your computer, you are
guided through the
registration process before
accessing the Windows

important notices about new
Microsoft products.
Registering with Compaq
enables you to receive
technical support for the

other special offers.
Any time you install new

Registering with Compaq and Microsoft
The registration screen allows you to register with Microsoft
and Compaq from the same display. When you have entered
your personal information (name, address, etc.), you can choose
to register with Microsoft or with Compaq or both.
To register the Windows operating system with Microsoft, fill in
the first check box. To register your computer with Compaq, fill
the second check box. We recommend that you check both
boxes. When you’ve filled in the necessary registration
information, click the Next button to move to the next screen.
When you have finished, you are ready to set up an account
with an Internet Service Provider (ISP). Refer to the following
page.
