LS/VS 550 OWNER’S HANDBOOK 3/21
In Windows for Workgroups
Changing the monitor settings is done via Windows Setup. In the
Main group, select the
Windows Setup
item. The Windows Setup
window will appear. Select
Change System Settings
from the
Options
menu. A list of all major monitor manufacturers and
models, including all current Apricot monitors appears.
You maybe prompted to insert Windows for Workgroups disk(s) in
the floppy drive. You will need to use the disk imaging utility
provided to make a set of Windows for Workgroups disks.
After you have inserted the disk(s) requested you will need to restart
Windows in order for the new settings to take effect.
For further detailed information please refer to the Windows for
Workgroups documentation and online help.
Software Back up
Apricot computers normally arrive with the operating system pre-
installed on the hard disk, in the
C:\WINDOWS
directory. The
hard disk also contains a complete set of video display drivers,
although initially the computer is configured to use the standard
VGA Windows driver. Additional software may be pre-installed by
your supplier.
We recommend that you copy or
back up
any pre-installed software
soon after setting up the system. This is particularly important for
systems which are supplied without installation diskettes for the
software on the hard disk. A back up copy will safe guard the pre-
installed software against loss if the hard disk fails or if you
accidentally overwrite or delete files.
♦
A disk imaging utility is provided with Windows 95 and
Windows for Workgroups. This allows you to create
installation diskettes for the operating system, and some other
software, from disk images pre-installed on the hard disk. See
the utilitys on-line help for more information.
