Installing Hard Disk Drives

It is recommended that a 16-bit, AT-type hard disk

controller be used if you are installing a drive that cannot

use the embedded IDE interface. If you install

a

non-IDE

hard disk drive and controller card, you need to use the

SETUP program to disable the built-in IDE hard disk drive

interface.
When installing a hard disk drive, see the hard disk drive

type tables on page 7 and use the SETUP program to select

the correct type number for the drive. You can select a

type number that matches the parameters for the drive or

a type number with parameters having lesser values, as

long as they do not exceed the maximum capacity (in MB)

of the drive. If there is no match for the drive, you can

select a user-defined drive type (48 or 49) and enter the

drive’s exact parameters.

Software Problems

When installing a copy-protected software package, first

try the installation at high speed. If this does not work

properly, select low speed by pressing the Ctrl and Alt keys

and the - key on the numeric keypad simultaneously. Try

loading the program at low speed and then switching to

high speed, if possible.
When using a software package that uses a key disk as its

copy-protection method, try loading it at high speed. If

this does not work, load it at low speed.

Password

Make sure that you do not forget the password you set up. If

you do, you must disable it by setting jumper J7 on the main

system board to the ON position.
If you set J7 to ON, however, CMOS RAM returns to the

factory settings and you need to run the SETUP program to

enter your system configuration again.

Booting Sequence

If you cannot boot the computer from the hard disk drive,

make sure the booting sequence in the SETUP program is set

to A, C. Then boot the computer from a system diskette in

drive A.
