Chapter 2. Installing Windows 2000 Windows 2000 presents some challenges when installing the operating system if the IDE CD-ROM option is not installed on your SurePOS 300 terminal. However, you can easily modify the Windows 2000 installation media to support the SurePOS 300. The instructions below outline the procedure, which can be used to install the operating system. Requirements v Windows 2000 Professional CD-ROM v Windows 2000 Professional Setup Boot Diskettes (4 diskettes created by the CD-ROM). If you do not have these disks, you can create them using MAKEBOOT.EXE, located in the \bootdisk folder on the CD-ROM v USB or PS/2 Keyboard and Mouse v External USB Floppy Disk Drive v External USB CD-ROM Drive (if IDE CD-ROM option is not present) v SATA Driver Disk (download from RSS support http://www.ibm.com/solutions/ retail/store/support) Configuring the Windows 2000 Professional Setup Diskettes Note: This section only applies to SurePOS 300 systems without the internal IDE CD-ROM option. Support for the IBM USB CDROM drive is not included in the operating system by default. This is because the USB vendor ID and device ID do not match the list of supported devices in the setup diskettes. Therefore, it must be included in the Windows 2000 Professional setup diskettes. Follow the directions below to configure the setup diskettes. 1. Insert Windows 2000 Professional setup diskette # 1. 2. Open TXTSETUP.SIF in a text editor. 3. Under the HardwareIdsDatabase section, add one of the following lines: IBM USB CDRom Drive (02N8239 / 33L5151) USB\VID_04B3&PID_4427 = "usbstor" ;IBM USB CD-ROM VID/PID P/N 33L5151 IBM USB CDRW/DVD Drive (73P4516) USB\VID_04DA&PID_0D0E = "usbstor" ;IBM USB Combo P/N 73P4516 4. If you do not have the Hardware ID for the specific CD-ROM device you are using, you can locate the MachingDeviceID key using the Windows System Information utility: a. Plug the USB drive into any Windows XP or 2000 system. Wait until the system has detected the drive, and it is functional. b. Open System Information, and look for the device you connected, under USB. © Copyright IBM Corp. 2005 5
