Setting the Date and Time

The real-time clock in your computer continuously tracks the date and time-even when the computer is turned off. Once you set the date and time using SETUP, you should not need to change them, unless you need to adjust the time for daylight savings or other seasonal adjustments. (The computer automatically changes the date for leap years.)

Use the cursor arrow keys to position the cursor over the

 

portion of the date or time you want to change. Press

or

to modify the date or time. The time parameter uses a 24-hour clock. For example, 5 p.m. is shown as 17.

Setting the Diskette Drive(s)

Your system probably came with one diskette drive installed. You may also have another drive of a different size or capacity. The SETUP menu offers five possible selections for your diskette drives (A and B):

q360KB, 5.25-inch

q1.2MB, 5.25-inch

q720KB, 3.5-inch

q1.44MB, 3.5-inch

qNot Installed.

Check the settings for both drives and correct them if necessary. (If you have only one diskette drive or if you install a tape drive in the lower drive bay, select Not Installed for drive B.)

If you install a combination (dual) diskette drive, the top drive is A and the bottom drive is B.
