Armada Family Software Overview 21
13L3-0201C-WWEN
Where can I learn more if I want to install the OS and all of the Compaq
software myself?
The Installing Microsoft Windows on Compaq Armada EM & V Products white papers will
describe the steps required to install the supported Microsoft operating systems.
Will this image change significantly if new E500, M700, and M300
computers are introduced?
The goal for our classic line of Armada products is to provide as much stability as possible.
Changes made to the preinstall images will be limited to those that will support new hardware
features or significantly improve overall performance.
Why aren’t pointing device drivers being preinstalled?
Pointing device drivers are hardware specific and do not work well in a common environment.
The pointing device drivers that are native to Windows provide all of the required basic features.
How will I know what has changed?
Updated Armada Family Software white papers will describe any updates or differences in
software versions that are introduced with new products.
Can I use these same software components on my Armada 7800 (or any
previous Armada families)?
While some software will be backward compatible with previous Armada families, most software
is not, due to the architectural changes made to the current line of products.
