Addendum to LifeBook T4215 User’s Guide

Microsoft Windows Vista™-Related Information

Please save this addendum with your LifeBook

T4215 User’s Guide for future reference.

The user’s guide for your Fujitsu® LifeBook® T4215 is based upon the Microsoft Windows XP operating system. This addendum provides the differences between the Windows XP operating system and your Microsoft Windows Vista operating system.

1. Starting Windows Vista the first time

Please use the information below in place of "Booting the System" on page 40 of the User’s Guide.

The first time you initialize your Windows

Vista system, the screen will be blank for

approximately two minutes. This is normal. After initialization, a “Set Up Windows” dialog box will appear.

Important: During the setup procedure, do not disconnect the power supply, press any buttons, or use any peripheral devices such as a mouse, keyboard, or remote control.

1.First of all, you will need to read and accept the End User License Agreements (EULAs).

■If you reject the terms of the license agreement you will be asked to review the license agreement for information on returning Windows or to shut down your LifeBook notebook.

■You cannot use your notebook until you have accepted the License Agreement. If you stop the process your notebook will return to the beginning of the Windows Welcome Process, even if you shut your notebook down and start it up again.

2.You will be prompted to enter your User Name and Password and you will be given a chance to select an icon for your account.

3.The next screen asks for a Computer Name and allows you to choose a desktop background.

4.You will next see a "Help protect Windows automati- cally" screen in which the default choice is "Use recommended settings”. The other two choices are "Install important updates only" and "Ask me later". Select from the three choices.

5.On the next screen set your time and date settings.

6.You will next see the "Select your computer's current location" screen. Make your selection from Home, Work (Default), and Public location.

7.The "Thank you" screen follows and an offer for Norton is extended. Following are several screens while Windows checks the system performance.

8.Windows will then boot up for the first time.

2. Registering Windows Vista with Microsoft

In order to ensure that you receive the most benefits from the Windows Vista operating system, it should be registered the first time you use it.

1.After Windows has booted up for the first time, the Welcome Center will appear. If the Register Windows Online icon is not seen in the window, click on “Show all 14 items”.

2.Click on Register Windows Online and follow the instructions that appear to register your copy of Windows.
