Epson 286 PLUS Manuel D’Utilisation

The Reference diskette contains the following VGA utilities:

VGAMODE

Provides 132-column text in text-based

programs such as WordStar’s’ and

WordPerfect?

SET-VGA

Sets the built-in VGA adapter to emulate

the operation of a variety of graphics

adapters.

SNOOZE

Turns off your VGA display when you
have not used your computer for a

specified period of time.

If you have a hard disk, you should copy the VGA utility files

from your Reference diskette to your hard disk and run the

programs from there. This section describes how to copy the files

and include a pathname for the files in your AUTOEXEC.BAT

file. Once you have copied the files and modified

AUTOEXEC.BAT, read the sections below that describe how

to use each utility you copied to your hard disk.

Note

If you do not have a hard disk, you can skip this section and

go on to the sections below about using each utility. Keep in
mind that you’ll need to insert the Reference diskette in drive

A and log onto drive A each time you want to run one of the

utilities.

Follow these steps to copy the utility files to your hard disk:

1.

If necessary, turn on your computer.

2.

Log onto the root directory of your hard disk.
