 Make sure that the drive type has been correctly selected

in the SETUP program.

 Make sure jumper JP2 is set to position 1-2 to enable the

diskette drive controller.

If you are installing a drive that cannot use the embedded

IDE interface (such as an ESDI drive), it is recommended
that you use a 16-bit, AT-type hard disk controller. If you
install a non-IDE hard disk drive and controller card, you
must set jumper JP25 to on to disable the built-in IDE hard

disk drive interface. Also, remove the hard disk drive
ribbon connector from the system board.

When installing a hard disk drive, use the auto-sensing
feature in SETUP to select the correct type for the drive. If
the auto-sensing feature does not produce a match for the

drive, you can define your own drive type by selecting

User as the type and entering the drive’s parameters.

 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 

Ctrl Alt - 

(on the

numeric keypad). Try loading the program at low speed

and then switching to high speed, if possible.

 When running 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.

If you are installing a video adapter card, make sure you

disable the built-in VGA controller by setting JP50 to 2-3.

When you replace the processor, you need to check the
settings of several jumpers, as listed on page 3.

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

sure the booting sequence in SETUP is set to A: then C :
Then boot the computer from a system diskette in drive A.

If you forget your password, you must discharge your
CMOS memory as follows:

1.

Turn off the computer and remove the cover.

Disable the password by setting jumper JP49 on the main
system board to on.

Turn the computer on, leave it on for a few seconds, then

turn it off again.

Set jumper JP49 back to off to select the system board

battery.

Run SETUP to enter a new password, if desired.

None.

None.

None.
