Setting the Video Display Type

The Video System option allows you to define the type of

adapter you are using. Because you connected your monitor to

the computer’s built-in VGA port, select EGA/VGA.

You must use a VGA monitor with this computer; therefore,

always select a video display type of EGA/VGA.

Note

You cannot install an optional video card in this computer.

Checking System Memory

Your computer comes with 4MB of RAM on a SIMM. MS-DOS@

and application programs that run under MS-DOS use the first

640KB of memory. You can use the memory above 1MB as

extended memory.

When you boot your system, the system BIOS detects the type

of RAM and updates the total memory size automatically. You

see the memory configuration displayed in the System

Memory and Extended Memory fields on this SETUP screen.

You cannot change these values; if they are not what you

expect them to be, check your jumper settings as described in

Chapter 4. Also, check that the SIMM(s) are securely seated in

their sockets.

Setting the Diskette Drive(s)

On your system, diskette drive A is the 3.5-inch high-density

drive installed in the lower drive bay on your system. You may

also have another drive of a different size or capacity; this is

drive B. Check the settings for both drives and correct them if

necessary.
