Using HP User Tools

HP User Tools give you a convenient way in Windows 95 to change the way your OmniBook looks and operates. For many settings, it’s an alternative to using the System Configuration Utility.

To run HP User Tools

1.Click Start, HP User Tools.

2.Click the tabs and buttons for the changes you want to make. You’re prompted if you need to reboot the computer. Click Help or see the table below for more information.

3.After you make the changes, exit HP User Tools.

Information 1	Opens the OmniBook User’s Guide and other online sources of
	information.
Information 2	Shows the HP software license agreement, and shows the
	BIOS version and the amount of system memory.
Setup
OmniBook	Display:
	Sets whether the built-in display is on or off when an external
	display is present.
	Password:
	“Set User Password.” The user password protects certain
	events, but doesn’t give access to protected administrator
	options, such as PC ID.
	“User Password Required” sets whether a password is required
	when the computer starts, before undocking, or when changing
	OmniBook settings such as those in the SCU.
	“Set Admin Password.” The administrator password provides
	protection equal to the user password plus PC ID and
	OmniBook setting protection. The administrator password can
	be used whenever the user password is requested, such as
	when changing the user password.
	“Admin Password Required” sets whether PC ID and
	OmniBook setting changes are protected by the administrator
	password.
	Power:
	“Options for Battery Power” balances the tradeoffs between
	power savings and performance speed while operating on
	battery power. Click Custom to set timeouts individually.
	“Idle Time Before Turn-Off” shows the individual timeouts.
