Some copy-protected programs require
the
computer to run at
low speed while accessing the program on a diskette. These
programs also usually require you to leave a key disk-the
diskette that contains the copy protection-in the diskette
drive. If you use a copy-protected program, you can change
the
speed to low to access the diskette and return it to
high speed
when you are finished.
You can
change
the processor speed temporarily by entering
one of the following commands from the numeric keypad on
your keyboard:
D
To
select
low speed, press
Ctrl Alt -.
(Hold down the
Ctrl
key and the
Alt
key simultaneously and then press the - key
on the numeric keypad.) The speed light turns off.
P
To select
high
speed, hold down
the Ctrl
and
Alt
keys and
press +
on
the numeric keypad. The speed light comes on.
Note
You can use the commands listed above while you are
running a program. However, if the program uses one of
these commands for another function, you cannot use it to
change the processor speed. You can, however, change the
processor speed through the SETUP program.
The speed setting remains in effect until you do the following:
P
Reset your computer
D
Turn off your computer
Q
Change the speed with another keyboard command
0
Change the speed setting in the SETUP program.
