boot up problems

[Rick Mead]

our computer boots up from the CD-ROM drive and we want it to boot up from the Hard drive. we have tried changeing the order of boot up but it doesnt seem to work. the CD-ROM light stays up so when the computer is up we cant use any CDS. i was wondering if you had any suggestions.
thank you

This is not right place for this question but Any way you first verify hard drive and CD-R jumper settings.if you want to boot from harddrive you can choose option for Hard-Drive Primary>Master and for CD-R Primary>slave
or
for Hard Drive -Primary>Master
then CD-R- Secondary>Master

ok

Rick,

first of all:
Welcome to the VMS forum, dedicated to the greatest OS in existence.

But, your question suggests that this is perhaps NOT the correct location for it.

Can you please specify "our computer" ?

And the label of the CD you try to boot from?

Proost.

Have one on me.

jpe

we never got a cd to be able to do that without the CD
