When to Reconfigure the

Workstation

System configuration is the process of specifying the devices and programs that make up a system. When you add or remove optional devices, you must reconfigure the workstation by running Computer Setup for the changes to be recognized.

Run the Computer Setup utility after you complete the installation. To configure in Windows NT, use Control Panel and configure your specific option.

If configuration settings are incorrect, one or more devices may not work properly, and you may receive an error message. If this occurs, run the Computer Setup utility again. See Chapter 2 of this guide for more information on Computer Setup.
