When the

to complete the formatting procedure. Once the formatting procedure is fin-
ished, your installation is complete; you may access your newly-formatted
drive through your applications, as well as My Computer. Please note,
depending on the capacity of the drive you are working with, the formatting
procedure may take anywhere from a few seconds to a few minutes to 
complete.

WARNING:

By default, NTFS will be selected as the file system to use

when you format drives. 

Unless you need to move the Tempo Trio 

and hard drive(s) to another computer running Windows 98SE or Windows
Me, you should use the default (NTFS) file system choice

. Windows 98SE and

Windows Me are incapable of using NTFS-formatted drives; those operating sys-
tems require FAT32-formatted drives.

If you choose to change the default setting to FAT32, you should do so only
when formatting hard drives with a capacity of less than35GB. 

Windows 2000

and Windows XP cannot “see” more than 35GB of a FAT32-formatted drive,
regardless the capacity
