Whenever you are in the SETUP program, the bottom of the

screen lists the keys you can press to perform specific functions.

Displaying System Information

The SETUP program provides a system information screen that

lists the following:

Processor type

Coprocessor type (if you’ve installed a 486DX

microprocessor upgrade)

Reserved memory

BIOS version number

Addresses for video mode, serial ports, and printer ports

Option ROMs (if any ROM exists on your installed option

cards).

To see this information, press F2 from either of the SETUP

screens.

Setting the Date and Time

The real-time clock in your computer continuously tracks the

date and time-even when the computer is turned off. Once

you set the System Time and System Date options using

SETUP, you should not need to change them, unless you adjust

the time for daylight savings or other seasonal adjustments.

(The computer automatically changes the date for leap years.)

Use to move the cursor to the value you want to

change. Then press + or - until you see the value you want.
