    FCC COMPLIANCE STATEMENT FOR AMERICAN USERS This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protections against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: l Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna l Increase the separation between the equipment and the receiver l Connect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected l Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help. You may find the following booklet prepared by the Federal Communications Commission helpful: “Television Interference Handbook” This booklet is available from the U.S. Government Printing Office, Washington DC 20402. Stock No. 004-000-00450-7 Note: If the interference stops, it was probably caused by the computer or its periph- eral devices. To further isolate the problem: Disconnect the peripheral devices and their input/output cables one at a time. If the interference stops, it is caused by either the peripheral device or its I/O cable.

  • DOS Command Reference 87
    89719037 Tech Ref 7/26/99 12:30 PM Page 87 DOS Command Reference 87 DOS Command Reference Even if the systems you support, upgrade, and repair are all running the latest version of Windows, you will inevitably find yourself occasionally troubleshooting these systems from the DOS command line. With that in mind, I have included this brief DOS command reference to aid you when you are at the command line.* *This DOS command reference is based substantially on material found in Paul McFedries’ Windows 98 Unleashed Professional Reference Edition, copyright 1998 Sams Publishing, all rights reserved. Used with permission. DOS Commands Found in DOS 6.22, Windows 95, and Windows 98 Windows 95 and Windows 98 both still include DOS commands. The version of DOS with Windows 95 is called 7.0 and the version with Windows 98 is called 7.1. For the most part, DOS 7.x commands are just a subset of the commands found in DOS 6.22. However, DOS 7.x does have a few new features not found in DOS 6.x, so the new DOS is not the same as the old DOS. Here’s a partial list of improvements: ■You can start Windows programs from the DOS prompt and even from within batch files. ■The new DOS includes support for long filenames. ■Reduced reliance on real-mode drivers means that more conventional memory is available for DOS programs. ■Each DOS program can have its own settings and environment (CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT). These are controlled via property sheets, so there’s no need to create pro- gram information files (PIFs) from scratch for each program.

  • Windows Command Reference
    AppendixChapter B1 Windows Command Reference Programs Provided with Windows This appendix lists all the programs installed by Windows Setup on the 32-bit versions of Windows 2000 Professional, Windows XP (Home Edition, Professional, and Media Center Edition), and Windows Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business, Enterprise, and Ultimate), with all optional components installed. It also lists some programs installed by Windows Update and Automatic Updates. The purpose of this appendix is to help you identify programs that you find running in your Task Manager window, and to let you browse for interesting standard programs that you might not be aware of. The programs fall into several categories: ■ Graphical User Interface (GUI) programs, such as Notepad and Internet Explorer. GUI programs are delivered as executable files with an .EXE filename extension. ■ Command-line (console) utilities such as ping and dir. Most command-line programs are delivered as executable (.EXE and .COM) files, with the exception of a few script files (.VBS and .JS), and some “built-in” commands that are handled directly by the com- mand prompt processor cmd.exe or command.com. ■ Control Panel applets, screensavers, and Microsoft Management Console (MMC) snap- ins. The files have corresponding filename extensions: .SCR for screensavers, .MSC for MMC snap-ins, and .CPL for Control Panel applets. ■ Components such as device drivers, Windows services, and programs used solely as “helper” components of other programs. These programs may have a filename extension that makes them look like standard programs, but they are not useful on their own. This appendix does not list the optional programs installed from the \TOOLS folder on the Windows Setup CD-ROM or DVD, although it does lists a few subcomponents of these tools that end up under your \windows folder.
