- Two diskettes for Computer Setup for Workstations Version 1.02 Rev A 

PC Diagnostics and Computer Setup for Workstations are both 
pre-installed on the Diagnostics Partition.  The diskettes in this 
SoftPaq should be used to update these utilities on the Diagnostics 
Partition.  They can also be used to restore the Diagnostics Partition 
if it has been destroyed.   Both utilities can be run by pressing F10 
when the cursor moves to the upper right corner of the screen during 
power-up or reboot.  Or they can be run directly from these diskettes.  

Personal Computer Diagnostics contains programs that can test and 
inspect the state of the Professional Workstation 5000 and its devices.

Computer Setup for Workstations allows the user to configure security 
and power management settings as well as system resources 
(DMA, IRQ, I/O Ports, and Memory).

IMPORTANT: Only 1.44 MB diskettes can be used; other types of media
cannot be substituted.

that directory. The file that is downloaded is SP2499.EXE.

You will be prompted on when to place each of the three formatted 
1.44 MB diskettes into a diskette drive to create the diskettes.

Second Diskette -- Computer Setup for Workstations Version 1.02 Rev A 
                  (Disk 1 of 2)
Third Diskette -- Computer Setup for Workstations Version 1.02 Rev A 
                  (Disk 2 of 2)
