Setting Up Your Save-To-Disk
File Allocation
Your notebook comes with an allocation of
space on the internal hard drive adequate to
operate the Save-to-Disk function for the
amount of memory installed at the factory.
If you add a RAM Module or do not use the
Save-to-Disk function and wish to free up the
disk space you will need to change the alloca-
tion. The utility to change the allocations is
PHDISK.EXE and is activated from the
MS-DOS prompt.
PHDISK allows you to perform five di erent
functions related to the Save-to-Disk space on
the internal hard drive. They are:
L i f e B o o k 4 0 0 S e r i e s f r o m F u j i t s u
1. All oc a te a space for the Save - to - Disk functi on .
2. Remove all space allocation for the Save-to-
Disk function.
3.Find out details about the hard drive and the
current Save-to-Disk space allocation.
4. Re-allocate space and mark bad blocks in the
space allocated to the Save-to-Disk function
when a disk error has occurred.
5. Find out how mu ch space is needed to perform
the Save - to - Disk functi on with the curren t
m em ory con fig u ra ti on and how mu ch unu s ed
s p ace is ava i l a ble on the internal hard drive .
To find out how much space is needed to per-
form the Save-to-Disk function with the cur-
rent memory configuration and how much
unused space is available on the internal hard
drive, do the following:
1.Go to the MS-DOS prompt.
(In Windows 95 go to the Start Menu and
select MS-DOS Prompt.)
2. Type CD C:\Fujitsu
