Configuring the System

If you press the 'o' key now, control will return to the system's own processor. Otherwise, MCMaster will add its own memory to the memory count and then display the message:

Starting MCMaster

MCMaster start successful

This completes the installation of MCMaster in your PS/2 system. It should now be ready for operation. If it doesn't seem to be working, read the appropriate section in the Appendices for troubleshooting help. If all else fails, contact Kingston Technical Support at (714) 435-2639.

What's Next?

∙If you've been running "plain-vanilla" DOS applications, they will run as before, only faster.

∙If you're upgrading a 286-based system to a 486, there are a lot of software products out there that take advantage of the 386/486 architecture. Your PS/2 is now compatible with them.

∙If you've been running Windows 3.0 or 3.1 in "standard" 286 mode, there are a few extra steps you'll have to take before you can run Windows in 386 Enhanced mode. Please read the section on Windows in Appendix C.

∙And enjoy your "new" computer. This manual was prepared on a PS/2 Model 60 enhanced by an MCMaster. While it would certainly have been physically possible to do it without MCMaster, it would have been a lot more work to do so.

Please back up your MCMaster option diskette, as well as your IBM Reference diskette.
