Boot-Up Function
If you are using the Windows® 98SE* Operating Systems the T.sonic™ can be configured to act as an MS-DOS Boot Disk. After you setup the T.sonic™ you can use it to boot-up your computer, allowing you to run MS-DOS programs; this does not make the T.sonic™ a Rescue Disk for Windows, nor does it put Windows Startup files onto your T.sonic™. After booting with the T.sonic™, you must start Windows from your hard drive, or a previously created Rescue Disk.
To use the Boot-Up function, you must log in to the Windows OS with Administrator rights.
A maximum capacity of 512MB is reserved for the Boot-Updisk sector in the USB-HDD(Windows® 98SE only) formats.
System Requirements for the Boot-Up Function
A desktop or notebook computer that supports USB-HDD(Windows® 98SE only) as the First Boot Device in its BIOS.
A computer running Windows® 98SE.
Any anti-virus applications that may be running in the background must be turned off.
