Chapter 6. Advanced configuration

This chapter provides information to help you further configure the computer:

Installing a new operating system

In some situations, you might need to install a new operating system. This topic provides instructions on how 
to install a new operating system.

Installing the Windows 7 operating system

Before you start, print these instructions.

Attention: 

•  It is recommended that you update your operating system through official channels. Any unofficial update 

might cause security risks.

•  The process of installing a new operating system deletes all the data on your internal storage drive, 

including the data that were stored in a hidden folder.

To install the Windows 7 operating system, do the following: 

1.  Ensure that you set the security chip to correct value: 

•  Windows 7 (32-bit) operating system: TPM 1.2

•  Windows 7 (64-bit) operating system in Legacy mode: TPM 1.2

•  Windows 7 (64-bit) operating system in UEFI mode: TPM 2.0

For more information, see “Setting the security chip” on page 61.

2.  Copy all the subfolders and files at 

C:\SWTOOLS 

to a removable storage device. 

•  The supplement files for the Windows 7 operating system are at 

C:\SWTOOLS\OSFIXES

.

•  The device drivers are at 

C:\SWTOOLS\DRIVERS

.

•  The preinstalled programs are at 

C:\SWTOOLS\APPS

.

3.  Start the ThinkPad Setup program.

4.  Select 

Startup 

➙ 

Boot 

to display the 

Boot Priority Order 

submenu.

5.  Select the drive that contains the operating system installation program, for example, 

USB HDD

. Then 

press Esc.

6.  Select 

Startup 

➙ 

UEFI/Legacy Boot

. Then do one of the following: 

•  To install the Windows 7 (32-bit) operating system, select 

Legacy Only 

or 

Both

.

•  To install the Windows 7 (64-bit) operating system in Legacy mode, select 

Legacy Only

.

•  To install the Windows 7 (64-bit) operating system in UEFI mode, select 

UEFI Only

.

Notes: 

•  For computers with a non-volatile memory (NVM) Express drive, you can install the Windows 7 

operating system onto the drive only in UEFI mode. In this case, ensure that you always select 

UEFI 

Only

.

•  TPM 2.0 is supported only on the Windows 7 (64-bit) operation system in UEFI mode. If you install the 

Windows 7 (64-bit) operating system in Legacy mode, ensure that you set the security chip to TPM 
1.2.
