Installing a new operating system

If you install a new operating system in your computer, you need to install the supplement files and ThinkPad device drivers for it at the same time. For more information, see “Installing device drivers” on page 66.

Before you install the operating system, print the instructions you will use.

Notes:

The UEFI BIOS features are supported only on the 64-bit version of the Windows 7 and Windows 8 operating system.

Be sure to set a preferred setting for the UEFI/Legacy Boot option in ThinkPad Setup.

After installing the new operation system, you should not change the initial UEFI/Legacy Boot setting in ThinkPad Setup. The UEFI/Legacy Boot setting must be the same as it was when the Windows operating system image was installed. Otherwise, the new operating system will not boot properly.
