Using the keypad arrows, select 

Install the factory EddyOS update, keep data

7.

 

When prompted, press the up arrow of the keypad. 
The update process starts. This normally takes between 5 and 10 minutes. When the process is 
complete, the system restarts. 

8.

 

Activate Windows. 

See Activating Windows in the next section for details. 

Activating Windows 

Microsoft requires that you activate Windows to be able to use it. The activation process is 
automatic when you connect Lyft to the Internet through an Ethernet cable. To proceed : 

1.

 

Make sure that Lyft is on and that the software is running. 

2.

 

Connect an Ethernet cable to Lyft. 

3.

 

Connect the other end of your Ethernet cable to a network (local area network or other access 
point). 

4.

 

Wait until a dialog box confirming the activation of Windows appears on screen. If you do not 
activate Windows, every time you start Lyft, a message will remind you to do so. You have 30 
days to activate Windows before it locks up. 

Known Issue With System Updates/Upgrades 

On some units, a blue Windows error screen may appear when you attempt to enter the system 
recovery, which can cause the unit to start normally. Try performing the update procedure again.
