To run ESPEED, type the following at the MS-DOS command prompt and press (Enter:

ESPEED

You see the following messages:

Usage: ESPEED[/H][/L][/A]/High set High speed (no Auto)/Low set Low speed (no Auto) /Auto set Auto speed

These messages tell you the switches you should use to set the speed to high, low, or automatic. At the MS-DOS prompt, type the ESPEED command again and include the appropriate switch, such as the following:

ESPEED /A

(This command sets the processor speed to change to low speed automatically when the computer accesses a diskette.)

If you include the switch when you type the initial ESPEED command, the program changes the speed without displaying the command options.

The processor speed you set remains in effect until you change it again or until you turn off the computer or reset it with [F) [Alt) (Delete].
