Each item includes none, one or more setup items. Use the Up/Down arrow keys or
<Tab> to highlight the item or field you want to modify and use the <+> or <-> key to
switch to the value  you prefer.

This item allows you to set the type of floppy drives installed.

 Primary Master/Slave

[Type]

Press PgUp/<+> or PgDn/<-> to select
[Manual], [None] or [Auto] type. Note that the
specifications of your drive must match with

properly if you enter improper information for
this category. If your hard disk drive type is
not matched or listed, you can use [Manual] to
define your own drive type  manually.
