Installation using Disk Manager
1. Boot your computer from your DiscWizard diskette. Booting
from a diskette ensures that the Disk Manager installation
does not conflict with other software. The Disk Manager soft-
ware is stored on this diskette and automatically starts.
Or at the A: prompt, type DM and press
ENTER
.
2. Follow the onscreen instructions until you see the
Select an
Installation Option menu.
3. Select either
(E)asy Disk Installation or (A)dvanced Disk
Installation.
Disk Manager lists all the hard drives that it detects. You
should see your new Seagate drive and your existing hard
drive, if any.
If any hard drive is not recognized, exit Disk Manager and
turn off your computer. Check all cables, jumpers and BIOS
settings. Then start at step 1 to run Disk Manager again.
4. If Disk Manager recognizes all your drives, select the drive
you want to install and press
ENTER
. Disk Manager partitions
and formats the drive.
Important. If Disk Manager determines that your BIOS needs
support for drive capacities greater than 8.4 Gbytes,
instructions on booting from your A: drive will be pro-
vided. Disk Manager installs a
Dynamic Drive Over-
lay (DDO) on your hard drive. If this driver has been
installed, you should see a blue Disk Manager ban-
ner each time you boot your computer. See the Disk
Manager online manual for details.
