Accessing the Set Up Screen
You can customize many of the settings of your system so that your TravelMate 2000 always powers up with
those settings. Normally, you should access the Set Up screen when the MS-DOS prompt is displayed,
although you can access the Set Up screen from an application program.
Accessing the Set Up Screen from MS-DOS
You can enter the Set Up screen when the MS-DOS prompt is displayed by pressing the
Set Up
key.
Pressing the
Set-Up
key executes the SET-UP command in the \DOS directory, which displays the Set Up
screen. If you access the Set Up screen from the MS-DOS prompt, the computer does not reboot when you
exit the Set Up screen.
Accessing the Set Up Screen Directly
You can access the Set Up screen directly from any program by holding down the
Ctrl
and
Alt
keys and
pressing the
Set Up
key. When you access the Set Up screen this way the computer reboots upon leaving the
Set Up screen, which clears memory.
Caution: You should avoid pressing the Ctrl-Alt-Set Up keys when you are in an
application program. The computer restart when it exits the Set Up screen, which erases the
contents of memory.
