If your system is configured to automatically start Microsoft Windows or a word processing program, or has a different operating system, you will see the first menu or screen of that program displayed at this point. If your system is not configured to start like this, you will see the MS-DOS operating prompt, such as C:\> or A:\>, each time you turn on the computer.

Now follow the instructions below to configure your system using the SETUP program.

Turning Off the Computer

Whenever you turn off your system, follow these steps:

1.Save your data and exit any application program you are using.

2. Check the hard disk drive

light and the diskette drive light(s)

to make sure they are not

on. Do not turn off the computer

if a drive light is on, because you can damage the drive or lose data.

3. Remove any diskette(s) from the diskette drive(s).

4.Press the power button to turn off the computer and then turn off the monitor, printer, and any other peripheral devices.

Running the SETUP Program

Be sure to run SETUP the first time you use your computer, so you can verify or update the configuration information. You also may need to run SETUP again later if you change your configuration.
