This dialog contain two checkboxes. The first checkbox is used to view the readme file. If there is no
readme file, this checkbox will be hidden.
If the HP Toptools installation wizard requires the system to be rebooted before toptools will function
correctly, the second checkbox will be used to tell the HP Toptools installation wizard not to reboot the
system until the user does so. If the HP Toptools installation wizard does not require a reboot of the
system, then the second checkbox will be used to tell the HP Toptools installation wizard to start the
toptools services.
If a reboot is required and the user decides to read the readme file, a message will be presented to the
user informing them the required reboot will not take place until after they have closed the browser
window the readme file is in. This message will not be displayed if the user has told the HP Toptools
installation wizard not to perform the required reboot until the user does so.
Step 22. Maintenance/Uninstall
The HP Toptools installation wizard offers – through InstallShield 6.2 – a maintenance mode, which
allows the user to modify the current installation of toptools. This maintenance dialog is invoked though
the Add/Remove Programs applet:
Selecting “modify” will display the component selection dialog discussed above, with those components
currently installed pre-checked. Pressing Next from the component selection dialog will install those
components selected that were not already installed, and will uninstall those deselected components that
are currently installed.
Selecting “repair” will reinstall all toptools components (including the toptools device manager) marked as
installed from the previous run of the HP Toptools installation wizard.
Selecting “remove” will uninstall all of toptools.
Selecting “check for updates” will display a dialog with available patches for installed toptools
components, or a one sentence message box that says there are no patches available
. If a connection to
the HP Toptools website cannot be established, you will be presented with a dialog that explains the
failure may be due to improperly configured network settings (if the IP pings performed during system
inspection failed), or improperly or non-configured proxy settings. The dialog will contain two buttons.
One will launch the Network Settings applet, while the other will launch the Internet Connection Wizard.
You can click Next to allow the wizard to attempt the connection again, or Cancel to exit the maintenance
dialog.
