Install a 40 pin Data Cable ensuring that pin 1, which can be identified by the striped edge of the cable, is closest to the power connector on the drive. 2. Install a DC power cable to the back of the drive. 3. Verify the jumper configurations for Master/Slave operation (Note: Master will be the bootable drive. The slave will not be bootable.) Also make sure the existing C: drive is jumped to be the Master in a two drive system, not the only drive in the system. 4. Apply power to the computer. 4a. When memory test is complete go into your system's Standard CMOS set-up. (Note: There are various ways to get into CMOS set-up, please refer to system's manual for instructions.) 4b. If your system's BIOS supports a user programmable drive type, program the BIOS with the default parameters of your drive. If your system does not support a user programmable drive type choose parameters that closely match but do not exceed the drives MegaByte capacity. Escape from set-up then choose write to CMOS and exit. 5. Boot from a DOS diskette that has FDISK.EXE and FORMAT.COM on it. At the A> prompt type in FDISK. At the menu options select option 1 to create a DOS partition. Another menu will appear and from those options choose 1 to create a Primary DOS partition. Select yes to make 1 large partition and it will automatically become active. Then escape from FDISK. 6. At the A> prompt type in FORMAT C:/S This does a high-level format on the drive and transfers the system files in order for the drive to be bootable. (Note: IDE drives are low-level formatted from the manufacturer and only need a high-level format). To configure the drive as a slave drive repeat steps 1-4 and proceed with steps 5a. and 6a. as follows: 5a. At the C> prompt type in FDISK. When the menu options appear select option 5 to switch to the second drive. Enter fixed disk drive number 2. Then choose option 1 to create a DOS partition, then select option 1 again to create a Primary DOS partition or option 2 to create an Extended DOS partition. (Note: C and D drives will always be the Primary partitions but only the Primary partition on C: will have a status of active). 6a. Proceed with a high-level format on the drive by typing FORMAT D: (Note: Make sure the correct drive letter has been selected for format). 7. The drive is now bootable. As a test remove the DOS diskette from A and press reset to reboot the computer, a C> should be displayed, the drive is now ready for operation.
