There are different types of copy-protected programs.

Depending on the type you have, you may or may not want

to set the processor to automatic speed. Follow these

guidelines:

If you are using a copy-protected program that can run
only on a diskette or that requires a key disk, try to start
the program on high speed. If this works, you do not
need to set the speed to change automatically. If you
can’t load the program on high, set the speed to change

automatically.

If you are using a copy-protected program that does not
require a key disk but requires a special procedure to
install it on a hard disk, set the speed to low while you
are installing the program. Once it is installed, set the

speed to high, where you should be able to leave it while

you load and run the program.

If this does not work, try installing

and loading the

program at low speed and then change to high speed to
run it. Do not set the speed to change automatically.

There are three ways to change the processor speed:

Run the SETUP program

Enter a keyboard command

Run the ESPEED program.

If you frequently use programs that require the processor to

operate at low speed or require the automatic speed change

when your computer is accessing a diskette, use SETUP to

change the processor speed. See Chapter 2 for instructions.

If you use these programs only occasionally, you should use

the keyboard commands or the ESPEED program (described
below) to change the processor speed.
