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:
• The process of installing a new operating system deletes all the data on your hard disk drive or solid-state
drive, including the data that were stored in a hidden folder.
• If your computer is equipped with both a hard disk drive and an M.2 solid-state drive, do not use the
M.2 solid-state drive as a bootable device. The M.2 solid-state drive is used for “cache” function and to
support the Intel Rapid Start Technology.
To install the Windows 7 operating system, do the following:
1. Copy all the subdirectories and files in the
C:\SWTOOLS
directory to a removable storage device.
• The supplement files for the Windows 7 operating system are in the
C:\SWTOOLS\OSFIXES
directory.
• The device drivers are in the
C:\SWTOOLS\DRIVERS
directory.
• The preinstalled programs are in the
C:\SWTOOLS\APPS
directory.
2. Start the ThinkPad Setup program. See “Using the ThinkPad Setup program” on page 107.
3. 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
.
4. Press the Fn+F10 key to exit the ThinkPad Setup program.
5. Insert the Windows 7 operating system installation DVD into the optical drive, and restart the computer.
6. Restore the
C:\SWTOOLS
directory that you backed up before installing the Windows 7 operating system.
7. Install the device drivers. See “Installing device drivers” on page 107.
8. Install the Windows 7 fix modules. You can find the Windows 7 fix modules in the
