UIf you want to use any of the memory on your card as expanded memory, see “Using Expanded Memory Beyond 640KB” in Chapter 4.

Also see “Post-installation Setup,” below, for more information on setting up your computer for use with an option card.

Post-installation Setup

After you install or remove options such as memory modules, a math coprocessor, or a disk drive, you need to run the SETUP program to update the computer’s configuration information. For example, if you add a hard disk drive, you need to let the computer know the type of drive you have installed. See Chapter 2 for instructions.

If you replaced the battery for the real-time clock and CMOS RAM, you must run SETUP to reconfigure your system and reset the clock. See Chapter 2.

Note

If you installed additional extended memory and want to use any of it as expanded memory, see “Using Expanded Memory Beyond 640KB” in Chapter 4 for instructions.

If you install a hard disk drive that has never received a hardware level format (such as some non-Epson hard disk drives), you need to format the disk. Check the manual that came with your drive, and then, if necessary, follow the instructions in Appendix C to format your new hard disk.

If you have added a hard disk drive and you want to load MS-DOS or another operating system from that drive, you need to install the operating system on it. See your MS-DOS Installation Guide or the documentation that came with your operating system for instructions.
