Introduction
The Image Library and Diagnostics System CD-ROM and its use in the recovery of HP preloaded software.
Page 10
Your Preloaded Software
Your HP PC is delivered with preloaded software already in place on the hard disk. This includes the operating system, all the correct drivers for your hardware, plus special HP utilities to support you if you should run into difficulties at any time during the working life of the PC.
To provide a secure backup against software corruption, the entire preloaded system can be restored using the HP CD-ROMs provided with your PC. These utilities permit a rapid trouble-free restart should you ever need to reinstall your operating system, drivers and/or HP utilities.
Full Recovery of Preloaded Software
Two steps to carry out a complete reinstallation of all preloaded software on your PC:
1 Use the Image Creation and Recovery CD-ROM to restore the
operating system (and HP disk partition). Refer to the documentation on the Image Creation and Recovery CD-ROM for details
2 When the OS is reinstalled and running, use the Image Library and
Diagnostics CD-ROM to reinstall the specific drivers, HP
applications and utilities.

What is the Image Library & Diagnostics System CD-ROM?
The Image Library & Diagnostics (ILD) System CD is a CD-ROM that contains drivers and HP utilities for HP PCs. The drivers and utilities are packaged to enable you to perform automatic installations on local PCs. A friendly user-interface simplifies this process.
The ILD CD-ROM also contains a diagnostic package called HP e-DiagTools for hardware diagnostics. You can run it by booting your PC from the CD to perform hardware diagnostics.
This User’s Guide describes the Image Library section of the ILD CD­ROM, and the User Interface, and explains how to use it to select and load software.
In addition, start-up notes on e-DiagTools are included to make clear the operation of the CD. HP e-DiagTools are fully documented elsewhere.

HP PC Image Engineer Products
The Image Library & Diagnostic CD is one part of HP PC Image Engineer solutions. The HP PC Image Engineer suit comprises these products:
Image Creation and Recovery CD-ROM
Image Library (Administrator version) CD-ROM
Image Library and Diagnostics System CD-ROM
Image Transition Tool
Image Creation and Recovery CD-ROM
This CD-ROM is provided with most new HP PCs. It contains on-line documentation fully explaining its use. With the latest, full-featured version, you can:
Recover the operating system
Set disk partitioning parameters
Upgrade or downgrade the operating system (to the alternative
provided on the CD-ROMs) Browse the operating system master files
The ICR CD-ROM can be used in cases where you must reinstall your operating system and other software, after reformatting your hard disk. This may be useful when you can not guarantee the integrity of you software, for instance due to virus infection.
Image Library and Diagnostics System CD-ROM
This CD-ROM is the subject of the present Guide. It is included with your PC for most models and language versions. The ILD CD-ROM is used to carry out automated software recovery and/or diagnostics on single PCs:
Recover all drivers, applications and HP utilities
Recover individual drivers
Run HP e-DiagTools, the hardware diagnostics utilities
12
Page 13
Image Transition Tool
The Image Transition Tool is a CD-ROM software utility to help you adapt an existing PC’s disk image to a new HP PC. Check availability with your HP supplier, or on HP websites.
Image Library (Administrator version) CD-ROM
This is a full ‘Administrator Version’ of the Image Library, and is intended for MIS, IT, or system administration personnel. The administrator version will perform automatic installations on local PCs, and additionally provides software packages in other formats, so that a server may be updated to perform remote installation using your own deployment or maintenance solution, Microsoft SMS2.0, or HP TopTools. For detailed information on this package, refer to the Image Library: System Administrator’s Guide on the Image Library Administrator Version CD-ROM.
When should I use Image Library (Administrator version)?
The Image Library (Administrator version) CD-ROM is for use in the following cases only:
with SMS 2.0 for installation of SMS packages,
with a compatible proprietary loader to install the Automatic
Packages, with TopTools for maintenance (only) using the TopTools Driver
Update Packages
In any other situation, the Image Library and Diagnosis System CD­ROM provides the correct version of Image Library.
NOTE Not all the Image Engineer products are packaged with each PC.
NOTE The range of language versions available may vary between tools.

Running Image Library from the CD-ROM
To run Image Library from the HP Image Library & Diagnostics System CD, insert the CD-ROM in your optical drive while your Windows operating system is running. The user interface will start automatically (if not, check that the ‘AutoPlay’ CD function is enabled).
Alternatively, you may run the Image Library manually by clicking on Start and selecting the option Run. Then Enter the command:
D:\FrontPanel
where ‘D:’ defines your optical drive location.
For details, see “Starting and Using the User Interface” on page 22 of this Guide.
Running e-Diag Tools from
To run e-DiagTools from your HP Image Library & Diagnostics CD, follow this procedure:
1 Insert the CD-ROM in your optical drive
2 Shut down the operating system and restart your computer
3 Ensure that the CD-ROM drive is configured in the BIOS to be the
first device to boot from. Set the BIOS attribute ‘PNP OS’ to the option ‘No
4 The PC boots from the CD-ROM. The programs on the CD-ROM will
automatically determine the appropriate version of e-DiagTools to run and the main Diagnostics menu of the CD-ROM appears.
Select the option to run the hardware diagnostics. This will open e­DiagTools.

Image Library Contents
The drivers and HP software utilities comprising the Image Library are provided in the form of automatic packages.
An Automatic installation package is an executable file that installs a software component automatically, without the need for user intervention. The automatic packages in the Image Library & Diagnostics CD-ROM are suitable for performing a local installation.
Each automatic package consists of a single executable file ****....eeeexxxxeeee, and a
information file ****.i
.innnniiii, plus an explanatory file ****....hhhhttttmmmm.
.i.i
List of Components and Version Numbers
Detailed Information on CD Contents
Each ****....eeeexxxxeeee file is executable alone, without the support of the other
files. This permits installation of the driver by hand, simply by launching the executable file.
To view a complete list of components available on the Image Library & Diagnostics CD, including the version number of each component, select the option ‘Quick Tour’ on the opening screen of the Image Library user interface.
For detailed information about each automatic package, such as notes, version numbers, and supported platforms, use the Properties Button on the user interface Component Selection screen.

Operating System Installation
Vanilla Operating System
A ‘Vanilla Operating System’ must be installed before you can carry out the automatic installation of drivers and HP utilities described in Chapter 3.
The ‘Vanilla’ OS consists of a version of your Microsoft OS with the minimum set of default drivers required for the PC to operate. Installation of the Vanilla Operating System is described below.
To prepare your PC for the installation of drivers and HP utilities, we recommend you use the Image Creation and Recovery CD-ROM that came with your PC. Simply start the CD-ROM and follow the step by step guide.
The ICR CD-ROM includes options to recreate the special HP Utility Partition on your hard-disk and reinstall the operating system ready for the use of ILD CD.
You may choose instead, to reinstall your operating system using the Microsoft Operating System CD. However, if you reinstall in this manner, the HP Utility Partition will not be created.
Preparation
To prepare for use of the Image Library on the Image Library and Diagnostics System CD-ROM:
1 Start with a blank, formatted hard disk.
2 Using either the HP Image Creation and Recovery CD-ROM, or the
appropriate Microsoft Operating System CD, install one of the following operating systems:
Windows NT 4.0 SP4, SP5 or SP6a
Windows 95 SR2.5 (not preinstalled for e-Vectra)
Windows 98 Second Edition
Windows 2000
