********************************************************************** * * Copyright ©2006-2009 Intel Corporation * Intel(R) Active Management Technology Status * ********************************************************************** ********************************************************************** * CONTENTS OF THIS DOCUMENT ********************************************************************** This document contains the following sections: 1. Overview 2. System Requirements 3. Usage 4. Customized Configuration of Intel(R) AMT Status application 5. License Agreement ********************************************************************** * 1. Overview ********************************************************************** This Microsoft* Windows* application displays a message that indicates whether Intel(R) AMT is enabled or is disabled on computers that have Intel(R) AMT. The application also displays an icon in the notification area of the Windows* taskbar, indicating the Intel(R) AMT status. The status application is available only in English. The Privacy Icon application is executed and installed as part of the LMS-SOL setup.exe file. NOTES: - The Intel(R) AMT Status is available to users with "administrator" privileges and "non-administrator" privileges. - Changes made to Privacy Icon status display: a. To not have the Privacy Icon status pop-up every time a user logs into the machine, the status window has a new checkbox implemented. The checkbox displays - 'Do not show this message again', and if this checkbox is checked, then the automatic pop-up display is disabled. b. To re-enable the display of the pop-up of the Privacy Icon, the checkbox displaying - 'Reactivate Notification' should be checked. c. The enabling/disabling of the display of the Privacy Icon pop-up is specific to a particular user's settings and will not be the same for a different user logging into the same machine. If the pop-up is to be disabled for any user, the MinimizePrivacyIconAtStart registry key should be modified, as described below. ********************************************************************** * 2. System Requirements ********************************************************************** The Intel(R) AMT Status application is supported on the following operating systems: - Windows XP32 SP2/XP64 - Windows Vista 32/64 - Windows 7 ********************************************************************** 3. Usage ********************************************************************** The Intel(R) AMT Status application is installed as part of the LMS-SOL when the Setup.exe is executed. After being installed, the application appears on the task bar and is operated every time Windows* boots. ********************************************************************** 4. Customized configuration of Intel(R) AMT Status application ********************************************************************** a) To check Intel(R) AMT status: Run atchk.exe. To set the computer to always display the status icon on the Windows taskbar: (i) Run the enable.reg registry file (described below) (ii) Copy the atchk.exe to - C:\Program Files\Intel\AMT Status b) Files included with the Intel(R) AMT status application: (i) atchksrv.exe - This service will be automatically started when Windows* boots. This service takes care of the administrator privileges needed by the "non-administrator" users to make use of the Intel(R) AMT Status application. And hence, the Intel(R) AMT Status is displayed for "non-administrator" users also. (ii) enable.reg - Run this file once to start the application each time Windows boots. Note: This file assumes that the Intel(R) AMT status application is located at: "C:\Program Files\Intel\AMT Status\atchk.exe". If the application was installed in a different path (i.e. under "D:" or under "Program Files(x86)", then the enable.reg file should be modified accordingly. (iii) disable.reg - Run this file once to stop the application from starting when Microsoft Windows boots. The following files enable computer manufacturers to customize the application: (iv) oemlogo.sam - Modify this bitmap to display a custom graphic in the message window. If this bitmap is located in the same directory as atchk.exe, the application displays this graphic in place of the default Intel logo. The bitmap must conform to the following specifications: - 64 by 42 pixels - Overall file size of less than 15k bytes - The file must be renamed to oemlogo.bmp and must be of bitmap format (v) oementry.reg - The registry keys in this file illustrate how to modify the Windows registry to change the default behavior of the application. OemUrl: If this registry entry is found, the specified URL will be used for the “click here” URL instead of the default URL (http://www.intel.com/vpro). MinimizePrivacyIconAtStart: If this registry entry is found and is set to a value other than 0, the application will be minimized to the taskbar. Otherwise, the application displays the dialog when it starts. TRACE: If this registry entry is found and it set to the value of 1, a log file is created. The log file can be useful for validation and debugging. The log file is named: \temp\atchk.log ********************************************************************** INTEL SOFTWARE LICENSE AGREEMENT (OEM / IHV / ISV Distribution & Single User) ********************************************************************** IMPORTANT - READ BEFORE COPYING, INSTALLING OR USING.
