MAXTOR ATA HARD DRIVE INSTALLATION GUIDE
Installing a New Boot Drive (Windows 98, Me)
This section provides instructions for installing the hard drive in a new system as the boot drive or for replacing a failed boot drive in an existing system using the DOS version of MaxBlast. If your existing Windows boot drive is working properly, Maxtor recommends using the Windows version of MaxBlast instead. Insert the MaxBlast CD in the CD-ROM drive and restart the system. When MaxBlast asks if you would like to prepare the drive for use in your system, click Yes. Select your operating system, then choose easy installation and allow MaxBlast to partition and format the drive using the standard partitions option. Your hard drive is automatically partitioned to the largest capacity by default. The hard drive is assigned a single drive letter if installing Windows 98 or newer operating system. When finished partitioning and formatting the hard drive, eject all CDs or floppy disks and restart the system. If your system boots to a message: No OS found Insert the OS setup disk, then press any key. Insert your Windows boot diskette and press any key.
To boot from the MaxBlast CD, you may need to change the boot sequence or boot order settings in your system BIOS to "Floppy > CDROM > IDE-0" or "A, CDROM, C. " Depending on your BIOS type (AMI, Award, Phoenix), the boot sequence settings may be located on the main setup screen or under the BIOS FEATURES SETUP or ADVANCED CMOS SETUP menus. If your system cannot boot from a CD, you can create a bootable MaxBlast diskette by inserting the MaxBlast CD into a system running Windows and choosing Create MaxBlast Installation Diskette from the menu. If you have dual optical (CD/DVD) drives, try booting from the other optical drive.

The DOS version of MaxBlast does not currently support USB mouse or keyboard input unless supported by your system BIOS. If you have a USB keyboard and/or mouse, you may need to connect a PS/2 mouse or keyboard to your system temporarily to navigate through the program. MaxBlast for DOS can be operated from the keyboard using the Tab, Enter/Return, and arrow keys.

Select the option to start the computer with CD-ROM support so that Windows Setup can access the CD-ROM drive. After the system boot disk finishes loading, you should see the A:\ prompt. Above the prompt, you should also see a line saying Drive X: = Driver MSCD001 unit 0 where X is the drive letter assigned to the CD-ROM drive. Depending on how many devices are connected to the ATA/IDE cables, the assigned CD-ROM drive letter could be D, E, F, etc.
