Installing a Floppy Diskette Drive
The mainboard has a floppy diskette drive interface and it ships
with a diskette drive ribbon cable that supports one or two floppy
diskette drives. You can install a 5.25-inch and a 3.5-inch drive with
various capacities.
1. Install the floppy diskette drive into the drive cage in your
system case. Plug the diskette drive cable into the diskette
drive interface on the mainboard FDD1.
2. Plug one of the connectors on the diskette drive cable into
the data connector on the back edge of the floppy diskette
drive. Make sure that you have the pin-1 side of the cable
matched with the pin-1 side of the connector.
3. Plug a power cable from the case power supply unit into the
power connector on the back edge of the diskette drive.
4. When you first start up your system, go immediately to the
BIOS Setup Utility and use Standard CMOS Setup to con-
figure the floppy diskette drives that you have installed. See
Chapter 3 for more information.
