To register your OmniBook

After you have set up Windows, be sure to register your OmniBook. Registering is
free and fast, and it insures you will be promptly informed about new product
information, product support, enhancements, and add-ons. The information that
you provide during registration will be used by Hewlett-Packard and Microsoft to
provide you better products and services.

There are three ways to register:

by modem

by phone

by fax

By modem

If you have Windows 98, you are prompted automatically to register. To register by
modem, make sure that you have connected the phone line, then follow the
onscreen instructions.

If you have Windows 95 or Windows NT 4.0, you are not prompted to register, but
you can register by modem if you double click the HP OmniBook Registration icon
on the desktop. See that the phone line is connected, and follow the onscreen
instructions.

If you choose not to register right away, you can register by modem later by double-
clicking the Registration icon on the desktop. This icon disappears after you register.

By phone

You can call your HP Customer Care Center and register by phone. See “Customer
Care Centers” on page 59 for phone numbers.

By fax

If a printer is connected to your computer, you can print a copy of your registration
and register by fax. You will find the fax number on the registration form.

Hint

Be sure to provide a Personal Identifier during registration, such as your mother’s
maiden name or any other short set of characters that you always remember.
Whenever you call for service, this information allows us to authenticate you as the
owner of this notebook.
