DPS Self-Test
Allows you to execute self-tests on IDE hard drives
capable of performing the Drive Protection System
(DPS) self-tests.
Note: This selection will only appear when at least
one drive capable of performing the IDE DPS self-
tests is attached to the system
Hard Drive Order
(supported on select
models only)
Allows you to specify the order of attached hard drive
controllers. The first hard drive controller in the order
will have priority in the boot sequence and will be
recognized as drive C (if any devices are attached).
SCSI Narrow Termination
(supported on select
models only)
Allows you to configure SCSI termination on the
internal SCSI subsystem for older, narrow SCSI
devices only. This feature is disabled by default
which allows connection to wide SCSI devices.
Boot Order
Allows you to specify the order in which attached
peripheral devices (such as diskette drive, hard drive,
CD-ROM, or network interface card) are checked for
a bootable operating system image. Each device on
the list may be individually excluded from or included
for consideration as a bootable operating system
source. ±or systems with more than one attached
diskette or disk drive, a submenu allows you to
specify the order in which the devices are assigned
drive letters.
Note
: MS-DOS drive lettering assignments may not
apply after a non-MS-DOS operating system has
started.
To boot
one time
from a device other than the
default device specified in Boot Order, restart the
computer and press ±9 when the ±10=Setup
message appears on the screen. When POST is
completed, a list of bootable devices is displayed.
Use the arrow keys to select a device and press the
Enter key.
Support for Computer Setup options may vary depending on your specific hardware configuration.
