Preinstalled Operating Systems and Software
Either Microsoft Windows 95, Microsoft Windows 98, or
Microsoft Windows NT Workstation is preinstalled on the
computer.
Compaq has enhanced the preinstalled operating systems on the
computer to provide you with additional software features and
increased computer functionality.
Before deleting the operating system preinstalled on the computer,
please read the following Caution:
CAUTION:
■
Replacing the preinstalled Windows 95, Windows 98, or Windows
NT operating system with a retail version will result in the loss of
all Compaq enhancements.
■
Most preinstalled reference files, such as Help files, are available
only through the Windows 95 or Windows NT interface. If
Windows 95, Windows 98, or Windows NT is removed from the
computer, these reference files will become unavailable.
■
Complete USB support is available only through Windows 95 and
Windows 98. Installing an operating system other than Windows
95 or Windows 98 may result in a loss of USB functionality.
In addition to the operating system, Compaq installs other
software to provide additional functionality or enhancements. If it
is necessary to reinstall the operating system and you do not want
to lose these enhancements, it will also be necessary to reinstall all
Compaq software for your computer. Refer to the Compaq
Internet site (www.compaq.com) or contact Compaq customer
support for more information on this additional software and the
various tools available to help reinstall.
