Seagate 851SL Computer Drive User Manual


 
1. Turn the computer off.
2. Insert a bootable diskette into Drive A and turn the computer
on. Your computer must boot to Drive A without loading
EZ-Drive into the system memory.
3. When the boot cycle is complete, place a diskette that has the
FDISK utility in Drive A.
4. Type fdisk/mbr and press
ENTER. This command erases the
EZ-Drive-modified master boot record on Drive C and re-
places it with the standard DOS master boot record. The
computer can no longer identify drives that have capacities
greater than 528 Mbytes installed using EZ-Drive. You must
partition and format the drive to make it accessible (see
Partitioning and formatting the drive on page 21).
Disabling Maximum Overdrive
Maximum Overdrive enables the drive’s read/write multiple fea-
ture. You can disable Maximum Overdrive during the installation
process or anytime afterward.
To disable it during the installation, select the Change Install
Features option in the Options dialog box that appears when the
format completes. This feature allows you to enable or disable
Maximum Overdrive.
To disable it after the drive has been installed:
1. Insert the Seagate software diskette with EZ-Drive into the
diskette drive.
2. Type ez at the command line.
3. Go to the Main menu and select Installation Options. Press
ENTER.
4. Select Change Install Features and press ENTER.
