Booting the System
We strongly recommend that you not attach any external devices and do not put a DVD/CD in your 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 load the operating system, and then the Windows Welcome will begin.
Starting Windows the First Time
After you boot up the system the first time and follow the instructions on the screen, you will eventually
come to the Welcome window. After the Welcome window appears, the screen will black out for
up to
several minutes
. This is normal.
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO POWER DOWN THE SYSTEM AT
THIS POINT.
While the screen is blacked out, your system configuration is being set up and the
necessary files are being installed.
During the course of the first start up, you will need to read and accept the End User License Agreements
