Setting the time and date
The real-time clock in your computer continuously tracks the
date and time—even when the computer is turned off. Once
you set the System Time and System Date options, you
should not need to change them, unless you adjust the time for
daylight savings or a different time zone. (The computer
automatically changes the date for leap years.)
Setting the video display type
The Video System option allows you to define the type of
display you are using. If you have connected a VGA or SVGA
monitor to the computer’s built-in VGA port, select EGA/VGA.
If you connected a monitor that doesn‘t support VGA to a
video adapter card installed in your system, select either the
CGA 80X25 or the Monochrome option. If you installed a
video adapter card, make sure you disable the on-board SVGA
controller by setting jumpers JP31, JP32, and JP33 to the Off
position. (See Chapter 4 for information on setting jumpers.)
Checking system memory
When you boot your system, the system BIOS updates the
memory size automatically. You see the memory configuration
displayed in the System Memory and Extended Memory
fields on this SETUP screen.
You cannot change these values; if they are not what you
expect them to be, check that the SIMM(s) are securely seated
in their sockets, as described in Chapter 4.
Setting the diskette drive(s)
On your system, diskette drive A is the 3.5-inch, high-density
drive installed in the computer. You may also have another
drive of a different size or capacity; this is drive B. Check the
settings for both drives and correct them if necessary.
