Changing the Processor Speed

Your computer’s processor can operate at two speeds: fast (the speed of your microprocessor) or slow (8 MHz). The slow speed is available to provide compatibility with older application programs.

When your computer is operating at fast speed, the speed light (labeled TURBO) on the front panel is on. When the computer is operating at slow speed, the light is off.

You should use fast speed for almost everything you do because your programs will work faster. However, certain application programs have specific timing requirements and can run only at the slower speed. See your software manual to determine if this is the case.

Some copy-protected programs require the computer to run at slow speed while accessing the program on a diskette. These programs also usually require you to leave a key disk-thediskette that contains the copy protection-in the diskette drive. If you use a copy-protected program, you can change the speed to slow to access the diskette and return it to fast speed when you are finished.
