Copying to Multiple Computers
CAUTION: A setup configuration is model-specific. File system corruption may result if source and
target computers are not the same model. For example, do not copy the setup configuration from a
dc7xxx PC to a dx7xxx PC.
This method takes a little longer to prepare the configuration diskette or USB flash media device, but
copying the configuration to target computers is significantly faster.
NOTE: A bootable diskette is required for this procedure or to create a bootable USB flash media
device. If Windows XP is not available to use to create a bootable diskette, use the method for copying
to a single computer instead (see
Copying to Single Computer on page 24).
1. Create a bootable diskette or USB flash media device. See Supported USB Flash Media Device
on page 26 or Unsupported USB Flash Media Device on page 27.
CAUTION: Not all computers can be booted from a USB flash media device. If the default boot
order in the Computer Setup (F10) Utility lists the USB device before the hard drive, the computer
can be booted from a USB flash media device. Otherwise, a bootable diskette must be used.
2. Select a setup configuration to copy. Turn off the computer. If you are in Windows, click Start >
Shut Down > Shut Down.
3. If you are using a USB flash media device, insert it now.
4. Turn on the computer.
5. As soon as the computer is turned on, press F10 before the computer boots to the operating system
to enter Computer Setup. Press Enter to bypass the title screen, if necessary.
NOTE: If you do not press F10 at the appropriate time, you must restart the computer and again
press F10 before the computer boots to the operating system to access the utility.
