Using the AFDD Program

AFDD reverses the current diskette drive assignments and

resets the system. When you are done using the reversed drive

assignments, you can use the AFDD program again to reassign

the drives to their original configuration.

The AFDD program is provided with your system on the

Reference diskette. If you do not have a hard disk, insert your

Reference diskette in drive A and log onto drive A before you

enter the command to start the program.

If you have a hard disk drive, copy the file AFDD.EXE from the

Reference diskette onto your hard disk (if you have not already

done so); then you can run the program from there.

To run AFDD, type the following at the command prompt and

press

AFDD

You see messages such as the following:

New Assign Present

Drive A:

1.44MB <=

1.2MB

Drive B:

1.2MB <=

1.44MB

(S)et and Reboot,

Any other key to abort ?

If you inserted the Reference diskette to run AFDD, remove it

now.

If you want to change the drive assignments, press

The

system reboots and loads the operating system, and the new

drive assignments take effect. If you do not want to change the

drive assignments, press any other key.
