Description
Allows you to execute self-tests on IDE hard
drives capable of performing the Drive
Protection System (DPS) self-tests.
✎
This selection will only appear when at
least one drive capable of performing the
IDE DPS self-tests is attached to the
system.
Allows you to specify the order of attached
hard drive controllers. The first hard drive
controller in the order will have priority in the
boot sequence and will be recognized as
drive C (if any devices are attached).
Allows you to specify the order in which
attached peripheral devices (such as a diskette
drive, hard drive, optical drive, or network
interface card) are checked for a bootable
operating system image. Each device on the
list may be individually excluded from or
included for consideration as a bootable
operating system source.

not apply after a non-MS-DOS operating
system has started.

To boot one time from a device other than

completed, a list of bootable devices is
displayed. Use the arrow keys to select the
preferred bootable device and press the Enter
key. The computer then boots from the selected
non-default device for this one time.
