A bootable CD-ROM may have either a floppy disk or
hard drive format. When the bootable CD-ROM is
used, the drive allocations change automatically with-
out changing the BIOS setup. If a floppy disk format
CD-ROM is used, the CD-ROM becomes Drive A.
The CD-ROM will only take drive C: (hard drive for-
mat) if the internal hard drive is not present or is dis-
abled. 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.
■
Be careful of the operating environment when boot-
ing from a CD-ROM or you may overwrite files by
mistake.

I/O addresses, DMA channels, and Interrupt levels can
be entered in various ways, including via the BIOS setup
utility, the control software for the I/O device, or the
