BOOTING THE SYSTEM WITH
WINDOWS 98 SECOND EDITION
We strongly recommend that you do 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 LifeBook 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 LifeBook notebook
configuration information on the screen, and then the
Windows 98 Second Edition Welcome will begin.
Designed to accommodate the needs of users in many
different countries, Windows 98 Second Edition needs
to be configured the first time you use it. Windows 98
Second Edition has three parts:
■
Getting Started: You have the opportunity to enter
custom information for your configuration file and
setup your modem so that your LifeBook notebook
will be prepared to dial out.
■
Registration: Easy online registration for Windows
98 Second Edition with Microsoft, and for your Life-
Book notebook with Fujitsu PC Corporation.
■
Windows License Agreement and Final Settings:
You have the opportunity to review the Windows 98
Second Edition 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
LifeBook 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 set up your notebook to dial out,
Windows 98 Second Edition will make a free telephone
call which will test these settings. If the call is unsuc-
cessful, 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 Corporation Contact Informa-
tion on page 1 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
Second Edition with Microsoft. Once you have finished,
click the Next button to continue.
You will then go through the Fujitsu registration process.
Follow the instructions on the screens, and enter all of
the necessary information. Be as specific as possible so
that if you need help the service and support team will
be able to serve you better.
Final Settings
The first part of your final settings is the Windows End
User License Agreement. Read the agreement carefully.
When you finish reading you must accept or reject the
terms of the agreement and then click on the Next button.
POINT
If your data security settings require it, you may be
asked for a password before the BIOS main menu
will appear.
POINT
You may click Cancel at any time within this process to
shutdown Windows 98
Second Edition. You may
restart this process at any time in the future, but you
must complete it in order to use your computer.
POINT
If you do not register at this time you can do it later
simply by double-clicking on the LifeBook Registration
icon on your desktop and following the instructions.
POINT
If you reject the terms of the license agreement you
will be asked to review the license agreement for
information on returning to Windows 98 or to shut
down your LifeBook notebook.
