Backing-up the pre-installed software
Improving your display settings
Apricot PCs arrive with a pre-installed copy of Windows 95,
Windows NT or Windows for Workgroups. Additional software
may be pre-installed at the factory or by your Mitsubishi Electric
PC supplier.
We strongly recommend that you copy or 'back-up' any pre-installed
software soon after setting up the system. This is particularly
important for systems that are supplied without installation
diskettes for the software on the hard disk. A back up copy will
safeguard the pre-installed software against loss if the hard disk fails
or if you accidentally overwrite or delete files.
♦
The Microsoft Create System Disks utility (Windows 95) or
the Apricot Disk Maker utility (Windows NT or Windows for
Workgroups) allows you to create installation diskettes from
disk images pre-installed on the hard disk.
♦
To back up other pre-installed software (and your own files)
use the Backup tool (Windows 95 and Windows NT) or
Backup for Windows (Windows for Workgroups).
In general, any copy you make of pre-installed software must be
used only as a back-up copy, in case the pre-installed version is lost.
You are not allowed to use installation diskettes created from disk
images to install the software onto another computer.
Your pre-installed copy of Windows is configured for a standard
monitor setting (640 x 480 pixels in a maximum of 16 different
colours), so that Windows is sure to display correctly whatever
monitor you have.
Most modern monitors, including Mitsubishi Electric monitors, can
display higher resolutions than standard VGA. You can change the
setting to one that more closely matches your own monitor, to get
the best performance from it.
