To update the OmniBook BIOS
Hewlett-Packard may update the BIOS to enhance the capabilities of the
OmniBook. Updates will be available from HP Electronic Support
Services at http://www.hp.com/omnibook/support/index.htm
CAUTION
Because a BIOS update replaces the previous version, it is very
important you carefully follow these instructions. Otherwise, the
OmniBook may be damaged.
The BIOS update process resets the configuration settings in the
BIOS Setup utility except for the password, date and time.
1. From the Start menu, shut down the OmniBook.
2. Undock and connect the ac adapter to the OmniBook.
3. Remove any PC Cards.
4. Insert the BIOS Update disk in the floppy disk drive.
5. Press the blue power button.
6. When prompted, choose the correct language.
7. When prompted, press C. This starts a process that takes
approximately 1 minute. Once it begins, do not interrupt the update
process.
8. When prompted, insert a paperclip into the system off button located
on the left side of the OmniBook.
