Collector or someone in OU DAT_REGION_ICU_DATA_COLLECTION needs to be logged in for this.  
Any new laptop needs to be image by eHealth.  


Send an email to the service desk with the following info:
* run [[Regional Server]]\maintenance\[[Desktop_install.bat]]
* '''Novell ''' - '''''Don't''''' include the client even for sites that use it, these laptops will just log into AD since that's all that's needed to access the regional server
** CCDMB
* '''Pointsec''' - laptops use a '''different version''' than standard (in Start Menu/Checkpoint)
*** if it doesn't install [[CCMDB.accdb]] - follow [[Copying down a clean version of CCMDB.accdb]]
* '''MS Access''' - this is no longer part of the standard image so it needs to be requested (or you'll have to add it later, see instructions below)
**** which automates copying ccmdb_data.mdb from [[Regional Server]]\data\master to c:\ccmdb_data
* '''admin rights''' - for Tina Tenbergen, Linda Hathout and Kym Morris
** ccmdb_data
* '''wireless networking''' - the laptop needs to be added to a group to make this work
*** restore the collector's data - ideally this will have been backed up and restored from the old laptop
*'''local printer''' - ehealth to set up if know destination of laptop
**** if not, do a [[CCMDB data.mdb restore from Regional Server]]
* '''[[RIS/PACS]]''' - install
*** 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


=== BIOS Settings ===
* [[News and Backup]]
Change BIOS settings to save power (if settings are available)
** ideally the file was recovered from the old laptop and restored
* disable wireless in locations that don't use wireless
*** if the file wasn't recovered, see [[News_and_backup#Setting_up_the_file_on_a_laptop]]
** as of 2011-02-02 only STB and VIC use wireless
* disable bluetooth


=== With Any Internet Connection ===
== Testing ==
* Windows Update
* [[printer]]
* Firefox (less buggy for wiki editing) [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/new/ http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/new/]
* [[News and backup | test news and backup]]
**Allow Firefox to open and '''import explore settings'''
** if problem confirm/change location settings
* Install MS Access '''2003''' (ie not new version)
*** right-click edit the icon, make sure line starting with ''set ml='' has the correct location in it
** Add/Remove programs, MS Office, Change, make sure Access checkbox is checked
* CCMDB
* clean up Startup menu in Start Menu, Programs (remove programs we don't use - should be empty except ST B who need Citrix)

If the laptop is net new (ie not a replacement) the following pages might be relevant:  
** looking into assigning the rights to a group instead (DAT_REGION_ICU_DATA_COLLECTION) [[User:Ttenbergen|Ttenbergen]] 12:31, 21 July 2011 (CDT)
* [[Network hubs]]
* Run batch job [[Regional Server]]\maintenance\[[laptop files copier.bat]] to copy contents of [[Regional Server]]\maintenance\Laptop Files to C:\ and also gets the newest ccmdb.mdb) including:
** empty ccmdb_programs and ccmdb_data directories
