If you are using IBM DriveGuide to install a drive with a capacity of 32 GB or larger in
a system with Award BIOS and the system hangs during drive detection:
Reboot the system and hold the F4 key to bypass autodetection of the drive(s). This
should keep the system from hanging and allow the user to boot into IBM
DriveGuide.
Note: In some systems it may be necessary to repeat this procedure several times to
guarantee that the hang condition can be bypassed.
Once in DriveGuide, proceed through the partition and format and allow EZ-BIOS to
be installed.

added from “AUTOdetect” to USER Defined”.
Change the default setting for the number of logical cylinders for your new drive from

Exit the BIOS setup and save your changes.
Once in DriveGuide, proceed through a partition and format and allow EZ-BIOS to be
installed.

concern. The partition information will have been copied successfully. Remove the
DriveGuide diskette and reboot the system. Your new drive should be fully
accessible.
