Configuring the System 3-31
5.
The Partition Information screen that appears in Windows 95 or
Windows 98 has three options (Back, FAT 16, and FAT 32) and lets
you select the File Allocation Table (FAT) type you want to use for
the operating system restore:
!
Click
Back
to return to the Operating Mode screen.
!
Click
FAT 16
to select the FAT16 allocation table (current FAT
type).
!
Click
FAT 32
to select the FAT32 allocation table (Windows 95
and Windows 98 only).
Some older software may not work in a Windows 95 or Windows 98
system configured for FAT 32.
In Windows NT 4.0 systems, the Partition Information screen does
not appear. Instead, the FAT16 Partition warning appears. This
screen is described in the following paragraph.
6.
After you select the FAT type, a warning screen appears indicating
that the system is about to partition and format your hard drive using
the FDISK program. This warning screen contains three options:
Back, Exit, and Continue.
!
Click
Back
to return to the Partition Information screen.
!
Click
Exit
to terminate the restore process.
!
Click
Continue
to perform FDISK.

If you click Continue, the system performs FDISK using the FAT
type you selected and reboots the system. After the reboot, all
partitions are formatted. When all the partitions have been formatted,
the OS loads from the CD. The Installing Applications screen
appears. This screen also displays the version of Windows OS being
installed.
The drivers and other software components required for the operating
system are also loaded from the CD.
After the OS finishes loading, the “Operating System Restore
Completed” screen appears.
