Before You Begin
Have the following items available:
u
The information you recorded in Chapter 2, “Setting Up the Software.”
u
Operating system software CD-ROM, Service Pack CD-ROM (Windows NT), associated
diskettes, and documentation. Make sure you have the Setup diskettes (Windows NT) or
the Boot diskette (Windows), as appropriate.
u
Backup diskettes you created according to instructions in Chapter 2, “Setting Up the
Software.” You can also create backup diskettes by inserting the System CD-ROM into
any computer running Windows NT, Windows 95, or Windows 98 and running InterSite
Version Manager. Create backup diskettes for the system software listed under “System
Software Products” in this chapter.
u
Backup diskettes and documentation delivered with any expansion cards or additional
peripheral devices purchased from Intergraph Computer Systems.
u
The Late-Breaking News document delivered with your system, if applicable.
You can find the system software on backup diskettes that you created, on the System CD-
ROM, on diskettes provided with the system, or on the operating system CD-ROM. If you did
not create backup diskettes of drivers or other system software products, you can create them
from the System CD-ROM as described above. System software is also probably available on
the operating system CD-ROM or on backup diskettes delivered with expansion cards.
NOTE
You must install certain drivers from backup diskettes. The correct driver versions may not be
on the operating system CD-ROM. If a driver version is delivered on backup diskette or in
Version Manager, that version should be used instead of what is available on the operating
system CD-ROM.
Driver software is routinely improved and updated. Use InterSite Version Manager, or visit the
Intergraph Computer Systems site on the World Wide Web and vendor bulletin boards for new
and updated drivers.
Review the Late-Breaking News document delivered with your system for any additional tasks
you may have to perform during reinstallation.
