Entering Keyboard Commands

You can change the processor speed by entering one of the

commands shown in the following table.

Speed setting commands

To enter these commands, hold down the

Ctrl

key and the

Alt

key simultaneously and then press the 2, +,

or - key.

Use the + or - key on the numeric keypad or the

or 2 key

on the main keyboard.

Note

You can use the commands listed above while you are

running a program. However, if the program uses one of

the same commands for another function, you cannot use

it to change the processor speed. For example, if you are
running a program that uses the

Ctrl Alt

- command to

move the cursor, you cannot enter Ctrl

Alt

- to change the

processor speed to low. Another alternative is to use the
ESPEED program, described below.

The speed setting remains in effect until you press the

RESET

button or turn off the computer, or until you change it again

using the SETUP program, another keyboard command, or
the ESPEED program.
