QUICK START GUIDE

Starting the computer

♦Press the POWER button to turn on the computer.

♦Turn on the monitor as described in itsUser Guide.

The colour of the Power Mode light turns from red to

green to show that the computer is now working.

Suspending the computer

Once Windows has started, you can give the POWER

button a brief press to suspend the computer when you

aren’t using it. Alternatively, you can click the Start button

in the Windows taskbar, then click Suspend.

To wake up the computer, you have to press the POWER

button again – just moving the mouse or using the

keyboard won’t work.

While the computer is suspended its processor stops, its

hard disk stops spinning and the monitor goes blank,

but none of your files are lost.

In Suspend mode the Power Mode light is yellow.

Note

Future versions of Windows will allow you to redefine the

POWER button so that when you press it the operating system

shuts down and the PC goes directly into Off mode.

Automatic power saving

During periods of inactivity the computer automatically

reduces the power consumption of idle components. For

example, the monitor screen may go blank. This power-

reduced state is known as Standby mode (the Power Mode

light stays green). If the inactivity is prolonged the

computer goes into full Suspend mode (the Power Mode

light is yellow).

While in Standby mode you can move the mouse or press

any keyboard key to resume working. Once the computer

goes into Suspend mode only thePOWER button can wake

it.

You can adjust automatic power saving with the Power

Management program, which is provided as part of the

Easy Manager software collection.

QUICK START GUIDE

Shutting down the computer

To shut down the computer safely, do the following:

1. Wait until all the activity indicators on the front

bezel show ‘not busy’.

2. Turn off any attached peripherals, except for the

monitor and other peripherals that are designed to

be kept on permanently.

3. Click theStart button in theWindows taskbar, then

click Shut Down. Select Shutdown the computer

and click Yes.

The Power Mode light goes from green to red.

Note that you do not have to press the POWER button if

Windows is running.

You don’t have to turn off the monitor

Because the monitor gets its power from the computer, once

you turn the monitor on you should never need to turn it

off, except to move or open up the computer.

Emergency shut down

In exceptional circumstances, you can shut down your

PC without shutting down Windows first. To do this,

press and hold down the POWER button for at least four

seconds.

The computer also shuts itself down if you press the

POWER button in MS-DOS or before Windows starts.

Make sure it is an emergency!

In an emergency shut down, you may lose any recent changes

made to the files you are currently working on.The Microsoft

ScanDisk program will run automatically when the

computer next starts, to check for disk errors.

Energy Star

The aim of these various power modes is to cut your

electricity bill and conserve resources. Energy Star is an

internationally recognised standard for such energy-

efficient computer systems.

Your computer will always meet the Energy Star standard

in Suspend mode, when the Power Mode light isyellow.

QUICK START GUIDE

Registering Windows 95

Your computer has the MicrosoftWindows 95 operating

system already in place or pre-installed, so that it is ready

for you when you turn on the computer.

The first time you turn on the computer you must tell

Windows 95 your name (and the name of the company

for which you work, if applicable) and agree to the legal

terms and conditions of the Windows 95 Licence

Agreement.

Windows 95 then spends a few minutes analysing your

computer and configuring itself to take full advantage of

your computer’s components.

During the process, you will need to enter your unique

Windows 95 serial number. You will find this on the

Microsoft Certificate of Authenticity which forms part

of your Windows documentation. Remember to keep

this certificate safe for future use.

Windows 95 also offers you the opportunity to install a

printer. However, you do not have to install a printer at

this time if you don’t want to.

You only register once

All of this only happens the first time you turn on your

computer. After that Windows 95 starts normally, except

that you may be reminded if you haven’t made any back-up

diskettes yet.

QUICK START GUIDE

Electronic Fingerprinting

Electronic Fingerprinting allows you to ‘brand’ your

computer by storing personal information in its

permanent memory. If you include your name, address

and phone number this will aid the police if your

computer is stolen.

The Apricot Electronic Fingerprinting program appears

every time you start Windows 95 until you have branded

the computer. If you don’t brand your computer

promptly, someone else might do it before you!

After you have entered your details you are prompted to

set abranding password.This password will be requested

if you ever need to run the Electronic Fingerprinting

program again to change the branding information (for

example, if you change address).

Optionally, for extra security, you can decide that this

same password is requested every time the computer is

turned on, or every time the mains power supply is

interrupted.

If you forget your branding password, you can use a

specialfall-back password instead.The fall-back password

is a 12-digit number that is unique to your computer. It

is displayed only once, the first time you set a branding

password.

Click the Help button in Electronic Fingerprinting for

more information.

Be careful

Do not turn off the computer while using the Electronic

Fingerprinting program. It might corrupt your computer’s

memory.

Write down the fall-back password

The fall-back password is displayed only once.You must make

a note of the password immediately, because you will never

see it again.There is a page at the end of this manual where

you can write it down.

QUICK START GUIDE

Increasing the resolution and colours displayed by your monitor

At first, Windows 95 is configured for a standard

monitor setting (640 by 480 pixels in a maximum of

256 different colours) so that Windows 95 is sure to

display correctly whatever monitor you have.

However, Mitsubishi Electric’s Apricot monitors can

do much better than this standard setting.You should

therefore change the display setting to get the best

performance from your system.

1. Right-click with the mouse while pointing at

the background of the Windows 95 desktop,

then select Properties from the pop-up menu.

2. Click the Settings tab of the Display Properties

dialog.

3. You can now select the Display Area (resolution)

and Colour Palette (number of colours). We

suggest at least 800 by 600 pixels in 256 colours.

Tips

You may have to specify the make and model of your monitor

before you can increase the resolution. In this case, click the

Advanced Properties button on the Settings tab.

You can get an even better display by upgrading your

computer’s video memory from 2 to 4 Mbytes. Ask your

Mitsubishi Electric PC supplier for details.

QUICK START GUIDE

Infotrade Internet - The Internet service from Mitsubishi Electric

Hint

Although we recommend the Infotrade Internet service, and

have made it very easy for Apricot PC users to subscribe to

it, there are other possibilities. On the Windows 95 desktop

is an icon for The Microsoft Network, which is the on-line

service provided by Microsoft itself. You can find setup

programs for other on-line service providers in the On-line

Services folder (also on the desktop).

By connecting your computer to the phone network,

you can use your computer as an answerphone and fax

machine. You can also access the Internet, and in

particular the World Wide Web (WWW).

To get you started, we have provided the Infotrade

Internet service (this offer applies only in the United

Kingdom). Infotrade is a subsidiary of Mitsubishi

Electric, the makers of your Apricot PC.

Details of the Infotrade Internet offer are given on the

promotional leaflet that came with your computer.

Infotrade also offers a variety of personal finance services.

These services are entirely optional and separate from

the Internet service. To find out more, double-click the

Infotrade Internet Help icon on the Windows 95

desktop.
