Upgrade Suite CD is a bootable disk with EZ Gig II data transfer utility that can
copy hard drives without booting to the Windows operating system. To use
Upgrade Suite as a stand-alone utility, your Computer must be able to boot
from a CD-ROM, and the CD-ROM must be set as the first boot device in your
computer’s System BIOS.
NOTE: The System BIOS controls basic hardware functions in computer, and
is the first screen that appears when booting your computer (i.e. before the
Windows Startup Logo appears on screen). Consult your Computer’s User Manual
for instructions on how to enter the System BIOS and change the boot order.
To start EZ Gig II directly from the CD-ROM
1) Insert the Upgrade Suite CD into your CD-ROM Drive.
) Turn on the Computer and go immediately into the system BIOS
screen.
) Set the CD-ROM as the First Boot device. Save your changes and
Exit the BIOS to reboot the computer.
Helpful tip:
♦ Some newer computers display a “Boot Options” message during
startup. Pressing the boot options key allows the user to temporarily
change the boot-order of the system. Use this option to boot from the
CD-ROM without changing the BIOS settings. The actual keys to activate
this option will depend upon the manufacturer (some BIOS use the <F1>
key, others use the <ESC> key), and the boot option is only available for
a few seconds at startup before the BIOS falls back into the normal boot
order.
4) Once the BIOS is set correctly, the CD-ROM should boot-up the com-
puter and start the EZ Gig II software.
