1.10 FINAL INSTALLATION CHECKS

1. Check cable connections.
Check that the EIDE/IDE interface cable is installed correctly with all 40
of the pins on the rear of the drive inserted into the cable connector.
Ensure also that the 4-pin power cable connector is completely inserted
into the rear of the drive.
2. Confirm that the jumper block is installed in the correct position.
This position was determined in Section 1.7, Configuration Options.
3. Ensure that the cables connected to the other devices have not
been loosened or disconnected.
Cables running to devices other than the ORB drive may have been
loosened or disconnected during the installation process.
Replace the cover of the computer, reinsert the screws, connect any
other devices you may have disconnected from the computer, and
reconnect the AC cable.

1.11 SYSTEM SETUP

1. ORB disk insertion
To insert the disk, push the disk straight
into the ORB drive with your finger, all the
way in, until it stops, and then press down
to ensure that the disk is seated.
CAUTION: Do not label the disk with a lead pencil. Please use
indelible ink pen.
2. Power on your system.
The ORB drive should be detected during system startup.
CAUTION: If you insert an ORB disk in your ORB drive and
Windows asks you if you want to format the disk, be careful
how you respond. Formatting a disk with data on it will destroy
all the data.
If the drive is not detected, or your system hangs during the bootup
process, you may have to use your system’s BIOS setup program. Some
basic information about how to do this is located in Section 3, Troubleshooting.
You may also need to refer to your computer system’s manual for
information about how the BIOS setup program works on your computer.
