BOOT MENU – SELECTING THE OPERATING SYSTEM SOURCE
The Boot Menu is used to select the order in which the
BIOS searches sources for the operating system. (See
Navigating through the Setup Utility on page 2 for more
information.)
Be careful of the operating environment when booting from a CD or you may overwrite files by mistake.
A bootable CD-ROM has either a floppy disk format or a hard drive format. When the CD-ROM is used, drive
allocations change automatically without changing the BIOS setup. If a floppy disk format is used, the CD-
ROM becomes Drive A. The CD-ROM will only take drive C: (hard drive format) if the internal hard drive is not
present or disabled. The bootable CD-ROM can never use a C: designation if a formatted internal hard drive is
present since the C: designator is always reserved for the hard drive.The boot sequence ignores the new drive
designations, but your application software will use the new designations.

Description
The boot selections determine the order that the BIOS searches for the operating system during the
startup sequence. To change the order, highlight one source by using the [up] or [down] cursor keys
and then press the [+] or [-] key to change the order number. Tapping [x] removes from the list a
device that is not installed. Tapping [x] on an item in the Excluded list adds the device to the Boot
priority list. Be sure to save the changed order when you exit the BIOS utility by either going to the
Exit Menu and choosing Exit Saving Changes, or pressing F10 and choosing Yes to Save and Exit.
NOTE: Be aware that if you use the CD-ROM drive as the first boot device, certain files may be over-
written, depending upon your operating environment.
