Setting up Windows
If a system is restored using the factory-default generic disk image or otherwise has the Windows operating system re-applied, a Windows set up process is required.
-
Upon first startup after reimage, a Windows Setup Wizard
automatically opens. Work through the wizard as follows:
- Enter in the Windows Product Key and click Next. The Product Key is on a sticker on the top of the machine near the front right corner.
- Enter the name of the machine. To restore the factory-default name, enter the Serial Number (located at the right side and rear). The password is pre-set to the factory default. Leave the password as is.
- Click Next.
- Set Time and click Next.
- Upon restart, log in to Windows.
- Rename the machine and set Windows clock as necessary.
