Boot Device Priority Submenu of the Boot Menu
The Boot Device Priority Submenu is for setting the order for checking of sources for the operating system.
Figure 18. Boot Device Priority Submenu
■ Be aware of the operating environment when booting from a CD-ROM or you may overwrite files by
mistake.
■ A bootable CD-ROM has either a floppy disk format or a hard drive format. When the bootable CD-
ROM is used, the drive allocations change automatically without changing the BIOS setup. If a floppy
disk format is used, the CD-ROM becomes Drive A. The CD-ROM will only take drive C: (hard drive
format) if the internal hard drive is not present or is disabled. The bootable CD-ROM can never use a C:
designation if a formatted internal hard drive is present since the C: designator is always reserved for the
internal hard drive. The boot sequence ignores the new drive designations, however, your application
software will use the new designations.

The boot selections determine the order in which the BIOS searches for the operating system during a startup
sequence. To change the order, highlight one source by using the [up] or [down] cursor keys and then press the
[PgUp] or [PgDn] key to change the order number.
NOTE: Be aware that if you use the CD-ROM drive as the first boot device, certain files may be overwritten,
depending upon your operating environment.
