Boot Device Priority Submenu Of The Boot Menu - Fujitsu Lifebook S760 Bios Manual

L i f e B o o k S S e r i e s B I O S

The Boot Device Priority submenu is for setting the order of checking of sources for the operating system.

Be aware 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 bootable CD-ROM

■

is used, the drive allocations change automatically without changing the BIOS setup. If a floppy disk for-

mat 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 is disabled. The CD-ROM can never use a C: designation if a for-

matted internal hard drive is present since C: is always reserved for the internal 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 in which the BIOS searches for the operating system during a

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 your changed order when you exit the BIOS setup utility.

NOTE: Be aware that if you use the CD-ROM drive as the first boot device, certain files may be

overwritten, depending upon your operating environment.
