Using Windows NT 4.0 Using the Docking Solutions Using the Docking Solutions This section describes how to: • Use the docking system. • Install the HP Notebook docking system support. To use the docking system Windows NT 4.0 does not support notebook docks. If you are using the Mini Dock with a PC Card in the dock or the Docking System, you must shut down before docking or undocking. You can dock or undock when the OmniBook is on, or in suspend mode when using the Port Replicator since Windows NT does not recognize it as different hardware. Note Do not suspend in Windows NT when docked. The IDE and SCSI drivers are not power management aware.
To make sure the OmniBook does not suspend do the following: • Do not press the power button for less than four seconds. • Confirm that Power management while on AC power is disabled in the BIOS. To install the HP Notebook docking system support To use the HP Notebook in the full dock, you will need to configure additional hardware profiles, install additional IDE and SCSI drivers, and then configure which drivers will be enabled in which profile. In addition, you may wish to configure two undocked profiles, one that uses networking and one that doesn’t. The HP Notebook Docking System IDE driver is located on the Recovery CD at \HP\DRIVERS\W98\DOCKING\IDE and \HP\DRIVERS\W98\DOCKING\SCSI. 1.
