A bootable CD-ROM or DVD-ROM may have a floppy disk or hard drive format. When a bootable CD-ROM or
DVD-ROM is used, drive allocations change automatically without changing the BIOS setup. If a floppy disk for-
mat CD-ROM or DVD-ROM is used, the disc becomes Drive A. The CD-ROM or DVD-ROM will only take drive
C: (hard drive format) if the internal hard drive is not present or is disabled. The bootable CD-ROM or DVD-ROM
can never use a C: designation if a formatted internal hard drive is present since the C: designator is always
reserved for the internal hard drive.The boot sequence ignores the new drive designations, however, your applica-
tion software will use the new designations.
■
Be aware of the operating environment when booting from CD-ROM/DVD-ROM or you may mistakenly over-
write files.

Serial/Parallel Port Configuration Submenu of the Advanced Menu
The Serial/Parallel Port Configuration submenu
provides the ability to set the I/O addresses and inter-
rupt levels for the infrared ports of your system.
I/O addresses, DMA channels, and
Interrupt levels can be entered in various
ways, including via the BIOS setup utility,
the control software for the I/O device, or
the hardware. If any two ports or devices
have the same I/O address assigned your
system will not function normally. Please
keep a record of original settings before
making any changes in the event that a
restoration is required. See your hardware
and software documentation as well as the
setup utility to determine settings,
■
To prevent IRQ and address conflicts,
avoid changing the default settings. If
you must change the settings, you can
call 1-800-8Fujitsu for technical assis-
tance.

All I/O addresses in Table 5 are in hexa-
decimal.

Boot Device Priority Submenu of the Boot Menu
The Boot Device Priority submenu is for setting the order of checking of sources for the operating system.
■
Be aware of the operating environment when booting from a CD or you may overwrite files by mistake.
■
A bootable CD-ROM has either a floppy disk or a hard drive format. When a bootable CD-ROM is used,
drive allocations change automatically without changing the BIOS setup. If floppy disk format is used, the
CD-ROM becomes Drive A. The CD-ROM will only take drive C: (hard drive format) if the internal hard
drive is not present or is disabled. A bootable CD-ROM cannot use a C: designation if a formatted internal
hard drive is present since the C: designator is always reserved for the internal hard drive.The boot
sequence ignores new drive designations, but your application software will use the new designations.
■
In order for a portable USB memory device (e.g., JumpDrive or memory stick) to be recognized in the Boot
Device Priority list, it must have been installed before booting the system.
■
Note that some older portable USB memory devices may not be recognized as bootable devices.
■
The Boot Menu can also be invoked outside of the Setup Utility using the TrustedCore menu or the [F12]
key. (See Using the TrustedCore Menu on page 2 for more information)
