System Installation Requirements

HP OmniBook 800 installed with Windows 3.1 or Windows for Workgroups

HP OmniBook 800 PCCARD Drivers.  These drivers are located on the OmniBook hard
   disk in C:\OMNIBOOK\DRIVERS\WFW\PCCARD.  These drivers are also located on
   the HP OmniBook Recovery CD in the \OmniBook\DRIVERS\WFW\PCCARD directory.

Note: If you are backing up these files to floppy disk, you will need two
      floppy disks.


Procedure

1.  From the DOS prompt or Windows File Manager create a directory called
    C:\CARDWIZ.

2.  Copy the PCCARD Drivers from C:\OMNIBOOK\DRIVERS\WFW\PCCARD\CARDWIZ or from
    your backup on floppy disk to C:\CARDWIZ.

3.  Enter the following lines into C:\CONFIG.SYS in the order shown.
    Note:  The REM lines need not be entered. They are simply for explanation
           of the driver.


REM -- OmniBook Socket Services driver required for card slot support
device=C:\CARDWIZ\SS365LP.EXE 

REM -- Card Services driver required for card slot support
devicehigh=C:\CARDWIZ\CS.EXE /POLL:1

REM -- Initial resource allocator required for card slot support
devicehigh=C:\CARDWIZ\CSALLOC.EXE

REM -- ATA card driver required for ATA cards
devicehigh=C:\CARDWIZ\ATADRV.EXE /S:2

REM -- Driver required for RAM cards
devicehigh=C:\CARDWIZ\MTSRAM.EXE

REM -- Memory card driver required for all memory cards
devicehigh=C:\CARDWIZ\MTDDRV.EXE

REM -- Card identification driver required for cards other than memory cards
devicehigh=C:\CARDWIZ\CARDID.EXE

REM -- Card Services APM support required for card slot support
install=C:\CARDWIZ\CS_APM.EXE



4.  Add the following lines to the [386Enh] section of C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM.INI.
    (The simplest method of accomplishing this is to cut and paste from the
    README.TXT file located in the C:\OMNIBOOK\DRIVERS\WFW\PCCARD directory.)

COM2Base=2F8
COM2Irq=3
COM1Base=3F8
COM1Irq=4
device=C:\CARDWIZ\SSVRDD.386
device=C:\CARDWIZ\SSVCD311.386
device=C:\CARDWIZ\PCCARD.386
EmmExclude=D000-DFFF

... and after the "FileSysChange=off"

COM3Irq=5
COM3Base=3E8
COM4Irq=9
COM4Base=2E8

... and change "device=*vcd" to ";device=*vcd"


5.  Copy CTL3DV2.DLL from C:\OMNIBOOK\DRIVERS\WFW\PCCARD\WINDOWS\SYSTEM to
    C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM.

6.  Reboot the OmniBook.



Maximizing memory for PC Cards

1.  In the default C:\CONFIG.SYS there are two emm386 lines.  The defaults are
    as follows:

device=c:\dos\emm386.exe noems x=d000-d1ff.  

(This allots 8K of memory for PC Card support. Add the REM statement to the
beginning of this line to allot 32K of memory for PC Card support.)

device=c:\dos\emm386.exe noems x=d000-d7ff.  

(This allots 32K of memory for PC Card support. Remove the REM to increase the
memory to 32K)
