Windows NT Installation QuickGuide for the Compaq LTE 5000

Print these instructions before beginning the installation.

Following are three options for installing Windows NT 3.51 on an
LTE 5000 notebook computer. Although you can use any of these options,
depending on the hardware you have, it is recommended that you use
Option B, which considerably simplifies the installation process
through the use of a Multibay Expansion Base.

NOTE:  To enable CD ROM support for Windows NT on an LTE 5000, either
have the CD drive be physically present in the machine during
installation, or see POST INSTALLATION STEPS below.

OPTION A
Diskette version 3.51 for an LTE 5000 with a Multibay Expansion Base
1. Mount a 3.5" diskette drive in the computerÆs Multibay or in Multibay II.
2. Insert the Setup Boot Disk in the 3.5" diskette drive.
3. Press <Ctrl-Alt-Del> to reboot.
4. Press <Enter> for all remaining DOS-mode prompts.  When in doubt,
   use MicrosoftÆs printed instructions.  There is a configuration
   checklist at the end of this QuickGuide.

OPTION B
CD version 3.51 for an LTE 5000 with a Multibay Expansion Base
1. Mount a 3.5" diskette drive in the computerÆs Multibay or in Multibay II.
2. Mount a CD-ROM drive in Multibay I.
3. Insert the Setup Boot Disk in the 3.5" diskette drive.
4. Insert the CD in the CD-ROM drive.
5. Press <Ctrl-Alt-Del> to reboot.
6. Press <Enter> for all remaining DOS-mode prompts.  When in doubt,
use MicrosoftÆs printed instructions.  There is a configuration
checklist at the end of this QuickGuide.

OPTION C
CD version 3.51 for an LTE 5000 without a Multibay Expansion Base
1. Mount a 3.5" diskette drive in the computerÆs Multibay.
2. Install DOS 6.2 with CD-ROM device driver support.
3. Using C:\DOS\FDISK.EXE, create two partitions on the hard drive.
   Drive D will hold the installation files, while drive C (about 200 MB)
   will be the destination for the operating system.
4. Turn off the computer.
5. Remove the 3.5" diskette drive.
6. Mount the CD-ROM drive in the computerÆs Multibay.
7. Turn on the computer.
8. Insert the Windows NT installation CD.
9. At the C:\ prompt, type D: <Enter>.
10. Transfer the installation files to the hard drive by typing
    xcopy E:\*.* /S /E <Enter> (where E: is the CD-ROM drive letter).
11. After the installation files have been copied (about an hour) turn
    off the computer.
12. Turn the computer back on.
13. At the C:\ prompt, type D: <Enter>.
14. At the D:\ prompt, type cd\I386 <Enter>.
15. Type winnt /b <Enter>.
16. Respond to the on-screen question that follows by pressing <Enter>,
    since the NT files are located within the default entry shown (D:\I386).
    Windows NT will then be installed from the hard drive.

Simply press <Enter> for all remaining DOS-mode prompts.  When in doubt,
