Software Setup

Installing the Operating System

ÄCAUTION: Do not add optional hardware devices or third-party devices

to your computer until the operating system is successfully installed. Doing

so may cause errors and may prevent the operating system from installing

properly.

The first time you turn on your computer, you may be prompted to

select a language for your operating system (OS) and then you will be

asked to install your OS. You must install the OS completely. Read

and follow the instructions on the screen to complete the installation

of the OS.

If electing to use an OS different than what was shipped with your

system, refer to the following support Web site location for additional

support that may be available:

http://www.compaq.com/support/workstations/index.html

ÄCAUTION: During the OS installation process, do not turn off your

computer unless you are directed to do so.

HP is committed to designing products, services, and programs with

improved usability and accessibility for all customers. HP products

with Microsoft Windows XP preinstalled, or that are XP Ready, are

designed for accessibility. These products are tested with

industry-leading Assistive Technology products to ensure equal

access—anytime, anywhere... to anyone.

1–2 Getting Started

Software Setup

File System Format

✎Depending on your system, you may be prompted to select a file

system format during the initial setup of your system.

Hard drives can be configured in three basic formats: FAT16 and

FAT32 (for HDD partitions less than 8 GB), or NTFS (for HDD

partitions up to and greater than 8 GB), with variances of each,

depending on the operating system and hard drive support. To check

the file system format assigned to your hard drive (factory settings),

open My Computer, right-click on Local Disk (C:), then select

Properties.

✎Microsoft Windows 98 supports the FAT32 file system format only.

Converting to NTFS

NTFS offers the following features:

■Transaction logs

■Access control

Transaction Logs

Transaction logs help recover from disk failures.

Access Control

Access Control allows you to set permissions to control access to

your files and directories.

Depending on which file system format your hard drive is using, the

NTFS Convert utility may be available for you to convert part or all

of the drive partition to NTFS format.

ÄCAUTION: You may experience data loss if you attempt to convert your

drive to NTFS using the methods described in this section. Before

converting your drive, make a backup copy of all data stored on your

hard drive.

Getting Started 1–3

Software Setup

NTFS Convert Desktop Icon

Double-click the NTFS Convert icon located on the desktop. Read

and follow the instructions that appear on the screen to change the

drive partitioning. This feature is available on select models only.

Installing or Upgrading Device Drivers

To install optional hardware devices after the OS installation is

complete, you must install the device drivers for the devices you are

installing.

If prompted for the I386 directory, replace the path specification with

C:\I386, or use the Browse button of the dialog box to locate the

I386 folder. This action points the OS to the appropriate drivers.

✎You can obtain the latest support software, including support software

for your OS from:

http://www.compaq.com/support

You can also obtain the latest support software through a subscription

to the Compaq Support CD Kit using the Support Software

Management order form available at the following Web site:

http://www.compaq.com/support/files/workstations/us/

purchase.html

This site also provides information on how to purchase a subscription.

✎If your system has an optical RW drive, you must install the

appropriate application to be able to write to the drive. To install the

drivers, double-click the Setup Software icon on the desktop or the

application launcher and select the Easy CD Creator and Direct CD

option when prompted.

1–4 Getting Started

Software Setup

Customizing the Monitor Display

To change the default configuration settings for your monitor display,

such as the screen resolution, color settings, and font sizes,

double-click the Display icon in the Control Panel. For more

information about your display driver and other utilities that you can

use with your graphics controller, refer to your graphics controller

documentation.

✎You can obtain the latest graphics drivers from

http://www.compaq.com/support.

Turning Off Your Computer

To properly turn off your computer, click Shut Down on the Start

menu. In Windows XP, select Turn Off Computer on the Start menu.

The computer will automatically shut down.

In Windows NT Workstation 4.0, the power button always functions

as a power switch. However, in the default configuration of

Windows 98, Windows 2000 Professional, Windows XP Professional

or Windows XP Home, pressing the power button does not turn off

the power, but causes the computer to enter a low-power state. This

default configuration allows you to quickly power down, without

closing applications, and to quickly return to the same operational

state without any data loss.

✎To manually force the computer into an OFF state, press and hold the

power button for four seconds.

ÄCAUTION: Manually forcing the computer off can cause loss of data.

✎To reconfigure the power button to work in On/Off mode for

Windows 98, Windows 2000 Professional, Windows XP Professional,

or Windows XP Home, refer to the Desktop Management Guide for

detailed instructions.

from the CD. Read and follow the prompts to complete the

installation.

The menu and books are displayed in the language chosen during

initial system setup or specified later in your Windows Regional

Settings. If the Regional Settings do not match one of the

languages supported on the CD, the menu and books are

displayed in English.
