Beginning to Use the Tablet PC
If you prefer to install optional software now, without referring to the Documentation Library CD, the following information may be helpful:
ÄCAUTION: To prevent file corruption and be sure that the correct drivers are installed, install software only when the tablet PC is connected to external power through the AC adapter or an optional docking station. (Do not install software while the tablet PC is running on battery power.) During the installation:
■Do not unplug the tablet PC from external power.
■Do not undock the tablet PC.
■Do not shut down the tablet PC.
■To view the descriptions and space requirements of preloaded
Compaq utilities without installing them, select Start > All Programs > Software Setup > Next button. After viewing the utility information, select the Cancel button.
■To install a preloaded Compaq utility, select Start > All Programs > Software Setup, then follow the instructions on the screen.
■To install an application or a utility from a CD, refer to the documentation included with the CD. In most cases, installation instructions are included in the CD package or are displayed on the screen when the CD is inserted.
A software CD can be used in an optical drive inserted in the MultiBay of an optional docking station or External MultiBay.
