Windows NT)’ into the diskette drive.
4.
Display the command prompt screen of the DOS full-screen display:
•
If Windows is installed, open the DOS prompt from the Program
Manager to display the DOS full-screen.

command prompt of OS/2.
•
If only DOS is installed, the command prompt is displayed when the
system is started.

At the command prompt, type ‘A:’ and press ENTER.

If the screen flickers,
repeat the setup several
times until the flicker is
