Figure 16. Boot Device Priority Submenu

Be aware of the operating environment when booting from a CD-ROM or you may overwrite files by mistake.

A bootable CD-ROM has either a floppy disk format or a hard drive format. When the bootable CD- ROM is used, the drive allocations change automatically without changing the BIOS setup. If a floppy disk format is used, the CD-ROM becomes Drive A. The CD-ROM will only take drive C: (hard drive format) if the internal hard drive is not present or is disabled. The bootable CD-ROM can never use a C: designation if a formatted internal hard drive is present since the C: designator is always reserved for the internal hard drive. The boot sequence ignores the new drive designations, however, your application software will use the new designations.

+Floppy Disk Drive

The boot selections determine the order in which the BIOS searches for the operating system during a startup

 

sequence. To view all devices related to a source, press [Enter]; to view all devices related to all sources, press

+Hard Disk Drive

[Ctrl] + [Enter]. To change the order, highlight one source by using the [up] or [down] cursor keys and then press

CD-ROM Drive

the [+] or [-] key to change the order number. [Shift] + [1] enables or disables a device. Tapping [d] removes from

the list a device that is not installed. Be sure to save your changed order when you exit the BIOS setup utility.

 

NOTE: Be aware that if you use the CD-ROM drive as the first boot device, certain files may be overwritten,

 

depending upon your operating environment.

 

 

Exiting from Boot Menu

When you have finished setting the boot parameters with the Boot menu, you can either exit from the setup utility or move to another menu. If you wish to exit from the setup utility press the Esc key to go to the Exit menu. If you wish to move to another menu, use the cursor keys.
