Changing the CPU Speed
Your computer’s processor can operate at two speeds: High
(33 MHz) or Low (8 MHz). At the higher speed, the computer
performs all tasks faster. You may need to select the slower
speed, however, to run some copy-protected programs or a
program that has a specific timing requirement.
Unless you change the default setting in SETUP, whenever you
turn on or reset the computer, it starts up in Hi h speed. To
change the speed temporarily, first press
to turn
Num Lock (and its indicator light) on. Then, to change to Low
speed, press
When you want to change
back to Hi h speed, make sure Num Lock is on, and press
Note
You must press or on the embedded numeric
keypad.
If you want your computer to always start at Low speed, you
can change the default setting through SETUP. See Chapter 2
for instructions.
