2.4 Installing System Software
Recent releases of operating systems from major vendors include setup
programs which load automatically and guide you through hard disk
preparation and operating system installation. The guidelines below will
help you determine the steps necessary to install your operating system
on the panel PC hard drive.
If required, insert your operating system's installation or setup diskette
into the diskette drive until the release button pops out.
The BIOS of the panel PC supports system boot-up directly from the CD-
ROM drive. You may also insert your system installation CD-ROM into
the CD-ROM drive.
Power on your panel PC or reset the system by pressing the
"Ctrl"+"Alt"+"Del" keys simultaneously. The panel PC will automati-
cally load the operating system from the diskette or CD-ROM.
If you are presented with the opening screen of a setup or installation pro-
gram, follow the instructions on screen. The setup program will guide
you through preparation of your hard drive, and installation of the operat-
ing system.
If you are presented with an operating system command prompt, such as
A:\>, then you must partition and format your hard drive, and manually
copy the operating system files to it. Refer to your operating system user's
manual for instructions on partitioning and formatting a hard drive.
Note: Some distributors and system integrators may
have already pre-installed system software
prior to shipment of your panel PC.
