window may appear stating, “Your Data is being Restored.” This may take up to 10 minutes, based on the amount of data on the original workstation. If the user is not in the office, follow the steps below for data not being restored.
Note: Verify all data was restored successfully (i.e. My Documents, Quicken, etc.), and located under My Documents in the Start menu. The user should also start Internet Explorer and verify that their favorites have been restored. If these are missing, contact Agency Technology Support (Second Level Support) (877-766-6371, Option 2, Option 3, Option 3). Report that data did not restore properly on the new workstation.
Once the user verifies all data has been restored correctly, open the H: drive and remove the “Reload BACKUP” folder.
Verify that NECHO printing works on all printers.
1. While In NECHO, ask the agent / staff member select something to print. When the ECHO printer box opens, select the local printer and print.
2. Now print the same thing again, this time selecting the Laserjet printer from the ECHO printer box.
Ask user to launch various applications (Word, Philibert, etc.), and the machine can connect to the Internet and perform properly.

Setting Beginning of Day (BOD) Printer — It is recommended to set BOD to print to the LJ2430
as follows:
Have staff members go into their ECHO environment to the Main Table of Contents.
Choose “Option 9 - Tailoring Your Computer.” “Choose Option 10 - Printer Information.”
The next screen will list the “Beginning of Day Workstation.” Normally, the server name is listed to go to the
“Server System Printer.” (Example, Beginning of Day Workstation: WASXXXXX ).
If the workstation printer shows UNKNOWN, have them clear that field and enter in the server name for that office. (Example: Beginning of Day Workstation: WASXXXXX).
To change the printer, replace the Beginning of Day Workstation name to the printer they intend to use to print. Example: If the computer name is WAWXXXXX, they will replace whatever name is listed with the new computer name to set the prints to go to the workstation printer. Press “PF6” to do a BOD test print and make sure it prints on the BOD printer.
However, only press PF6 to print a test page if the printer you selected has been installed and is available to print.
Have the agent or staff person open “common” applications and verify that they can print (and scan, if applicable) properly to local and networked (print) devices.
CRITICAL NOTE:
MAKE SURE ALL PERIPHERALS ARE ATTACHED TO THE WORKSTATION AND
THE WORKSTATION AND PRINTER ARE WORKING PROPERLY BEFORE LEAVING
THE OFFICE.

Agent Drop Sheet – Leave with Agent
While we make every effort to ensure that the new machine has been brought back up to full operating status, we ask that you perform the following steps for all machines in your office. For workstation replacements: If a “Restore” window appears, please allow up to 10 minutes for restore to complete.
1. Login/logoff and then log back in to the workstation. So that the new workstation recognizes where your data is stored, do an extra login/logoff the first day the workstation is used.
2. Where to Save Your Data. Save all of your data to My Documents, which can be found by going to: C:\Documents and Settings\(your alias)\My Documents. Save to the W:\ drive if you share documents within the office. We may not be able to recover data not stored in these locations if your machine is lost, stolen, or fails to operate properly. The best practice is to store your data in the H: drive. This location is secured to your ID only.
3. Your Quicken Data Quicken data must be, and is by default,
stored in C:\Documents & Settings\(your alias)\My Documents\Quicken. Sharing the Quicken file by placing it in another location is not supported. To access your Quicken data:
A. Launch Quicken 2007 B. Select “I am already a Quicken user.”
Click Next
C. Select “Open a file located on this
computer.” Click Next
D. On the left side of the Open Quicken
File window, click “My Documents.” Double-click the Quicken folder
E. Select your Quicken file – for
example, QDATA, PFA, or BUSINESS. Click OK.
Additional Quicken information is available on the ABS web site under Office Administration > Job Aids > Quicken 2007 Job Aids.
Problems or Questions? Contact the ISC if you have any problems or questions with your new workstation. Thank you!
4. Restoring shared Outlook folders or mailboxes.
If your office shares Outlook email folders or mailboxes, complete the following steps to restore the folders back to your Outlook email on your new workstation:
A. Select Tools-Email Accounts. B. Click the radio button next to 'view or change existing e-mail accounts'. C. Click Next. D. Click on the change button. E. Click on More Settings button. F. Click on the Advanced Tab. G. Click on Add . H. Enter the name or email ID of the mailbox
I. Click on Apply – OK.
J. Click Next, then Finish.
5. End of Day and workstation backup is now performed during log off
data properly to the server. This action occurs when your machine states, “Running Logoff Scripts.” Only data stored in your “My Documents” folder is backed up. If you plan to take your laptop home for the evening, please wait until this completes before undocking it.
6. Connect to the Network Periodically. Workstations, including laptops, must be powered on and connected to the network for at least two
consecutive days, every two weeks, to ensure updates are applied. Workstations without the current updates and changes present a security risk for the protection of State Farm proprietary information, and may be less stable causing more down time.
Note: ** The use of USB Keys / Thumbdrives are prohibited for backing up any data **
Note: ^^ This process must be repeated to add each shared mailbox. ^^
from the machine. Therefore, logging off daily is necessary to back-up
