Installing the Hard Drive 13
2
a. Press the pause/break key after the memory count to pause the system boot.
The pause/break key is usually located in the upper right corner of your keyboard (see
Figure 13). Pausing the boot will give you time to locate the function key message.
b.
Press the Enter key to resume system boot.
3. Immediately after the function key appears, press the indicated key to enter
Setup.
Within the BIOS Setup utility, navigation is limited to keyboard commands. The active
function keys are usually Esc, Tab, PG/UP, PG/DN, Enter, +, -, spacebar, number, and
arrow keys. The BIOS Setup utility usually has function key instructions located somewhere
on the screen.
4. Upon entering Setup, highlight the auto-detect IDE/HDD hard drives option (if
displayed) and press Enter.
This will allow the system to automatically detect the devices
on your primary and secondary ATA channels.
Some BIOS Setup utilities do not have an auto-detect option on the first page. In this case,
choose the Standard CMOS option to detect the hard drive.
5. After the hard drives are detected, save the settings.
If you are unable to locate the function key message to enter CMOS Setup or are
experiencing difficulty with hard drive detection in the BIOS, refer to your system manual
or contact your system manufacturer.
6. Exit Setup and power off the system.
