Note

You can use the commands listed above while you are

running a program. However, if that program uses one of

these commands for another function, you cannot use it to

change the processor speed. For example, if the program

uses the

command to move the cursor, you

cannot enter

to change the processor speed

to low. Another alternative is to use the ESPEED program,

described below.

Using the ESPEED Program

ESPEED allows you to change the processor speed to high or

low, or set the speed to change automatically. This method is

convenient if your application program does not recognize the

key commands or if you want to include the command

in a batch file.

The ESPEED program is provided with your system on the

Reference 1 diskette. If you do not have a hard disk, insert your

Reference 1 diskette in drive A and log onto drive A before you

enter the command to start the program.

If you have a hard disk from which you are running MS-DOS,

copy the file ESPEED.EXE from your Reference 1 diskette onto

your hard disk and run the program from there.

To run the ESPEED program, type the following at the

command prompt and press

ESPEED
