Setting the Boot Drive Sequence
The Boot Drive Sequence section lists boot priorities (1st, 2nd and 3rd) for
bootable drives in your computer.
For example, the default value (1st:Floppy Disk, 2nd:Hard Disk, and 3rd:CD-
ROM) tells the computer to first search for a bootable floppy disk in the floppy
drive. If it finds one present, it boots up from that floppy disk. If not, the
computer continues by booting up from the hard disk. If it cannot boot up
from the hard disk, it continues to search for a bootable CD-ROM in the CD-
ROM drive.
To set the boot drive sequence, use the cursor up/down keys to select a
priority level (1st, 2nd, or 3rd); then use the cursor left/right keys to select
the device for that priority level.
