Introduction

Your new EPSON® computer is a versatile system ideally

suited for use as a network server or high-powered

workstation. It offers the following features:

Upgradable 486SX, SX2, DX, DX2, or Pentium™ OverDrive™

processor

Energy Star compliant, low-power standby mode for the

video and hard disk drive in standard configurations

High-speed, 32-bit local bus interfaces for both SVGA video

and IDE hard disk drives

4MB or 8MB of internal memory, expandable to 64MB

System and video BIOS shadow RAM

8KB of internal processor cache, with support for 64KB,

128KB, or 256KB of external cache

1MB of on board video memory, expandable to 2MB

Math coprocessor built into the microprocessor on DX,

DX2, and Pentium OverDrive systems

Local bus video with True Color™ support, which lets your

monitor display up to 16.8 million colors

Built-in SVGA port with support for energy-conserving

monitors

Two built-in serial ports and one built-in parallel port

One built-in PS/2™ compatible keyboard port and one

built-in PS/2 compatible mouse port

Three 16-bit, ISA option/expansion slots (one full-length

and two half-length) and two 32-bit VESA local bus slots

(VESA slots can also be used for ISA cards)

Space for up to four mass storage devices, three externally

accessible and one internal; on-board controllers support

up to two IDE hard disk drives and two diskette drives

Password security and anti-virus features.

Your system contains local bus interfaces for the video and IDE

controllers. These buses can transfer data at the full speed of

your processor rather than at the standard 8.33 MHz ISA bus

speed, so your system can access the hard disk drive and

process video data far more quickly. The local bus video,

combined with the standard 1MB of on-board video memory,

provides fast video response in a range of resolutions and

colors. (See Appendix A for a list of supported resolutions.)

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

“GreenPC” feature places the hard disk drive in a low-power

standby mode when the mouse or keyboard has been inactive

for a specified period of time.

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

non-compliant monitors go blank, but do not enter a

low-power standby mode.)

The VESA option slots allow you to install high-performance

VESA-compliant devices such as a graphics accelerator card,

SCSI adapter, or network controller.

2 Introduction

Your computer’s SETUP configuration program lets you select

different time-out periods for the hard disk drive and video

signals so you can ensure that the standby feature fits the way

you work.

Your system may have been configured for you. If so,

everything you need to get started is already in place. The

settings for your hardware configuration have been adjusted to

ensure optimal system performance. The hard disk drive may

contain the operating system and Microsoft® Windows™. In

addition, the drivers needed to take advantage of your system’s

local bus features and enhanced video resolutions may have been

installed for you.

Optional Equipment

You can easily upgrade your computer by installing additional

memory and a wide variety of options, as described below.

(Installation instructions are provided in Chapters 4 and 5.)

System Memory

By adding 1MB, 2MB, 4MB, 8MB, 16MB, or 32MB SIMMs

(single inline memory modules) to the main system board, you

can expand the computer’s memory up to 64MB.

Video Memory

You can increase the video memory in your system to 2MB,

which allows you to use higher video resolutions with more

colors.

Introduction 3

Cache Memory

You can increase the cache memory to 64KB, 128KB, or 256KB

by installing additional SRAM chips on your main system

board. Additional cache allows your system to access

frequently used data faster, improving the overall performance

of the system.

Microprocessor

Your system supports the following microprocessors:

Drives

486SX/25 or /33

486SX2/50 or /66

486DX/33, /40, or /50

486DX2/50 or /66

Pentium OverDrive.

Your system can hold up to four mass storage devices,

including hard disk drives, diskette drives, a tape drive, a

CD-ROM drive, or an optical drive. As your storage needs

expand, you can install additional drives.

4 Introduction

SVGA and IDE Drivers

Your computer comes with special SVGA and IDE drivers for

the integrated local bus SVGA and IDE hard disk drive

interfaces. The IDE driver lets you use the high-speed, 32-bit

local bus IDE hard disk drive interface which dramatically

increases the speed of your computer as it reads from and

writes to your hard disk drive.

The SVGA drivers allow you to take advantage of the local bus

and extended VGA features such as high resolutions and

132-column text mode when you run popular application

programs.

If your system was configured for you, these drivers have

already been installed. If you need to install them yourself, see

Chapter 2 for instructions on installing the IDE driver. The

README.TXT file on Drivers diskette 2 tells you how to install

video drivers for specific applications. See Chapter 2 for more

information.
