Setting Up the Tablet PC
Setting Up Tablet PC Hardware with a Standard USB Keyboard
To set up a tablet PC with an optional standard USB keyboard, follow the instructions below. To set up a tablet PC with a tablet PC keyboard, see “Setting Up Tablet PC Hardware with a Tablet PC Keyboard,” first in this chapter.
During the hardware setup, you will:
1.Remove the tablet PC from the portfolio.
2.Insert the battery pack into the tablet PC so the battery pack can charge.
ÄCAUTION: To prevent unsuccessful software installations or modifications, do not run the tablet PC on the battery pack while you are setting up or modifying system software.
3.Connect the tablet PC to external power.
4.Connect an optional USB keyboard to the tablet PC so the keyboard can be used during software setup.
During software setup you are prompted to press the F10 key on an optional keyboard attached to the tablet PC. The keyboard can be either a tablet PC keyboard or a standard USB keyboard. You can respond to all other software setup prompts with the tablet PC pen or either keyboard. A standard USB keyboard can be purchased from your Compaq dealer or from most computer retailers.
5.Turn on the tablet PC.
To set up the pen and the tablet PC software, proceed to “Setting Up the Pen” and “Setting Up the Software,” earlier in this chapter.
If you need help during any hardware or software setup procedure, see Chapter 3.
For more information about any exterior hardware feature on the tablet PC or the tablet PC keyboard, see Chapter 4.
