The computer attempts to boot first from a bootable diskette, Super Disk, or Zip disk. If it does not detect one of these removable media disks, the computer tries to boot from the hard-disk drive. If a disk is in its drive, but the disk does not have the required boot files, an error message appears.

Internal Hard Drive The computer boots only from the hard-disk drive. If it fails to boot from the hard-disk drive, the computer does not attempt to boot from the diskette drive.
