BIOS Guide

A guide to your LifeBook notebook’s BIOS is available
online. Please visit our service and support Web site at

www.fujitsupc.com/support

. Once there, select Support,

then select Notebooks under User’s Guides. Select Life-
Book BIOS Guides from the pull-down menu for your

BOOTING THE SYSTEM

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

When you turn on your LifeBook notebook for the first
time, it will display a Fujitsu logo on the screen. If you
do nothing, the system will load the operating system,
and then the Windows Welcome will begin.

Designed to accommodate the needs of users in many
different countries, Windows needs to be configured the
first time you use it. Windows 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 notebook
will be prepared to dial out.

■

Registration: Easy online registration for Windows
with Microsoft, and for your LifeBook notebook with
Fujitsu.

■

Windows License Agreement and Final Settings:
You have the opportunity to review the Windows.

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 note-
book. For the modem settings, enter your current loca-
tion information where you will be using your LifeBook
notebook. 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 set up your notebook to dial out,
Windows will make a free telephone call which will test
these settings. If the call is unsuccessful, 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 Service and Support. (See Fujitsu 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 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

Next

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

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 to Windows or to shut
down your LifeBook notebook.
