How To Install Microsoft Windows 2000
1. With the primary hard drive installed in the VX5, insert a bootable Compact Flash or
PCMCIA ATA drive into the secondary IDE slot. This drive should contain the ghost image
and the Norton Ghost utility 2002 or newer.
2. Boot the VX5 and enter the BIOS by pressing F2.
Note: Refer to “BIOS Setup” earlier in this chapter for more information on the BIOS
changes made during this process.
3. Select Advanced | I/O Device Configuration and ensure that the Local Bus Adapter is set to
“Both”.
4. Press <Esc> to return to the main menu.
5. Select Boot | Boot Device Priority and make sure the Secondary IDE device is first in the
boot order.
• Press <Enter> while “Hard Drive” is highlighted to expand the listing
• Highlight the Secondary IDE device in the listing and press <2nd> <+> until it is
listed before the Primary hard drive.
6. Save any changes made and allow the VX5 to boot.
7. Follow the instructions for the version of Ghost you are using to copy the ghost image from
the Secondary IDE to the Primary IDE drive.
8. Once the image has been copied, power the VX5 down and remove the secondary drive.
9. Restart the VX5 and edit the BIOS to return the Primary IDE to the top of the boot order.
10. Save the change and reboot the VX5.
11. After the VX5 boots, verify that the image has been transferred and the unit is operating
correctly.
Note: You may wish to review the “Microsoft Windows Setup and Configuration” section,
earlier in this chapter, to set up Windows as desired.
