Please visit our service and support Web site at

BOOTING THE SYSTEM
WITH WINDOWS 98 SECOND EDITION

We strongly recommend that you do not attach any
external devices and do not put a DVD/CD or floppy
disk in any drive until you have gone through the initial
power on sequence.

When you turn on your LifeBook for the first time,
it will display a Fujitsu logo on the screen. If you do
nothing the system will read the hard drive for the
operating system software, flash the LifeBook configura-
tion information on the screen, and then the Windows
98 Second Edition Welcome will begin.

Designed to accommodate the needs of users in many
different countries, Windows 98 Second Edition needs
to be configured the first time you use it. Windows 98
Second Edition has three parts:

■

Getting Started

: You have the opportunity to enter

custom information for your configuration file and
setup your modem so that your LifeBook will be
prepared to dial out.

■

Registration

: Easy online registration for Windows

98 with Microsoft, and for your LifeBook with Fujitsu
PC Corporation.

■

Windows License Agreement and Final Settings

You have the opportunity to review the Windows 98
Second Edition License Agreement and then your
configuration file will be generated.

Getting Started

Read the instructions on the screens carefully and fill
in the information as directed. You will be asked for such
items as the language you wish to use, the country in
which you live, your first and last name, and about
how you dial out from where you will be using your Life-

Book. For the modem settings, enter your current loca-
tion information where you will be using your
LifeBook. If you are not connected to a phone line
and plan to register at a later time, you may click the

Skip

button, and you will go directly to the Condition

of Use page.

Once you have setup your LifeBook to dial out,
Windows 98 Second Edition will make a free telephone
call which will test these settings. If the call is unsuc-
cessful, you will be returned to the phone settings page
where you may try to fix them. If you are unable to fix
the settings, please contact Fujitsu PC Service and
Support. (See Fujitsu PC Contact Information on page 3
for more information) If you would simply like to move
on, and register at a later time, you may click the

Skip

button, and you will go directly to the Condition of Use
page.

Registration

If your connection is successful, you will go to the
Registration Confirmation page. On this page simply
enter the requested information, and then check the
box at the bottom to register your copy of Windows 98
Second Edition with Microsoft. Once you have finished,
click the

Next

button to continue.

You will then go through the Fujitsu registration process.
Follow the instructions on the screens, and enter all of
the necessary information. Be as specific as possible so
that if you need help the service and support team will
be able to serve you better.

Final Settings

The first part of your final settings is the Windows End
User License Agreement. Read the agreement carefully.
When you finish reading you must accept or reject the
terms of the agreement and then click on the

Finish

button.

P O I N T

If your data security settings require it, you may be
asked for a password before the BIOS main menu
will appear.

P O I N T

You may click Cancel at any time within this process to
shutdown Windows 98 Second Edition. You may restart
this process at any time in the future, but you must
complete it in order to use your computer.

P O I N T

If you do not register at this time you can do it later
simply by double-clicking on the LifeBook Registration
icon on your desktop and following the instructions.

P O I N T

If you reject the terms of the license agreement you
will be asked to review the license agreement for
information on returning Windows 98 Second Edition
or to shut down you LifeBook.
