Configuring the Computer for the
Software
Some programs require you to modify the way
the computer operates to ensure compatibility.
Processing
Speed
Some older applications cannot execute
at the higher speeds available with the
computer. If the user’s manual for the
program indicates a maximum
processing speed, you can use the
SPEED
utility to reduce the
CPU
to the
required speed. You can include it as
part of a batch file that runs the
program.
RAM
Your computer has 8 MB of memory.
This is sufficient to run most software.
For improved operation, you may want
to install additional
RAM
(refer to
Chapter 4 for information on upgrading
your memory).
