Changing

the Processor Speed

Your computer’s processor can operate at two speeds: high

or low. High speed is the highest speed at which your

microprocessor is capable of running, such as 33 MHz. Low

speed simulates an 8 MHz processor to provide compatibility

with older application programs.

You can also set the computer to automatic speed which

switches your computer’s processor from high to low speed

when it accesses a diskette drive.

Note

When your computer is operating at high

speed, the TURBO

light on the

front

panel is lit. It is off when the computer is

operating at low speed.

You should use high speed for almost everything you do

because your programs will work faster. However, certain

application programs have specific timing requirements and

can run only at the slower speed. See your software manual to

determine if this is the case.
