Introduction

You can use the REFRATE program (under Windows 95), the WDSETUP program

(under MS-Windows) or the SET-VGA program (under MS-DOS) to set the screen

resolution. Detailed information is provided in the corresponding help.

!You may set only those resolutions and refresh rates specified in the

"Technical data" section of the monitor description. Otherwise you may

damage your monitor. If you are in any doubt, contact your sales office or

customer service.

Important notes

!Be sure to read this page carefully and note the information before you

open the PC.

Please note the information provided in the chapter "Safety" in the

Operating Manual of the PC.

Incorrect replacement of the lithium battery may lead to a risk of explosion.

It is therefore essential to observe the instructions in the section "Add-on

modules - Replacing the lithium battery".

The lithium battery must be replaced with an identical battery or a battery

type recommended by the manufacturer (CR2032).

Do not throw lithium batteries into the trashcan. Your vendor or dealer or

their authorized representatives will take used batteries back free of charge

so that they can be recycled or disposed of in the proper manner.

ADVARSEL

!Lithiumbatteri - Eksplosionsfare ved fejlagtig håndtering. Udskiftning må kun

ske med batteri af samme fabrikat og type. Lever det brugte batteri tilbage

til leverandøren.

ADVARSEL

!Eksplosjonsfare ved feilaktig skifte av batteri. Benytt samme batteritype eller

en tilsvarende type anbefalt av apparatfabrikanten. Brukte batterier

kasseres i henhold til fabrikantens instruksjoner.

VARNING

!Eksplosionsfara vid felaktigt batteribyte. Använd samma batterityp eller en

ekvivalent typ som rekommenderas av apparattillverkarenfabrikanten.

Kassera använt batteri enligt fabrikantens instruktion.

VAROITUS

!Paristo voi räjähtää, jos se on virheellisesti asennettu. Vaihda paristo

ainoastaan laitevalmistajan suosittelemaan tyyppiin. Hävitä käytetty paristo

valmistajan ohjeiden mukaisesti.

A26361-D842-Z120-6-7619 5

Important Notes

Modules with electrostatic sensitive devices (ESD) may be identified by labels.

When you handle modules fitted with ESDs, you must observe the following points

under all circumstances:

– When you handle modules fitted with ESDs, you must always discharge yourself

(e.g. by touching a grounded object) before working.

– The equipment and tools you use must be free of static charges.

– Pull out the power plug before inserting or pulling out modules containing ESDs.

– Always hold modules with ESDs by their edges.

– Never touch pins or conductors on modules fitted with ESDs.

Notes on software

Program with time loops

Problems can occur with programs in which time loops have been implemented

through software loops. This applies in particular to older programs which were

written for 8 MHz processors.

SCO UNIX on devices with Pentium or OverDrive processor

Please note the following:

If you use one of the processors mentioned above, the Adaptec-SCSI controller

cannot be addressed under SCO-UNIX 3.2.4 and ODT 2.0.

To solve this problem, you can order from SCO a set of SLS (Support Level

Supplement) floppies (consisting of 3 floppy disks) under the number uod361,

free of charge, or contact one of our IT Service Shops.

The problem no longer exists in the new releases of SCO-UNIX 3.2.4.2 and

ODT 2.1.

There will be no support for older versions (SCO-UNIX versions lower than 3.2.4

and ODT versions lower than 2.0).

Settings in BIOS Setup

The BIOS Setup menu allows you to set your hardware configuration and system

functions. In addition, the BIOS Setup displays technical information on the PC's

configuration.

Pressing the function key F1 provides help information on each entry field.

When it is supplied, the PC is set to factory default settings which you can alter in

the BIOS Setup menus. Any changes you make take effect as soon as you save the

settings and quit the BIOS Setup.

The Operating Manual describes how to call the setup menu and change menu

entries.

You can select the following settings in the BIOS Setup:

Main - system functions

Advanced - advanced system configuration

Security - security features

Power - power-management features

Exit - save and quit

The various menus are described below with all setting options. Since the

isetting options depend on your PC's hardware configuration, some of them

may not be offered in the BIOS setup.

System settings - Main menu

In the Main menu you can set up the following:

– Time (in the field marked System Time)

– Date (in the field marked System Date)

– Floppy disk drive (in the field marked Diskette A or Diskette B)

– Hard disk drive (in the submenus of Hard Disk)

– System boot (in the submenus of Boot Options)

– Display device (in the field marked Video Display)

The System Time field and the System Date field show the time and date respectively

according to the PC. The time is shown in the format hours:minutes:seconds and the

date is shown in the format month/day/year. You can move the cursor within the

Time and Date fields (e.g. from hour to minute) using the tabulator key.

!If the settings in the System Time and System Date fields are frequently wrong

when you power up the computer, the lithium battery is dead. Change the

battery as described in "Add-on modules - Replacing the lithium battery").

Main Settings in BIOS Setup

Hard disk drives - Hard Disk 1 to Hard Disk 4

call the submenu to make corresponding settings of the IDE hard disk drive.

You should change the default settings only if you are connecting an

iadditional IDE drive to one of the two IDE connectors.

The maximum transfer rate of two IDE drives connected to the same

connector is determined by the slower of the two. Fast hard disks should

therefore be connected to the first IDE connector and identified as Hard

Disk 1 or Hard Disk 2; slower hard disks or other IDE drives (e.g.

CD ROM drives) should be connected to the second IDE connector and

identified as Hard Disk 3 or Hard Disk 4.

The following description of the setting options for Hard Disk 1 also applies to

Hard Disk 2, Hard Disk 3 and Hard Disk 4. The default settings depend on the

installed drive.

Settings in BIOS Setup Main

Only if you have installed a new IDE hard disk drive, you should mark the Autotype

Hard Disk field and press Enter. This has the effect of setting the optimum values

for the IDE hard disk drive. You can change these values if you set the Type field to

User.

Type - Hard Disk Type

This field is used to specify the type of hard disk drive installed.

None You cannot change the hard disk parameters (Cylinders, Heads,

Sector/Track and Write Precomp). Either an IDE drive has not been

installed, or the values have been set with Autotype Hard Disk.

1 to 39 The hard disk parameters (Cylinders, Heads, etc.) are preset.

Auto If the hard disk supports this mode, the setup menu reads the hard

disk parameters from the disk itself and sets them automatically.

You do not need to select the parameters yourself.

User You can enter the hard disk parameters (Cylinders, Heads etc.)

yourself.

If you have set the hard disk parameters with Autotype Hard Disk,

you can only reduce the values.

Examples of user-defined entries (IDE drives):

hard disk hard disk capacity in Mbyte

Sectors 38 48 46 63 63 63

Write Precomp None None None None None None

Cylinders, Heads, Sectors/Track, Write Precomp - hard disk parameter

These hard disk parameters are set in accordance with the IDE hard disk drive. If

you want to change the hard disk parameters manually, set the Type field to User.
