Information for all operating systems The setup program that opens when you start the computer is slightly different from the one described in your operating-system manual. Some choices that are described in your operating-system manual do not appear because they are preset. During the setup procedure, you must indicate that you accept the license agreement. In some instances, the Microsoft product ID will already be entered into the registration fields. If the Product ID number is not already entered, you must type the Product ID number from your Certificate of Authenticity. The Certificate of Authenticity is attached to the cover of your computer. Note: If you did not receive an operating-system manual with your computer, see the IBM Quick Reference, "Getting help, service, and additional information" chapter for information about ordering a manual. After the setup procedure is completed and the computer is restarted, the Windows desktop appears. Note: Windows NT Workstation requires that you press Ctrl+Alt+Delete to display the logon window. At your earliest opportunity, create an IBM Enhanced Diagnostics diskette. This self-starting diskette can be used to isolate problems with your computer. For information about creating a diagnostic diskette, see "Creating an IBM Enhanced Diagnostics diskette" on page 19. Information for Windows 98 SE users This information applies to some computers that come with the Windows 98 SE operating system. If a modem is installed on your computer, your computer will be connected to IBM and to Microsoft through the Internet when the setup program runs. If you choose, you can automatically transmit your registration at that time. See "Registering your IBM computer" on page 10 for more information. Information for Windows NT Workstation users Your computer hard disk comes with either one or two 2 GB partitions (depending on model) that have already been formatted. One partition, referred to as drive C, contains Windows NT Workstation and the other preinstalled software. The remaining hard-disk space has been left unformatted and cannot be used until you format and partition it as you wish. To partition your hard disk: 8 About Your Software
