Important Safety Instructions

Read all of these instructions and save them for later reference. Follow

all warnings and instructions marked on the computer.

•

Unplug the computer before cleaning. Clean with a damp cloth only.

Do not spill liquid on the computer.

Do not place the computer on an unstable surface or near a radiator

or heat register.

Do not block or cover the openings in the computer’s cabinet. Do not

insert objects through the slots.

Connect all equipment to properly grounded power outlets. Avoid

using outlets on the same circuit as photocopiers or air control

systems that regularly switch on and off.

Do not let the computer’s power cord become damaged or frayed.

If you use an extension cord with the computer, make sure the total

ampere rating of the devices plugged into the extension cord does

not exceed the cord’s ampere rating. Also, make sure the total of all

devices plugged into the wall outlet does not exceed 15 amperes.

Except as specifically explained in this Users Guide, do not attempt to

service the computer yourself.

Unplug the computer and refer servicing to qualified service

personnel under the following conditions:

If the power cord or plug is damaged; if liquid has entered the

computer; if the computer has been dropped or the cabinet damaged;

if the computer does not operate normally or exhibits a distinct

change in performance. Adjust only those controls that are covered

by the operating instructions.

If you plan to use the computer in Germany, observe the following:

To provide adequate short-circuit protection and over-current

protection for this computer, the building installation must be

protected by a 16 Amp circuit breaker.

S’assurer aussi que cette intensité ne dépasse jamais la somme de 15

amperes pour l’ensemble des appareils.

Sauf dans les cas spécifiques expliqués dans ce manuel de l’usager,

ne pas essayer d’entretenir ou de réparer l’ordinateur soi-méme.

Debrancher l’ordinateur et contacter un technicien qualifié dans les

circonstances suivantes:

Si le cordon ou la prise sont abîmés; si un liquide a pénétré à

l’intérieur de l’appareil; si on a laissé tomber l’appareil ou si le boîtier

est endommagé; si l’ordinateur ne fonctionne pas normalement ou

fonctionne d'une maniére trés différente de l’ordinaire. N’ajuster que

les commandes décrites dans les directives.

Pour utiliser l’ordinateur en Allemagne, il est nécessaire que le

bâtiment soit muni d’un disjoncteur de 16 amperes pour protéger

l’ordinateur contre les courts-circuits et le survoltage.

Your new EPSON® computer is a full powered, full featured

system that gives you complete access for all your business and

home computer needs. And because your computer is plug and

play compliant and designed to take advantage of Microsoft®

Windows®95, you’ll be able to use all the latest technology.

With the computer’s 586-class processor and a generous 8MB of

standard memory you can run a vast array of the latest

programs, utilities, and games designed for productivity and

fun.

The system’s state-of-the-art PC1 (Peripheral Component

Interconnect) bus architecture enables faster and more efficient

response from your VGA monitor and any PC1 devices you

may install, such as PC1 option cards and IDE (Integrated Drive

Electronics) devices.

When you’re ready for even more capability, you can expand

your system, video, and cache memory, install option cards

and additional drives, and upgrade your processor.

Computer Features

Your computer offers the following features:

586-class processor

At least 8MB of RAM (Random Access Memory),

expandable to 128MB

PCI components on the main system board provide a direct

line for caching, memory, and device control for all PCI

devices

Introduction 1

High-speed, PCI VGA controller with an integrated 24-bit

RAMDAC and 64-bit DRAM interface

Two PCI, ATA-2 compatible, enhanced IDE interfaces

supporting up to four IDE devices, such as hard disk drives

and CD-ROM drives (two on each interface)

16KB of internal cache in the processor and up to 1MB of

external cache on the main system board

1MB of video memory, expandable to 2MB

Three Energy Star compliant power-saving modes for the

CPU, video, and hard disk drives in standard

configurations

Three 16-bit, ISA (Industry Standard Architecture) option

slots and two PCI option slots supporting up to two PCI

bus m aster cards

On the slim line computer, space for up to four mass storage

devices-three externally accessible and one internal; on

the tower computer, space for up to seven mass storage

devices-four externally accessible and three internal.

Power-saving Features

In standard configurations, this computer complies with the

United States Environmental Protection Agency’s Energy Star

Program, which promotes the manufacture of energy-efficient

printers, computers, and monitors. Your computer’s “deep

green”features place the CPU, video, and hard disk drives in

power-saving modes when the mouse and keyboard have been

inactive for a specified period of time. You can customize the

deep green features in the SETUP program.

2 Introduction

ISA and PCI Expansion Buses

Your computer includes two expansion buses for two types of

option cards: ISA and PCI. The ISA bus transfers data at

8.33 MHz for up to three 16-bit ISA option cards. This bus is

especially suitable for fax/ modem cards, sound cards, and

SCSI (Small Computer System Interface) cards for scanners.

The PCI bus provides extremely fast data transfer (33 MHz) for

up to two high-performance PCI cards, such as network

adapters and high-speed video cards. The computer supports

plug and play technology that automatically configures the

resources used by PCI cards, such as interrupt requests and

memory addresses.

System and video BIOS

The computer’s system and video BIOS are contained in a flash

ROM device on the main system board. The BIOS includes the

following:

ISA and PCI compatibility

Power-on diagnostics tests

SETUP program

PCI auto-configuration utility

BIOS upgrade and recovery code

Your computer supports shadowing of the system and video

BIOS to allow the BIOS routines to run from fast, 64-bit RAM

instead of from the slower, S-bit flash ROM device.

Introduction 3

PCI Auto-configuration

The PCI auto-configuration utility works with the SETUP

program to support PCI option cards. When you turn on the

computer after installing a PCI option card, the BIOS

automatically configures interrupts, DMA channels, I/O

addresses, and other settings. You can also customize these

resources in SETUP.

BIOS Upgrades

Because the BIOS is stored in a flash ROM device, you can

easily upgrade the BIOS information without replacing the

chip. You can upgrade the BIOS by running a utility from a

diskette, hard disk, or network server.
