Using Your Diskette Drive
To insert a diskette into the diskette drive, hold the diskette with the label facing up
and the arrow on the diskette pointing towards the drive, and gently push the
diskette into the drive.
To remove a diskette, press the Eject button on the diskette drive.
`
CAUTION:
Removing a diskette when the drive is reading from or writing to the
diskette can damage the diskette or damage the information stored on it. Wait until
the diskette drive activity is complete before removing a diskette.
If the diskette does not eject, contact your local Compaq-authorized dealer,
reseller, or service provider.
Write-Protecting a Diskette
The write-protect tab on a standard 3.5-inch diskette serves the purpose of not
allowing you to save data to or delete data from the diskette.
The write-protect tab functions the same way as on a standard 3.5-inch diskette. If
the hole is covered, you can read and write to the diskette. If the hole is open, you
can only read from the diskette.
