8.6 Installing the Operating System Windows NT
Installation of the Recovery CD in Microsoft Windows NT
This CD contains encoded data which can only be transferred onto a
SIEMENS SIMATIC programming device.
Data transfer is carried out with the OEMSETUP.EXE program on the CD-ROM or,
after booting, from the CD-ROM with the Recovery function.
After transferring the required data to the hard disk, the operating system can be
installed using the Windows NT setup program.
Windows NT Installation Sequence
If a Windows operating system is already installed or if the PC has been started
with a user created bootdisk, the transfer of the data takes place using the
program OEMSETUP.EXE. To do this, start the program OEMSETUP.EXE on the
recovery CD and continue the sequence as of point 5.
If there is no operating system installed, then please do the following:
1. Insert the Recovery CD and reboot the system.
2. To boot from the CD proceed as follows: When the message
Press <F2> to enter Setup
appears on the screen press the ESC key. After intialization a boot menu to select
the boot options is displayed.
3. Select ”ATAPI CD-ROM Drive”.
4. When “Microsoft Windows 98-Startup Menu” is displayed, select
“1. Boot for CD-Recovery”.
5. You have to acknowledge the “SIEMENS End User License Agreement” with
the F8 function key. Pressing ESC allows you to decline the agreement and
cancels the installation.
6. In the next screens you can select the components which are to be copied from
the CD to the hard disk. Transfer of at least the folder “I386” is necessary for
the Windows NT installation or setup.
7. Select the drive for data transfer. You can use the selected drive as the
installation drive for Windows. For the Windows setup, you need an available
disk space of approximately 300 MB on the installation drive for Windows.
Caution
By default, drive C: is used for the data transfer (Recovery).
Ensure that there is an available disk space of approximately 300 MB left on drive
C: after the selected recovery data have been copied.
