Configuring the BIOS
If you are installing a SCSI drive, you do not need to configure the BIOS. The 
installation is complete.
boot drive is a drive that can be used to start your computer. If you have 
multiple boot drives, you can specify their boot order. For example, setting a 
diskette drive as a first boot device and setting a Zip drive as a second boot 
device specifies that your computer first checks the diskette drive for a diskette 
containing computer startup files, then it checks the Zip drive for a disk 
containing computer startup files. If it fails to find either, it continues to start 
from the hard drive.
Older computers may not have boot support for some drives. If your computer 
does not support all drives, those drives will not be available in the boot device 
section of the BIOS, so you must update your BIOS. For more information, see 
your computer user’s guide.
After you install your drive, open the BIOS Setup utility and make sure that 
the computer recognizes your drive and that the boot order of your computer 
is correct.
To configure the BIOS:
1
Press F2 while restarting your computer to open the BIOS Setup utility. 
Some older computer models require you to press F1 instead.
2

Advanced
 menu, then set the master

.
Navigate among the menus and selections by pressing the arrow keys. 
Change selection values by pressing or .
3
If you want to start (boot) from your drive, go to the next step. Otherwise, 
go to Step 8.
4
If your computer uses a Phoenix BIOS, press the right arrow key to open 
the 
Boot Options
 menu.

If your computer uses an AMI BIOS, configure each device independently 
from the Main menu.
