4. Toggle the Boot Order fields to the boot sequence you prefer.

NOTE:

The Boot Order field for the computer top MultiBay or

the computer Dual MultiBay is MultiBay-1; the Boot Order

field for the computer bottom MultiBay is MultiBay-2.

5. To save your preferences and exit Boot Options, press

F10.

6. To confirm saving your changes, close Computer Setup, and

restart the computer, select File

Save Changes and Exit, then

press

F10.

When the computer restarts and searches for a startup drive, it

considers only the first drive of each type. For example, in the

default boot order, the computer will not start from a bootable

diskette drive diskette in an expansion base if a non-bootable

diskette drive diskette is in the computer bottom MultiBay.

IMPORTANT:

Changing the boot order also changes the logical drive

designations. For example, if you start up from a hard drive in the

computer top MultiBay, it becomes drive C and a hard drive in the

hard drive bay becomes drive D. Starting up from a network board

does not affect logical drive designations.
