DIGITAL System Software CD
Included in the accessories kit is the DIGITAL System Software CD. This CD is a
bootable
CD and capable of being used to boot a PC on which the hard disk drive
has failed. It contains all of the applications, drivers and files necessary to restore
DIGITAL-supplied system software in the event of a hard disk drive failure. It also
contains expanded diagnostics and device drivers not included on the operating
system CD. This CD does not contain the operating system.
NOTE:
If the computer boots from a diskette or hard disk drive
instead of the CD-ROM drive, run the BIOS Setup utility to change the
boot sequence. In the Boot menu, make the CD-ROM drive the first
entry in the boot priority list, save the changes, then restart the
computer.
