Setup 4-5
4.3.1 Date and Time
The notebook displays the current date in MM/DD/YY format and the
current time in HH:MM:SS format. It uses a 24-hour clock; for example,
6:25 PM displays as 18:25:00.
4.3.2 Floppy Disk Drives
The default setting for Floppy Disk A is [1.44 MB 3.5-inch]. Since
the notebook supports only one diskette drive, Floppy Disk B is set to
[None] and is not user-configurable.
4.3.3 Fixed Disk Drives
The default setting for Fixed Disk 0 is [Auto]. In this setting, the BIOS
automatically detects your drive parameters. You can also opt to key in
your drive type or drive parameters. See Appendix B for a list of hard disk
drive types. To determine your drive type, compare the data on the label
pasted on your hard disk drive (or supplied in vendor documentation) with
the disk types found in Appendix B. Be sure to select the correct drive type;
otherwise an error message appears when you boot up the notebook. We
suggest you set this parameter to [Auto].
Hard Disk 1 is not supported in this notebook. It is set to [None] and is
not user-configurable.
4.3.4 Enhanced IDE Features
The default setting for Large Hard Disk Capacity is [Enabled].
4.3.5 Num Lock After Boot
When the Num Lock After Boot parameter is set to [Enabled], the
embedded keypad acts as a numeric keypad upon initial power-on or
reboot.
