Frequently Asked Questions C-3
Diskette Drive
Why can’t I boot from the diskette drive?
To boot from the diskette drive, be sure that you have a diskette in the drive
containing operating system files. Be sure to check the Boot menu parameters
in the BIOS Setup Utility to determine the designated sequence of boot
devices. See Chapter 3, “Using the BIOS Setup Utility.”
See your operating system documentation for information about creating
system diskettes.
What happens if I leave a diskette in my diskette drive?
Shutting down your system with a diskette in the drive can damage the data on
your diskette and your drive. Remove the diskette before powering off.
How do I format a diskette?
Select My Computer (in the Start menu in Windows XP, on the desktop in
Windows 2000) and then right click (click the right-hand mouse button) on
the diskette drive icon. Select Format and choose the format process that best
suits your needs.
What type of diskette do I use in my diskette drive?
The Versa E120 DayLite supports the 1.44-MB* diskette drive option which
uses 3.5-inch high density (HD) diskettes. These diskettes are also called
double-sided, high-density (DSHD) diskettes. You can store 1.44 MB* of
information on these diskettes.
This diskette drive can also use 3.5-inch double-sided, double-density
(DSDD) diskettes. These diskettes only hold 720 kilobytes of data – about
half the amount of data that 1.44-MB* diskettes hold.
