Using the Diskette Drive
To use the diskette drive, you must open the front panel. See "Accessing
the CD-ROM and Diskette Drives" on page 18 for details. Most diskettes
contain a write-protect tab. The write-protect tab prevents accidental
changes to a diskette. When the hole is open, the diskette is write-
protected—you can't delete, copy, or save information on the diskette.
When the hole is closed, you may write to or modify the diskette
contents. Just slide the write-protect tab to open and close the hole.
