First Boot

The first boot (also known as the Out of Box Experience) provides initial configuration of the Thor VM2. When a Thor
VM2 is ordered with a Windows 7 Professional or Windows Embedded 7 operating system, the product key is printed
on a decal on the rear of the Thor VM2. It may be necessary to remove the Thor VM2 from the dock to view the product
key decal. Under normal circumstances, it is not necessary to re-enter the product key as it was entered during the
manufacturing process. If the Thor VM2 was ordered without an operating system, a product key must be provided by
the customer to activate Windows.
When a new Thor VM2 starts up a EULA (End User License Agreement) may be displayed on the touch screen. It
remains on the screen until the Accept or Decline button is tapped with a stylus.
Tap the Accept button to accept the EULA terms and the Thor VM2 continues the startup process. The EULA is not
presented to the user again.
