Casio IT-2000W manual Supported Software, MS-DOS Main Part, Device Drivers and System Files

1.2.2Supported Software

The software used with this terminal can be divided into two categories: the system software that includes the BIOS, OS, and device drivers and the user software such as the development tools. The system software is stored on the DINOR FLASH ROM (1 MB), and the user software is supported from the SDK CD-ROM (version 4.0) supplied by Casio at free of charge. The following paragraphs describe the software.

BIOS

The BIOS program is stored in the DINOR FLASH ROM. 256 KB of DINOR FLASH ROM is allocated specifically as the BIOS storage area.

The BIOS of this terminal consists of the standard PC/AT BIOS section, PEN BIOS for supporting the touch panel, extension BIOS for supporting devices inherent to this terminal, and APM BIOS for attain the low-power consumption capability.

MS-DOS Main Part

The main part of the MS-DOS Ver. 6.22 is stored in drive (C:).

In drive (C:) 768 KB of memory area in the DINOR FLASH ROM (1 MB) is allocated. Because of the capacity limitation, only the essential MS-DOS files are stored in drive (C:). Therefore, if using an MS-DOS file that is not included in the main part, copy it from the Backup CD-ROM (title on CD-ROM: MS-DOS version 6.22 Software) to the F-ROM drive (D:) or RAM disk (A:).

For information about each MS-DOS file refer to an MS-DOS manual, commonly available at book stores.
