Starting and Exiting MS-DOS Remember, before you can run an MS-DOS application program, MS-DOS itself must be running in memory. Follow these steps to load MS-DOS: 1. Turn on any peripherals, such as the printer or an external diskette drive. 2. If your system has a hard disk, be sure its power switch is turned on. 3. If your system does not have a hard disk, insert the working copy of your MS-DOS system diskette into drive A, on the right side of the computer. 4. Turn on your computer. Note If your system has a hard disk that is set to boot MS-DOS automatically, be sure that no diskette is in drive A. MS-DOS loads automatically from the hard disk when you turn on the computer. See Chapter 2 for more information on the hard disk. 5. Press Enter twice to accept the date and time shown. 4-2 Using MS-DOS With the Equity LT
