Running the Windows 98 setup program
If the setup program has not already been run, it will appear when you
start the computer. The program will prompt you to make choices or type
information as required. If you need more detailed information than is
provided in the following notes, see your Windows 98 manual.
Notes:
1. During the setup procedure, you must indicate that you accept the
Windows 98 license agreement and, when prompted, type the Product
ID number from your Certificate of Authenticity. The Certificate of
Authenticity is attached to the front cover of your Windows 98 manual.
2. After the setup procedure is completed and the computer is restarted,
the Windows 98 desktop appears with the Welcome to Windows 98
window open. This window contains five options:
Register Now: Click on this option if you want to register your
Windows 98 software with Microsoft. (You must have a modem
installed to do this.)
Connect to the Internet: Click this option if you want to set up an
Internet connection.
Discover Windows 98: Click this option to access information on
the following:
– Computer Essentials
– Windows 98 Overview
– What's New
– More Windows 98 Resources
Maintain Your Computer: Click this option if you want to adjust
the settings of your computer for optimum performance or set up a
maintenance schedule for your computer.
3. At your earliest opportunity, create the IBM Enhanced Diagnostic
diskette. This self-starting, diagnostic diskette can be used to isolate
problems with your computer. See Chapter 4, “Troubleshooting and
recovery” on page 13 to learn more about running the IBM Enhanced
Diagnostics program. See the PC 300GL User Guide for instructions on
creating the diskette.
