46 Advantage! 9000 Series User’s Manual

As described on the last page in your Zip drive

User’s

Guide, the Zip drive’s IDE Device configuration must be
set to

Disabled (which will allow Windows 95 to perform

the configuration) or your system may hang. Your Zip
drive will be detected and configured when you start
Windows 95. If you enter System Setup and use the
option to return to default values, be sure to reset or
check that the field for the Zip drive is set to

Disabled.

See the Zip drive

User’s Guide for information on using

the drive in Windows 95 DOS mode.

IDE Device Configuration:

In this field, you specify

whether the system will automatically configure your
IDE device, or whether you intend to manually enter the
information. The options are Auto Configured, User
Definable
, or Disabled.
If you choose the Auto Configured option, the Number of
Cylinders, Number of Heads, Number of Sectors, and
Maximum Capacity fields are automatically calculated by
the BIOS; no input is necessary or possible. These fields
will be for reference only.
If you choose the User Definable option, you will need to
know how many cylinders, heads, and sectors to specify
for your IDE device. Refer to the documentation that
came with your IDE device for this information.
Set this field to Disabled for any unused IDE connectors.

Notes on Drive Configurations:

If you are configuring your system to use only SCSI or
other non-IDE drive(s) connected to an add-in board, they
will be installed by the BIOS on the add-in board. Do not
attempt to install these drives through this Setup
program. Select

Disabled if you have no IDE drives

installed.

Do not set up a second hard-disk type unless you also
have set up a first hard-disk type.

If a CD-ROM drive is attached to the secondary IDE
connector, its drive type is

Auto.

Attach an IDE hard drive to the IDE 2 connector

only if

two IDE devices already use the IDE 1 connector. Do not
