IBM

PC

Models

Some

early

models

of

the

IBM

PC

(the

PC

1)

do

not

contain

the

ROM

BIOS codes

which

allow you

to

boot

DOS

directly

from

the

hard

disk.

For

these systems, a

software

patch

is

necessary

for

the

PC

to

recognize

the

hard

disk

drive.

Everex

Systems provides you

with

such

a

software

patch.

This

patch

is called EVEREXl.EXE

and

is

located

on

the

EVERDISK

software

diskette

that

accompanies

your

hard

disk subsystem.

On

the

left

hand

side

of

your

IBM

PC

motherboard

(near

the

speaker)

is

a

white

label

which

indicates

the

model

number

of

the

Pc.

If

it

is labeled 16K - 64K

CPU,

you

have

a

PC

1,

if it is

labeled

64K - 256K

CPU,

you

have

a

PC

2.

1

Copy

the

file EVEREXl.EXE

from

your

EVERDISK

utility

diskette

to

your

lines

(DO

NOT

do this

if
