Chapter 1: Setting Up Your System
Running Your System for the First Time
1. Power up the monitor. If you are unsure about this, please refer
to the monitor’s manual for more information.
2. Remove any floppy disks from the floppy drive.
3. Power up the computer system by firmly pushing and releasing
the On/Off button on the front panel of the system. The power
indicator should light up and the fan and hard drive should begin
to run.
The system diagnostics begins at this time. The keyboard is initialized indicated
by the keyboard LEDs blinking momentarily. The Num Lock LED remains
on. Next, the screen initializes and a message indicating what type of video
adapter is installed. The memory will be counted and tested.
Finally, the system is booted.
If you experience any problems during the power up sequence, please refer to Chapter
4, "Common Problems."
Turning Off Your System
Micron recommends that you power down your system in the following order:
1. Exit all applications you are running and save any changes.
2. Make sure that ALL disk activity has completely stopped. The
floppy and hard drive indicator lights should be off and the
floppy drive motors should stop. Hard disks continue to spin
until the system power is shut off.
3. Turn off the computer system, then the monitor.
