■
A bootable CD-ROM may have either a floppy disk or hard drive format. When the bootable CD-ROM is
used, the drive allocations change automatically without changing the BIOS setup. If a floppy disk format
CD-ROM is used, the CD-ROM becomes Drive A. The CD-ROM will only take drive C: (hard drive for-
mat) if the internal hard drive is not present or is disabled. The bootable CD-ROM can never use a C: des-
ignation 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 application soft-
ware will use the new designations.
■
Be careful of the operating environment when booting from a CD-ROM or you may overwrite files by
mistake.
