Setting the Active Partition

The Set Active Partition feature allows you to make a primary partition the active

(bootable) partition. Only one primary partition can be active at a time. To be bootable

under most operating systems, a primary partition must be located on the first (master)

drive, and it must contain an operating system. When your computer boots, it scans the

partition table of the first drive to find the active partition, then boots from that partition.

WARNING!

Before you set an active partition, be sure it is bootable. If it is not bootable

or if you are not sure, locate the boot disk you created when you installed

Drive Image. If you restart your computer and it does not boot normally,

you must boot from the floppy disk, run Drive Image from the program disk

you created during Drive Image install, and set a different partition active.

Refer to “Drive Information Displayed on the Screen (Partition Map)” on

page 56 for explanations of the Drive Image screen that may also help you

determine if your partition is bootable.

At the Drive Image DOS main screen, click Tools

➤

Set Active Partition.

The Set Active Partition window appears.

Select a primary partition that is not currently active, then click Set Active.

The status of the selected partition changes to “Active.”

Click Close.

Click Exit to exit Drive Image, then reboot your computer.
