Chapter 3

Using Your Computer

This chapter briefly describes the following procedures for using
your computer:

Installing MS-DOS or another operating system

❏ Copying the Reference and Utility diskette files

❏ Using special keys on the keyboard

❏ Stopping a command or program

❏ Resetting the computer

❏ Using a power-on password

❏ Using disks and disk drives.

Installing MS-DOS or Another Operating

System

After you connect the components of your system and run the
Setup program, you must install the operating system on your
computer. If you are installing MS-DOS, follow the instructions

in your MS-DOS Installation Guide. If you are installing

another operating system, such as MS OS/2 or UNIX, see the
manual that comes with that system for instructions on

installing and using it. The instructions in this manual assume

that you are using MS-DOS with your computer.

Note

Be sure to make backup copies of your original operating

system diskettes.
