Defining your own drive type

If the parameters for your hard disk do not match the

parameters detected by the auto-sensing feature, or if you want
to use your drive with parameters other than the defaults,
follow these steps to define your own type:

1.

Move the cursor to Hard Disk 1 or

2

and press + or -until

you see User Def 1 or User Def 2.

2.

Press

to move the cursor to the Cy1 field.

3.

Type the appropriate cylinder value for your hard disk. The
documentation that came with your hard disk drive will

provide the parameter information you need.

4.

Continue pressing

to move the cursor to the next field

and type in the appropriate values.

Checking System Memory

Your computer comes with 4MB of random access memory

(RAM) on SIMMs. When you boot your computer, the system

BIOS detects the type of RAM and updates the base memory

size and the extended memory size automatically. You see the

memory configuration displayed on this SETUP screen.

Setting the Video Display Type

The Video Card option lets you define the type of adapter you

are using for your primary display. If you connected your

monitor to the computer’s built-in VGA port, select
