To use an IDE drive, you need to enter the drive type (this information
is provided by the drive manufacturer) into the system' s CMOS setup
table. Then run FDISK and FORMAT provided with DOS. You may also
use the IDE HDD Auto Detection function which will allow the BIOS to
auto detect your hard drive type. Refer to the IDE HDD Auto Detection
section for details.
Warning:
Do not run FDISK and FORMAT programs on a drive that has already
been formatted or you will lose all programs and data stored on the
drive.
Using 586ITB with CD-ROM Drives
If you encountered problems while using an ATAPI CD-ROM drive that
is set in Master mode, please set the CD-ROM drive to Slave mode.
Some ATAPI CD-ROMs may not be recognized and cannot be used if
incorrectly set in Master mode.

The 586ITB system board is
equipped with two connectors, at

puter and a wide range of simulta-
neously accessible peripherals.

Integrated Peripherals setup of the
Award BIOS is Enabled.
Connecting the USB Ports
As an option, one card-edge bracket mounted with two USB port cables
may be provided with the system board. The ends of the cables are at-
tached to a connector. Mount the card-edge bracket to the system chassis.
