3.4.10 World Wide Web Site
Compaq engineers rigorously test and debug software developed by Compaq and third-party
suppliers, and develop operating-system specific support software, to ensure the highest level of
performance, compatibility, and reliability for Compaq personal computers.
When making the transition to new or revised operating systems, it is important to implement the
support software designed for that operating system. If you plan to run a version of Microsoft
Windows or Microsoft Windows NT Workstation that is different from the version included with
your computer you must install corresponding Compaq device drivers and utilities to ensure all
features are supported and functioning properly.
Compaq has made the task of locating, accessing, evaluating, and installing the latest support
software easier. You can download the software from the Compaq World Wide Web site at
www.compaq.com.
The Web site contains the latest device drivers, utilities, and flashable ROM images needed to run
Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows 2000, and Windows NT Workstation on your Compaq
computer.
