Starting Out with Your OmniBook
Special Features

Using the Recovery CD
Your OmniBook package includes a Recovery CD ROM and a Support Utilities floppy
disk. These media have two main uses:
• Recovery . You can reinstall the Windows 95 operating system and/or original
HP software (such as the Appointment Book and the online User’s Guide). See
page 2-6.
• Installation of alternate operating systems . If you own and want to install
software for another operating system, you will also need the HP OmniBook
drivers. You can also load HP OmniBook-specific software. See page1-13.
Refer to the README text file on the Recovery CD and the Support Utilities disk for
instructions on carrying out a recovery or installation.
