Installing other operating systems
Your computer comes with Microsoft Windows 2000 or Microsoft Windows XP
preinstalled.
To install another operating system, follow the instructions in the documentation
provided with the operating system and any updates. Then, follow the instructions in
the README file on the
Device Driver and IBM Enhanced Diagnostics
CD to install
the support software.
Note:
If you install another operating system, you might need additional software or
device drivers. Hardware-specific support software is available on the
Device
Driver and IBM Enhanced Diagnostics
CD. If you experience problems with
the device drivers installed from this CD, you can obtain the latest device
drivers at http://www.ibm.com/pc/support/ on the World Wide Web.
Before installing any operating system, be sure you obtain the latest updates.
Contact the operating system manufacturer or, if applicable, check the
manufacturer’s World Wide Web site to obtain the updates.
Additional information about operating systems is posted periodically at
http://www.ibm.com/pc/support/ on the World Wide Web.
Product Recovery Program
The Product Recovery Program reinstalls your computer operating system and
preinstalled software. It is on the hidden partition on the hard disk. The Product
Recovery Program runs independently of the operating system.
If you are using FDISK, Disk Management, or another utility to reformat the hard
disk drive, you might see the partition where the Product Recovery Program is
stored. Do not delete this partition or the Product Recovery Program will be lost.
If your hard disk drive, including the partition where the Product Recovery Program
resides, becomes damaged or you replace the hard disk drive, contact IBM to order
the I
BM Product Recovery
CD to recover your preinstalled operating system,
application programs and device drivers. See “Getting information, help, and
service” on page 112 for details.
