Figure 2-15: battery remove button of MICA 21/41 MICA Tablet PC Users Manual 2.5 Running the BIOS Setup Program Your MICA is likely to have been properly set up and configured by your dealer prior to delivery. You may still find it necessary to use the BIOS (Basic Input -Output System) setup program to change system configuration information, such as the current date and time or your type of hard drive. The setup program is stored in read-only memory. It can be accessed either when you turn on or reset the panel PC, by pressing the " Crtl+Alt+Del " key on your keyboard immediately after powering on the computer. The settings you specify with the setup program are recorded in a special area of memory called CMOS RAM. This memory is backed up by a battery so that it will not be erased when you turn off or reset the system. Whenever you turn on the power, the system reads the settings stored in CMOS RAM and compares them to the equipment check conducted during the power on self-test (POST). If an error occurs, an error message will be displayed on screen, and you will be prompted to run the setup program. 2.6 Installing System Software Recent releases of operating systems from major vendors include setup programs which load automatically and guide you through hard disk preparation and operating system installation. The guidelines below will help you determine the steps necessary to install your operating system on the panel PC hard drive. Note Some distributors and system integrators may have already pre-installed system software prior to shipment of your panel PC. If required, insert your operating system's installation or setup diskette into the optical drive until the release button pops out. The BIOS supports system boot-up directly from the CD-ROM drive. You may also insert your system installation CD-ROM disk into the CD-ROM drive.. Power on or reset the system by pressing the "Ctrl"+"Alt"+"Del" keys simultaneously. MICA Terminal will automatically load the operating system from the diskette or CD-ROM. If you are presented with the opening screen of a setup or installation program, follow the instructions on screen. The setup program will guide you through preparation of your hard drive, and installation of the operating system. 22/41 MICA Tablet PC Users Manual 2.8 Installing the Drivers After installing your system software, you will be able to set up the Ethernet, SVGA, audio and touch screen functions. All the drivers except the CD-ROM drive driver are stored in a CD-
ROM disc entitled "Drivers and Utilities which can be found in your accessory box. The standard procedures for installing the Ethernet, SVGA, audio and touch screen drivers are described in Chapters 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7 respectively. For your reference, the directory of drivers on the "Drivers and Utilities" CD-ROM is:
