2.Type ez.

3.Disregard the Notice dialog box. The EZ-Drive software is authorized for installation only with the drive on which it is shipped. Press ENTER to continue.

4.Locate the bottom box on the screen. The model number of each drive EZ-Drive identifies is listed in this box. If a drive is missing or the order is incorrect or there is a drive not identified message, make sure the master and slave jumpers are set correctly on the drives and the cables are properly connected.

Caution. Turn off your computer before resetting the jump- ers or removing the cables.

5.If the drives are correctly identified, choose Select Fully Auto- matic Installation in the top box.

Note. Additional information about EZ-Drive is offered in the Installation Help option. Installation and troubleshooting information is available there also.

If you are installing the drive as Drive C, EZ-Drive automat- ically writes the system files to the drive to make it bootable.

6.When the format is complete, EZ-Drive presents an options dialog box. Select and read the Important Information option. This instruction tells you how to boot from a floppy and still retain the use of the EZ-Drive installed drive.

7.Select Reboot to reboot the computer and to save the instal- lation. Remove the EZ-Drive diskette and put it away. It contains information about the drive setup. The computer should boot to the C: prompt.

Toward the end of the boot sequence, your screen should display a prompt for booting with a diskette followed quickly by the Micro House banner and the C: prompt. If the instruction and the banner fail to appear, your computer has not found the EZ-Drive installed drive.
