SETUP PROGRAM
Maintenance and Service Guide |
The COMPAQ personal computer uses a memory device that stores the current date, time, and system configuration. The SETUP program, in- cluded on both the ADVANCED DIAGNOSTICS and USER DIAGNOSTICS diskettes, enters this information into the memory device.
3.1 WHEN TO RUN SETUP
You need to run SETUP:
□When the COMPAQ personal computer is used for the first time.
□When the system configuration is changed.
□When certain options are added to the system including:
Coprocessor
Diskette drive
Fixed disk drive
Memory
Internal Modem
□If the system board or battery is discon- nected or replaced.
□If a system configuration error is detected during POST. In this situation, the system prompts you to run SETUP so that you can enter the correct information before continuing.
