Express Setup

"Express Setup" is intended for initial setup of the server. Its automatic installation mode guides the user easily through the process by detailing specific hardware features and providing screen prompts for software selection and configuration. The program loads the utilities and drivers, applies RAID settings, partitions the disk, and installs the desired operating system.

If you install Windows Server 2003, Windows 2000 , after a few tasks are completed, all that remains to be done is to remove the NEC EXPRESSBUILDER CD-ROM and install the Windows CD-ROM, input a product ID number, and acknowledge the license agreement.

IMPORTANT:

„The Express Setup is intended for the initial setup of the server system and, therefore, the Express Setup clears the contents of the hard disk.

„When the setup is started, do not turn off the server until the setup is completed, and also make sure not to remove the "Configuration Diskette" from the floppy disk drive until the message that allow you to remove it appeared.

Tools

"Tools" is also intended for initial setup of the server. It provides more installation options than Express Setup and permits the user to quickly create utility support disks, run the Off-line Maintenance Utility and system diagnostic utility, set up a maintenance partition, and update the various BIOS programs.
