* have the laptop imaged by eHealth
* need to ask Digital Health to make them since default rights don't allow making directories on C:\
** make sure you tell them to include the Novell Client if the laptop site uses it (or if the site is yet to be determined)
** C:\ccmdb_data
** tell eHealth the location if known so the right tree can be chosen during image install
** C:\ccmdb_data\ccmdb_batches
** C:\ccmdb_program


=== BIOS ===
=== Portion with collector logged in ===
* (if available) in BIOS, to save power:
Collector or someone in OU DAT_REGION_ICU_DATA_COLLECTION needs to be logged in for this.
** disable wireless in non-wireless locations

=== With Any Internet Connection ===
* run [[Regional Server]]\maintenance\[[Desktop_install.bat]]
* Install driver updates from HP
** CCDMB
** specifically, the slide pad drivers on the image don't seem to work
*** if it doesn't install [[CCMDB.accdb]] - follow [[Copying down a clean version of CCMDB.accdb]]
* Windows Update
**** which automates copying ccmdb_data.mdb from [[Regional Server]]\data\master to c:\ccmdb_data
* Firefox (less buggy for wiki editing)
** ccmdb_data
*** restore the collector's data - ideally this will have been backed up and restored from the old laptop
**** if not, do a [[CCMDB data.mdb restore from Regional Server]]
*** if this is a brand new laptop that doesn't replace an old one, copy the newest version from [[Regional Server]]\data\master and rename it to get rid of the version portion of the name


=== On WRHA Network ===
* [[News and Backup]]
* add all local users as admins (must be plugged into network for this)
** ideally the file was recovered from the old laptop and restored
* Copy contents of [[Regional Server]]\maintenance\Laptop Files to C:\
*** if the file wasn't recovered, see [[News_and_backup#Setting_up_the_file_on_a_laptop]]
** this includes
*** empty ccmdb_programs and ccmdb_data directories
*** batches directory with files for [["News and backup" batch file#Setting up the file on a laptop | "News and backup"]] and '''Microsoft_access_macro_security_low.bat'''
*** documents and settings\all users\desktop with following shortcuts:
**** CCMDB wiki (i.e. to http:///ltc.umanitoba.ca/ccmdb/) recent changes
**** [[Regional Server]]
**** Wikipedia
**** hours template shortcut
**** SD Card
**** Output Folder
**** ccmdb programs shortcut
*** documents and settings\all users\start menu\programs\startup with following file:
