5. Installing Floppy Disk Drives When installing a floppy disk drive as drive B remember to set the drive select jumper to the second position and attach the pas amp through Equity Series Computers 9 22 89 EQUITY 386SX connector on the floppy drive controller cable to the drive not the end connector If the drive does not function normally make sure that the drive type has been correctly selected in SETUP Also check that any special drivers that may be necessary have been installed correctly Installing Hard Disk Drives It is recommended that A 16 bit AT type hard disk controller be used in the Equity 386SX if you are installing A drive that cannot make use of the internal hard disk controller Also remember to disable the onboard hard disk controller when installing such A drive if you are having difficulty in formatting the hard disk drive try starting over with the Unconditional Format option In diagnostics When installing an optional expanded memory board do not list the memory under the memory expansion option in SETUP That option is for EXTENDED memory ONLY Wheninstalling a hard disk drive be sure to consult the drive type tables on page EQ386SX 6 for the drive type which fits the drive you are installing Adding Memory Modules The total amount of memory must be one of the following 1 MB 2M8 4MB 6MB 8MB 10MB 12MB or 14MB Memory banks must be filled with one size SIMM You cannot mix
6. SIMM types in one bank Sockets 7A 8A 12A and 13A accept only 256KB SIMMs The rest of the sockets accept only 1 MB SIMMs The 256KB SIMM sockets must be filled before using any of the 1 MB sockets Software Problems When installing a copy protected software package on the Equity 888 first try the EQ386SxX 5 EQUITY 386SX Installation at 16MHz f this does not work properly try switching to 8MHz for the Installation tf you are still unable to load the program at 16MHz try loading at 8MHz and then switching to 16MHz When using a software package that uses a keydisk as it copy protection method try loading it at 18MHz If this does not work enable the Auto Speed option in SETUP Power on Password Make sure that you do not forget the Power on Password should you set one up If you do it will be necessary to disable it by moving jumper 2 on the main circuit board to the 1 2 position If you enable network server mode after installing a password the computer prompts you for that password before allowing you to access the system as long as you boot the system from the Reference diskette However if you install MS DOS on the hard disk and boot from that drive the prompt no longer appears The computer shows the normal MS DOS prompt e g C gt but it still requires the password before allowing you to access the system In network server mode EQ386SX 6 9 22 89 Equity Series Computers Hard Disk Drive T
