Understanding the status line

The status line at the bottom of the control panel gives you messages about
the status of the PC hardware and software. Messages can include any of the
following:

m

DOS-compatibility card not present

Your computer’s system software did not

recognize the DOS-compatible card installed in your computer. Reinstall
the PC software according to the directions in Chapter 8.

If reinstalling the software doesn’t help, contact an Apple-authorized
service provider for assistance, or call Apple’s customer support hotline.
(The phone number for the hotline is in the service and support
information that came with your computer.)

m

PC Setup software not loaded

An error occurred during the start-up process

and the DOS environment won’t run.

m

PC is running

You’ve clicked Start PC and the card is active.

m

PC is shut down

The card is installed but not running. To start the card,

click Start PC, or select Auto-Start PC and restart the computer.

m

PC is turned off

The Off button at the top of the PC Setup control panel

is selected.

m

Not enough memory

Your computer must have at least 8 megabytes (MB)

of RAM installed, and the PC requires at least 2 MB of free RAM if you
don’t have a SIMM installed on the DOS-compatible card for the exclusive
use of the PC. Turn off the RAM disk, if you’re using one, in the Memory
control panel, and restart your Macintosh.
