ranslation mode is how sector addresses are translated. This parameter appeared because

in BIOS versions, there were limitations to the maximum address capacity of disks, which is

504 MB (1024 cylinders x 16 heads x 63 sectors x 512 bytes). There are two ways to

bypass this limitation: (1) switch from physical to logical sector addresses (LBA), (2) use

mathematics to reduce the number of addressed sectors (cylinders) and increase the

number of heads; this method is called Large Disk (Large). The simplest decision is to set

the value of this parameter to Auto.

If there are several hard disks connected to your motherboard, but you do not want

to use some of them at the moment, you have to set the Type of these disks to Not

Installed.

Parameters of hard disks can be set manually with the help of information provided

by the hard disk manufacturer on its case, but it is easier to use the IDE

autodetection utility that is usually included in modern BIOS versions.

The utility is sometimes a separate BIOS menu item and sometimes is included in

the standard CMOS setup menu.

Please note that in 0, «Appendix B. Hard disks and BIOS setup», we have described the

general details of

physical hard disk structure. Built-in IDE hard disk controls mask the

physical disk structure. As a result, the BIOS of the motherboard «sees»

logical cylinders,

heads and sectors. We are not

oin

to elaborate on this issue here, but knowin

about this

can sometimes be useful.

B.2.3 Arranging boot sequence, advanced CMOS setup menu

Aside from standard CMOS setup, BIOS menu usually has an advanced CMOS setup

item. Here you can adjust the boot sequence: C:; A:; CD-ROM:.

Please note that

boot sequence management differs for various BIOS versions, e.

. for

AMI BIOS, AWARDBIOS and brand-name hardware manufacturers.

Several years ago, the operating system boot sequence was hard-coded into the

BIOS. An operating system could be booted either from a diskette (drive A:), or

from the hard disk C:. That was the sequence in which the BIOS queried external

drives: if drive A: was ready, BIOS attempted to boot an operating system from a

diskette. If the drive was not ready or there was no system area on diskette, BIOS

tried to boot an operating system from hard disk C:.

At present, BIOS allows booting operating systems not only from diskettes or hard

disks, but also from CD-ROMs, DVDs and other devices. If there are several hard

disks installed in your computer labeled as C:, D:, E:, and F:, you can adjust the

boot sequence so that an operating system is booted from, for example, disk E:. In

this case, you have to set the boot sequence to look like E:, CD-ROM:, A:, C:, D:.

This does not mean that booting is done from the first disk in this list; it only means that

the first attempt to boot an operatin

system is to boot it from this disk. There may be no

operatin

system on disk E:, or it can be inactive. In this case, BIOS queries the next drive

in the list. Errors can happen during booting, see B.2.5 «Hard disk initialization errors».

The BIOS numbers disks according to the order in which they are connected to IDE

controllers (primary master, primary slave, secondary master, secondary slave);

next go the SCSI hard disks.

This order is broken if you change the boot sequence in BIOS setup. If, for

example, you specify that booting has to be done from hard disk E:, numbering
