Hardware Installation
The floppy disk drive connector suppor ts two standard floppy disk
drives. To prevent improper floppy cable installation, the floppy disk
header has a keying mechanism. The 34-pin connector on the floppy
cable can be placed into the header only if pin 1 of the connector is
aligned with pin 1 of the header.
Connecting the Floppy Disk Drive Cable
Install one end of the floppy disk drive cable into the shrouded
floppy disk header (J20) on the system board and the other end-
most connector to the drive you want to designate as Drive A. If
you are connecting another drive (Drive B), install the middle connec-
tor of the cable to the drive. The colored edge of the daisy chained
ribbon cable should be aligned with pin 1 of J20.
BIOS Setting
Enable or disable this function in the Integrated Peripherals submenu
(“Super IO Device” section) of the BIOS. Refer to chapter 3 for
more information.
