Q18. How do
I format my 40MB hard drive so that I can get full
use of the 40 megabytes?
A.
Since MS-DOS 3.2 only supports
32MB, a disk manager
program
must be used to
get
full use of the 40
megabytes
that. are available. Epson
includes Storage
Dimensions'
"SpeedStor" disk manager with
the 40MB hard
drives to provide this capability.

and
EQ III+ (12MHz) interchangeable?

operate at 12MHz.
The 10MHz boards will not operate reliably
in a 12MHz systems.

chips should be used on the expansion boards for
the EQ III+?
A.
