Installing the DMI Package from Windows 95

The DMI package is included with the OmniBook, but it must be properly installed before it can be used. The following steps explain how.

To install the DMI preloaded on the hard disk:

Start Windows 95, if it is not already running.

Click on “Start”.

Go to “Programs - HP DMI”.

Select and run “SETUP”.

To alternatively install the DMI from floppy disks;

Copy the DMI software from the \omnibook\drivers\win95\dmi directory of either the hard disk or Recovery CD to two floppy diskettes (copy contents of the \disk1 subdirectory to diskette #1 and contents of the \disk2 subdirectory to diskette #2).

Start Windows 95, if it is not already running.

Insert diskette #1 into the floppy drive.

Select and run the SETUP program from the diskette #1.

Uninstalling the DMI Package from Windows 95

Go to the HP DMI group.

Launch the program “Uninstall DMI”.

Reboot the PC.
