The PC has four accessory board slots:
Slot 1 (the top slot) can be used for a 32-bit PCI board
Slot 2 can be used for either a 32-bit PCI or a full-length 16-bit ISA
board
• Slot 3 can be used for full-length 16-bit ISA boards
• Slot 4 (the bottom slot) can be used for half-length 16-bit ISA boards.

Configuring Accessory Boards with Plug and Play (Windows
3.11)
Plug and Play is an industry standard for automatically configuring
your PC's hardware resources and the accessory boards installed in it.
Your PC has configurable support for Plug and Play in the BIOS.
NOTE
All PCI accessory boards are Plug and Play, although not all ISA boards
are. Check the accessory board’s documentation if you are unsure.
When you start your PC, the Plug and Play BIOS automatically detects
which hardware resources (IRQs, DMAs, memory ranges, and I/O
addresses) are used by the system-based components.
Configuring non-Plug and Play ISA Accessory Boards
Windows 3.11
If you wish to install an ISA accessory board which is not Plug and Play,
for example a Legacy board, before you do so, you must start the ICU
program to declare the resources used by the board.
To run the ICU:
Choose the Plug and Play facility in the Windows Program Manager.
Click on the ICU icon to launch the ISA Configuration Utility and
configure system resources for the accessory board.
English 31

3 How to Install Accessories In Your PC
Installing Accessory Boards
The ICU is preloaded with configuration details for many non-Plug and
Play accessory boards. If your accessory board is not listed by the ICU,
there are two ways you can configure the accessory board:
1 Some non-Plug and Play accessory boards are supplied with a
configuration file which can be used by the ICU to determine which
resources are required by the board. When prompted by the ICU,
insert the diskette containing the configuration file.
2 If there is no configuration file for your accessory board, you will
need to enter the configuration details manually when prompted by
the ICU. Refer to the documentation supplied with the accessory
board for information about the resources the board requires.
Windows 95 and
Plug and Play
It is not necessary to use the ICU with Windows 95 as it has built-in Plug
and Play functionality. It works directly with the PC’s Plug and Play
BIOS to dynamically configure system resources for Plug and Play
accessories.
For boards which are not automatically recognized and configured, you
may need to run the Add New Hardware wizard to configure the
accessory. The settings selected by Windows 95 may be different from
those recommended by the board’s manufacturer. Should this be the
case, it might be necessary to alter the board’s jumpers.
Refer to the documentation supplied with Windows 95 for further
details.

Installing an Upgrade Processor
As more powerful upgrade processors become available, you can
replace your main processor with a more powerful one. If you use an
Intel Overdrive processor, it is supplied with its own Voltage Regulator
Module (VRM), which must be installed with the processor. The VRM
ensures that the processor is provided with the correct voltage.
1 Disconnect the computer power cords from the power outlets.
2 Remove the computer’s cover and lift the power supply from it’s
seating as described in “Moving and Replacing the Power Supply” on
page 24.

Recycling Your PC
Recycling Your PC
HP has a strong commitment toward the environment. Your HP
Personal Computer has been designed to respect the environment as
much as possible.
HP can also take back your old PC for recycling when it reaches the
end of its useful life.
HP has a product take-back program in several countries. The
collected equipment is sent to one of HP’s recycling facilities in Europe
or the USA. As many parts as possible are re-used. The remainder is
recycled. Special care is taken of batteries and other potentially toxic
substances, which are reduced into non-harmful elements by means of
a special chemical process.
If you require more information about HP’s product take-back program,
contact your dealer or your nearest HP Sales Office.

Your HP Authorized Reseller
Your HP Authorized Reseller
HP Authorized Resellers have been trained on HP Vectra equipment
and are familiar with its configuration and environment. Authorized
Resellers can also answer questions regarding non-HP hardware,
software and systems as well as answer queries about usage not
intended for, or not commonly used with the HP Vectra.
Authorized HP Resellers can also offer consulting services tailored to
your specific needs regarding product development or custom
installations, as will third party support services, or the HP Customer
Support organization in your country.
HP SupportPack
HP’s three-year SupportPack is available from your local reseller. It
must be purchased within 30 days of purchasing your HP Vectra.
The concept of SupportPack is simple. It allows you to extend your
one-year on-site hardware warranty to a three-year on-site hardware
warranty, offering next day on-site response.
SupportPack is valid for the piece of equipment for which it was
bought, but is not transferable from one piece of equipment to another.

HP Support Services
Hewlett-Packard provides a three year hardware warranty which
includes on-site service during the first year after purchase, and a
return service during the second and third years after purchase. This
warranty coverage will apply from the nearest HP or HP authorized
service outlet.
HP telephone support for your Vectra PC is available during the first
year of your hardware warranty. This service will also provide technical
assistance with the basic configuration and setup of your Vectra PC and
for the pre-loaded operating system.
Lifeline Telephone support is available during the second and third
years of hardware warranty, via the Lifeline program, which is a feebased service.
The HP telephone support service does NOT provide free telephone
support for PCs configured as network servers. If you do configure
your PC as a network server, you are advised to contact your HP
reseller to purchase a network phone-in support contract, which will
provide you with a fee-based telephone support service.
NOTE
Reloading the software pre-loaded on your PC is not covered by your HP
three-year warranty. HP strongly recommends that you make a set of
master diskettes of this software as soon as possible after receiving your
PC. To make the master diskettes, use the Master Diskette Creation
Utility, which can be accessed from HP Utilities.
Your HP authorized reseller offers various service contracts which can
be tailored to your particular support needs.

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part
15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in
a residential installation. This equipment generates and uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not
installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If
this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by
turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to correct the interference by one or more of the
following measures:
• reorient or relocate the receiving antenna
• increase the separation between the equipment and the receiver
• connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected
• consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

HP Hardware Warranty
Important: This is your hardware product warranty statement. Read it carefully.
Warranty terms may be different in your country. If so, your Authorized HP Dealer or
Hewlett-Packard Sales and Service Office can give you details.
Three Year Limited Hardware Warranty
Hewlett-Packard (HP) warrants this hardware product against defects in materials and workmanship for a
period of three years from receipt by the original end-user purchaser.
The three year warranty includes on-site service during the first year of use, and return service provided by an
HP Service Center or a participating Authorized HP Personal Computer Dealer Repair Center, during the second
and third years of use.
If HP receives notice of above defined defects during the warranty period, HP will either, at its option, repair or
replace products which prove to be defective.
Should HP be unable to repair or replace the product within a reasonable amount of time, the customer’s
alternate exclusive remedy shall be a refund of the purchase price upon return of the product.
Limitation of Warranty
The above warranty shall not apply to defects resulting from: misuse; unauthorized modification; operation or
storage outside the environmental specifications for the product; in-transit damage; improper maintenance; or
defects resulting from use of non-HP software, accessories, media, supplies, consumables, or such items not
designed for use with the product.
HP makes no other express warranty, whether written or oral, with respect to this product.
Any implied warranty of merchantability or fitness is limited to the three-year duration of this written warranty.
Some states or provinces do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, so the above limitation
or exclusion may not apply to you.
This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights which vary from state to state,
or province to province.
Limitation of Liability and Remedies
The remedies provided above are the customer’s sole and exclusive remedies.
In no event shall HP be liable for any direct, indirect, special, incidental, or consequential damages, whether
based on warranty, contract, tort, or any other legal theory.
The foregoing limitation of liability shall not apply in the event that any HP product sold hereunder is
determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be defective and to have directly caused bodily injury, death,
or property damage; provided, that in no event shall HP’s liability for property damage exceed the greater of
$50,000 or the purchase price of the specific product that caused such damage.
Some states or provinces do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential
damages–including lost profit–so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you.
Obtaining On-Site Warranty Service
To obtain on-site warranty service, the customer must contact an HP Sales and Service Office (in the US, call
the HP Customer Support Center at (303) 635-1000) or a participating Authorized HP Personal Computer
Dealer Repair Center and arrange for on-site repair of the product. The customer must be prepared to supply
proof of the purchase date.
This warranty is extended worldwide to products purchased from HP or an Authorized HP Personal Computer
Dealer which are reshipped by the original purchaser either for use by the original purchaser or provided as an
incidental part of systems integrated by the original purchaser. Service is provided in the same manner as if the
product was purchased in the country of use and can only be provided in countries where the product is
designed to operate. If the product is not normally sold by HP in the country of use, it must be returned to the
country of purchase for service.
The system processor unit, keyboard, mouse, and Hewlett-Packard accessories inside the system processor
unit–such as video adapters, mass storage devices, and interface controllers–are covered by this warranty.

uno.bk : bckmttr.fb4 Page 126 Monday, July 21, 1997 12:46 PM
Customer-replaceable components–such as the keyboard or mouse–may be serviced through expedited part
shipment. In this event, HP will prepay shipping charges, duty, and taxes; provide telephone assistance on
replacement of the component; and pay shipping charges, duty, and taxes for any part that HP asks to be
returned.
HP products external to the system processor unit–such as external storage subsystems, displays, printers, and
other peripherals–are covered by the applicable warranties for those products; HP software is covered by the
HP Software Product Limited Warranty.
On-site visits caused by non-Hewlett-Packard products–whether internal or external to the system processor
unit–are subject to standard per-incident travel and labor charges.
On-site service for this product is restricted or unavailable in certain locations. In HP Excluded Travel
Areas–areas where geographical obstacles, undeveloped roads, or unsuitable public transportation prohibit
routine travel–service is provided on a negotiated basis at extra charge.
Response time for HP on-site service in an HP Service Travel Area is normally next business day (excluding HP
holidays) for HP Travel Zones 1-3 (generally 100 miles or 160 Km from the HP office). Response time is second
business day for Zones 4 and 5 (200 miles, 320 Km); third business day for Zone 6 (300 miles, 480 Km); and
negotiated beyond Zone 6. Worldwide Customer Support Travel information is available from any HP Sales and
Service Office.
Travel restrictions and response time for dealer or distributor service are defined by the participating dealer or
distributor.
Service contracts which provide after-hour or weekend coverage, faster response time, or service in an
Excluded Travel Area are often available from HP, an authorized dealer, or authorized distributor at additional
charge.
Customer Responsibilities
The customer may be required to run HP-supplied diagnostic programs before an on-site visit or replacement
part will be dispatched.
The customer is responsible for the security of its proprietary and confidential information and for maintaining a
procedure external to the products for reconstruction of lost or altered files, data, or programs.
For on-site service, the customer must provide: access to the product; adequate working space and facilities
within a reasonable distance of the product; access to and use of all information and facilities determined
necessary by HP to service the product; and operating supplies and consumables such as the customer would
use during normal operation.
When service is being performed on-site, a representative of the customer must be present at all times. The
customer must state if the product is being used in an environment which poses a potential health hazard to
repair personnel; HP or the servicing dealer may require that the product be maintained by customer personnel
under direct HP or dealer supervision.
Obtaining Return Warranty Service
When return warranty service applies, the product must be returned to a service facility designated by HP.
Customer must enclose a copy of a document proving date of purchase.
The customer shall prepay shipping charges (and shall pay all duty and taxes) for products returned to HP for
warranty service. HP shall pay for return of products to the customer except for products returned to the
customer from another country.
