A bootable CD-ROM or DVD-ROM may have a floppy disk or hard drive format. When a bootable CD-ROM or
DVD-ROM is used, drive allocations change automatically without changing the BIOS setup. If a floppy disk for-
mat CD-ROM or DVD-ROM is used, the disc becomes Drive A. The CD-ROM or DVD-ROM will only take drive
C: (hard drive format) if the internal hard drive is not present or is disabled. The bootable CD-ROM or DVD-ROM
can never use a C: designation if a formatted internal hard drive is present since the C: designator is always
reserved for the internal hard drive. The boot sequence ignores the new drive designations, however, your appli-
cation software will use the new designations.
■
Be careful of the operating environment when booting from CD-ROM/DVD-ROM or you may mistakenly over-
write files.
