Using the ESPEED Program
ESPEED provides an easy way to change the processor speed
if your application program does not recognize the Ctrl
keyboard commands or if you want to include the program
command in a batch file.
The ESPEED program is provided with your system on the
Reference diskette. If you do not have a hard disk, insert your
Reference diskette in drive A and log onto drive A before you
enter the command to start the program.
If you have a hard disk drive, copy the file ESPEED.COM
from your Reference diskette onto your hard disk and run the
program from there.
For information on how to run the ESPEED program, type
the following at the MS-DOS command prompt and press
Enter:
ESPEED ?
You see this display:
