IDE HDD Auto Detection
If your system has an IDE hard drive, you can use this function
to detect its parameters and enter them into the "Standard
CMOS Setup" automatically.
This routine only detects one set of parameters for your IDE
hard drive. Some IDE drives can use more than one set of
parameters. If your hard disk is formatted using different
parameters than those detected, you have to enter the
parameters manually. If the parameters listed do not match the
ones used to format the disk, the information on that disk will
not be accessible. If the auto-detected parameters displayed
do not match those that are used for your drive, ignore them.
Type
N
to reject the values and enter the correct ones
manually from the Standard CMOS Setup screen.
