again and select CGA 40 column.

MGA, or a Hercules MGA attached to a monochrome
monitor, choose Monochrome 80 column.

card to mono.)

Setting the Power-on Password
Setting a power-on password lets you control who can use your
system. However, you do not need to set a power-on password
to use the Equity 386SX.
If you set a power-on password, you must enter it the next time
you turn on or reset your computer. If you cannot enter it
correctly, the computer locks up and does not respond to your
keyboard entries. Therefore, if you set a power-on password, be
sure to remember it or write it down and keep it in a safe place.
