DC Power Source
Inspect the fuse in the DC power cable. If the fuse is blown, replace it
with an equivalent value. If fuses are blown repeatedly, the computer or
pre-regulator should be serviced.
6.3.6 I/O Ports
Verify that the BIOS setup for I/O is correct (see “Typical Resource Alloca-
tion For Windows 98” on page 40).
Make sure that the PCMCIA card and the I/O are not conflicting.
6.4 D: Install Partition
The files on the D: partition can be used to restore a corrupted operating system or
C: drive without using any external storage devices. Keep in mind, however, that an
external keyboard is required.
This procedure will only restore the C: drive to factory software; it will not restore
data or reload client applications.
Boot the unit into safe mode by pressing <F8> before Windows boots.
Select command prompt only.
Type d: to switch to the D drive.
Type Format C: to erase the entire contents of the C drive.
Once the drive has been formatted, type “cd win98” to switch to the Win98
directory.
Follow Microsoft help to install Microsoft Windows 98.
Once Win98 is installed, the PCI, radio and touch screen drivers will need to be
installed. “Software Loading/Installation Procedure” on page 77 describes the steps
you must follow to complete this task.
