current palette, press FN-ALT-ESC. Each time you press
FN-ALT-ESC, the display changes to the next palette (P0

want the computer to load a particular palette at start up,
include the
PAL command in your AUTOEXEC.BAT file. For
example, to start up with user palette 1 loaded, include the
command
PAL P4 in your AUTOEXEC.BAT file.
