Copying the Reference and Utility Files

If you have a hard disk, you’ll probably want to copy some of the
files on your Reference and Utility diskettes to the hard disk.

This allows you to run the programs directly from your hard disk

instead of having to insert a diskette. Use the COPY command

(described in your MS-DOS Reference Manual) to copy the

following files from the Reference diskette to your hard disk:

AFDD.EXE

ESPEED.EXE

HDSIT.COM

HDSIT.VER

ROMBIOS.COM

The Reference diskette also contains files for the Setup program
and the System diagnostics program. However, you should
always run these programs from the Reference diskette in

drive A; so do not copy these files to your hard disk.

The Utility diskettes contain VGA drivers that allow you to

display graphics in certain high-resolution modes. If you want to

use any of these extended modes on your VGA monitor, you’ll

need to copy any VGA files you need to your hard disk as well.
See Appendix A for a list of the VGA drivers and utilities and

instructions for using them.

Note

Be sure to make backup copies of your Reference and Utility

diskettes. See your MS-DOS Reference Manual for

instructions.
