Preparing the Drive with Disk Manager Installing a Single Drive If you are installing a single drive, we recommend using Disk Manager to automatically partition and format your drive. This software is stored on the CD provided with your drive. To run Disk Manager: 1. Boot your computer from your Windows 98 or 95 startup diskette. 2. Insert the DiscWizard CD and change to the drive letter of your CDROM. 3. At the prompt, type dm. Then press ENTER. Disk Manager guides you through the installation process. 4. Proceed to the section on "Loading the Operating System." Installing a Slave Drive If you are installing a second drive, or slave, to your system, use the DiscWizard software provided with your drive. Note. If you do not want to install your drive using Disk Manager, see "Standard DOS installation" below to partition and format your drive. Standard DOS Installation ! Caution. Partitioning or formatting a drive erases all data on it. Seagate assumes no liability if you erase your data. Drive Partitioning Partitioning divides the drive into sections or partitions that function as separate logical drives (labeled C,D,E, etc.). To partition your new drive: 1. Insert a bootable DOS diskette and restart your computer. 2. Type fdisk and press ENTER. If you have two drives installed, select your new drive from option five of the FDISK menu. 3. Select "Create DOS partition or logical DOS drive" by pressing 1. Then press ENTER. 4. Select "Create Primary DOS partition" by pressing 1 again. Create your first drive partition. To make the partition bootable, mark the partition as active. 5. Verify that all space on your new drive has been partitioned. If necessary, create an extended partition with additional logical drives. Drive Formatting ! Caution. Use the correct drive letters to prevent formatting a drive that already contains data. At the A: prompt, type format x:/s. where x is the letter of your first new partition. Repeat the format process for all new partitions. Proceed to "Loading the Operating System" below. Loading the Operating System 1. Boot your computer from your Windows 98 or 95 startup diskette with the Windows CD loaded. 2. At the prompt, type x:\setup, where x is the drive letter of your CDROM drive. Continue with the Windows setup instructions. Troubleshooting If your drive is not working properly, follow these troubleshooting steps. 1. Does the drive spin up? A spinning drive produces a faint whine and clicking noise that begins when power is applied. If your drive does not spin, check that the power connector and interface cable are securely attached and the jumpers are installed correctly. 2. Does the computer recognize the drive? Verify that the drive is enabled in the system CMOS or setup program. If not, select the autodetect option and enable it. If your drive has a problem, it may not be recognized by the system. 3. Does FDISK detect the drive? Run the FDISK program located on your Windows startup diskette. Type fdisk/status to verify that your hard drive is present. 4. Does Scandisk find the drive defect-free? Scandisk is a utility located on your Windows startup diskette that scans the drive for defects. If defects are detected, this may be an indication of a problem. 5. Why won't the drive format to full capacity? Verify that your BIOS has autodetect and LBA mode enabled. Otherwise you may need to use Disk Manager to achieve the full capacity of your drive. Download the latest version from www.seagate.com or find it on your CD. 6. The computer hangs on startup. Use the alternate capacity jumper if your computer does not support higher capacity drives. The jumper limits the 40-Gbyte drive capacity to 33.8 Gbytes and limits drives with capacities of 30 Gbytes or less to 2.1 Gbytes. To reach full capacity, refer to heading 5. Note. If the above steps do not solve the problem, contact your dealer or visit www.seagate.com to download SeaTools disc diagnostics software and for more troubleshooting advice.
