at a Setup summary

screen. The Setup program stores the new settings and resets

the computer using the new configuration. If you have set a

password, you need to enter it at the key prompt. (See “Using

a Power-on Password” in Chapter 3 for instructions.) The

Operation Menu appears.

If you have just run Setup for the first time, remove the

Reference diskette from the drive and turn off your computer.

Then follow the instructions in your MS-DOS manual to install

the operating system. (If you are using a different operating

system, follow the installation instructions in that manual.)

Once you have installed MS-DOS, you should always boot the

computer from the hard disk or the MS-DOS Startup diskette

when you are finished running Setup. First remove the

Reference diskette from drive A. If you do not have a hard disk,

insert the Startup diskette. Then reset your computer to make

sure it performs all the commands in the CONFIG.SYS and

AUTOEXEC.BAT files.

If the computer displays an error message while it is starting

up, run the Setup program again and check the setting the error

message indicates. If the computer still displays an error

message after you check your Setup program settings, see

Appendix B or C, or ask your dealer for assistance.

Be sure to make a backup copy of your Reference diskette
