7.1.4 Performing CMOS Setup Tasks
CMOS Setup is divided into two modes, standard and advanced. Table 7–2 lists the
tasks that you can perform in standard and advanced setup mode.
To enter standard CMOS Setup:
• Start AlphaBIOS Setup, select CMOS Setup, and press Enter.
To enter advanced CMOS Setup:
1. Start AlphaBIOS Setup, select CMOS Setup, and press Enter.
2. In the CMOS Setup screen, press F6.
7.1.5 Setting Up Your Hard Disk
Express hard-disk setup is an easy way to create the recommended partition arrange-
ment on your first hard disk, disk 0. Note, however, that express hard-disk setup does
not format the large partition with NTFS. You will have the opportunity to do this
during the Windows NT installation.
Note: AlphaBIOS assigns “disk 0” to the hard disk with the lowest SCSI ID
number on the first bus in your system. If no SCSI devices are present,
AlphaBIOS assigns disk 0 to the first IDE hard drive.
Caution: If you have any information on your disk that you want to save, be sure
to back it up before using express hard-disk setup.
