Energy Savings In standard configurations, this computer complies with the United States Environmental Protection Agency's Energy Star Program, which promotes the manufacture of energyefficient printers, computers, and monitors. Your computer's "Green PC" feature places the hard disk drive in a low-power standby mode when the mouse and keyboard have been inactive for a specified period of time. It also stops sending video signals to your monitor. Note If you have an Energy Star compliant monitor, it also goes into a low-power standby mode because it isn't receiving video signals from your computer. (Screens on noncompliant monitors go blank, but do not enter a low-power standby mode.) VGA Drivers Your computer comes with VGA drivers and utilities for use with the integrated video interface. With these drivers, you can take advantage of the extended VGA features such as higher resolutions and 132-column text mode when you run popular applications. If your system was configured for you, these drivers and utilities may be installed on your hard disk. If you need to install them yourself, see the instructions in Chapter 1. To obtain drivers for additional applications, call the EPSON . Connection"" or access the Epson America Forum on CompuServe.* Introduction 3

Energy Savings
In standard configurations, this computer complies with the
United States Environmental Protection Agency’s Energy Star
Program, which promotes the manufacture of energyefficient
printers, computers, and monitors. Your computer’s
“Green PC” feature places the hard disk drive in a low-power
standby mode when the mouse and keyboard have been
inactive for a specified period of time. It also stops sending
video signals to your monitor.
Note
If you have an Energy Star compliant monitor, it also goes
into a low-power standby mode because it isn’t receiving
video signals from your computer. (Screens on
noncompliant monitors go blank, but do not enter a
low-power standby mode.)
VGA Drivers
Your computer comes with VGA drivers and utilities for use
with the integrated video interface. With these drivers, you can
take advantage of the extended VGA features such as higher
resolutions and 132-column text mode when you run popular
applications. If your system was configured for you, these
