Boot Menu - Asus A7VI-VM User Manual

4.6 Boot Menu

Boot Sequence
The Boot menu allows you to select among the four possible types of boot devices
listed using the up and down arrow keys. By using the <+> or <Space> key, you can
promote devices and by using the <-> key, you can demote devices. Promotion or
demotion of devices alters the priority which the system uses to search for a boot
device on system power up. Configuration fields include Removable Devices, IDE
Hard Drive, ATAPI CD-ROM, and Other Boot Device.
Removable Device [Legacy Floppy]
Configuration options: [Disabled] [Legacy Floppy] [LS120] [ZIP-100] [ATAPI MO]
[USB FDD] [USB ZIP]
IDE Hard Drive
This field allows you to select which IDE hard disk drive to use in the boot se-
quence. Pressing [Enter] will show the product IDs of all connected IDE hard disk
drives.
ATAPI CD-ROM
This field allows you to select which ATAPI CD-ROM drive to use in the boot
sequence. Pressing [Enter] will show the product IDs of all your connected ATAPI
CD-ROM drives.
IMPORTANT:
Make sure the ATAPI CD-ROM drive that you want to use in the
boot sequence is connected to either the PRIMARY or SECONDARY IDE con-
nectors, not to the ATA100 connectors. Currently, the Promise® Ultra DMA/100
chip does not support this feature.
