BOOTING THE SYSTEM WITH WINDOWS 98
We strongly recommend that you not attach any external
devices and do not put a DVD/CD or floppy disk in any
drive until you have gone through the initial power on
sequence.
When you turn on your notebook for the first time,
it will display a Fujitsu logo on the screen. If you do
nothing the system will read the hard drive for the
operating system software, flash the notebook configura-
tion information on the screen, and then the Windows
98 Welcome will begin.
Designed to accommodate the needs of many users, in
many different countries, Windows 98 needs to be
configured the first time you use it. Windows 98
has three parts:
■ Getting Started: You have the opportunity to enter
custom information for your configuration file and
setup your modem so that your notebook will be
prepared to dial out.
■ Registration: Easy online registration for Windows
98 with Microsoft, and for your LifeBook Series
notebook with Fujitsu PC Corporation.
■ Windows License Agreement and Final Settings:
You have the opportunity to review the Windows 98
License Agreement and then your configuration file
will be generated
Getting Started
Read the instructions on the screens carefully and fill
in the information as directed. You will be asked for such
items as the language you wish to use, the country in
which you live, your first and last name, and about
how you dial out from where you will be using your
notebook. For the modem settings, enter your current
location information where you will be using your
notebook. If you are not connected to a phone line
and plan to register at a later time, you may click the
Skip button, and you will go directly to the condition
of use page.
Once you have setup your notebook to dial out,
Windows 98 will make a free telephone call which will
test these settings. If the call is unsuccessful, you will be
returned to the phone settings page where you may try
to fix them. If you are unable to fix the settings please
contact Fujitsu PC Service and Support. (See Fujitsu PC
Contact Information on page 3 for more information) If
you would simply like to move on, and register at a later
time, you may click the Skip button, and you will go
directly to the Condition of Use page.
Registration
If your connection is successful, you will go to the
Registration Confirmation page. On this page simply
enter the requested information, and then check the
box at the bottom to register your copy of Windows 98
with Microsoft. Once you have finished, click the Next
button to continue.
P O I N T
If your data security settings require it, you may be
asked for a password before the BIOS main menu
will appear.
P O I N T
You may click Cancel at any time within this process to
shutdown Windows 98. You may restart this process at
any time in the future, but you must complete it in
order to use your computer.
