If you have not installed any additional memory in your
computer (beyond the IMB of on-board memory) , there is no
memory available for you to use as expanded memory.
If you have installed more memory, the total amount appears in
the information window; you can define how much you want to
use as expanded memory in units of 5 12KB. For example, if you
have installed an additional 1MB of memory, for a system total
of 2MB, you can specify either 512KB or 1024KB to be
expanded memory.
Once you have defined the amount of expanded memory
through SETUP, you must also use a memory manager to
convert the computer’s extended memory to expanded. See
“Using Expanded Memory Beyond 1MB” in Chapter 4.
Setting the Password
The SETUP program lets you set a password to control who can
use your system. This is an optional feature, and if you do not
want to define a password for your computer’ skip this section.
Once you set a password through SETUP, you must enter it
every time you turn on your computer or reset it by pressing the
RESET button. If you do not enter it correctly, the computer
does not respond to your keyboard entries. Therefore’ if you
define a password, be sure to remember it or write it down and
keep it in a safe place.
To set a password, move the cursor to the
Password
option.
Next to it, you see either an empty space or the words Not
ins t a 11 e d
. (If you have already run SETUP and entered a
password, you see the current password.) If
Not
installed
appears, press
Page Up
or
Page Down
to display the blank
space.
