ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 3. !!! IMPORTANT INFORMATION !!! ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

20 December 1996.

Due to a change in management direction, the IBM PC Assistant has ceased to
exist as a separate entity.  Most of the content is being migrated to a Lotus
Notes database, from which external access will be made available through a
World Wide Web site. The name of this new database, and the URL, are not yet
known at this time.  Hopefully all will be made clear in due time.

Because it may be months yet before this database is opened to the public, I
have produced one more PC Assistant edition to partially fill the gap.  Because
I only had a few days in which to put it together, many of the new product
announcements since early August, when the last edition was released) are not
included.  There are no new technical specs here, and not much else of note
(aside from some new OS/2 Q&As.) added.  Most of the changes are in the form of
minor corrections and updates to existing Q&As, and many price reductions and
product withdrawals in the IBM PC Marketing Assistant.

I am sorry for the lengthy delay in releasing this long-overdue edition, but
the new database should be a big improvement in the long run, with a more
worldwide focus (international product models, for example), and more timely
updates (daily perhaps), supported by dozens of people around the world.

It is possible that I will release one final edition after this one, in order
to provide the details of where and how to access the new WWW database.  It all
depends on how well publicized it is.  But the amount of time and effort put
into it on my part will probably equal that of this edition, so don't expect
too much.

It's been a pleasure and an honor serving you these last 7 years.

Good luck (and watch out for Murphy!).

The IBM ValuePoint Assistant contains information about IBM PS/ValuePoint
systems and options.

OVERVIEW

There are many sources of information available from IBM about IBM PC products,
including announcement letters, service manuals, programming and technical
reference manuals, how-to "cookbooks," electronic bulletin boards (both public
and commercial), and others.  The IBM PC Assistant brings much disparate and
often difficult to find information together into one easy-to-use "electronic
book."

Note:  As the IBM PC Assistant is a product of the IBM PC Company, the
information contained herein covers the subset of IBM PC products sold by the
IBM PC Company.  Most other PC-related products, sold by other IBM companies or
divisions are not included.  Such products include the IBM Gearbox industrial
PCs, and certain host-attach hardware and software products.  Information on
these products must be obtained from the organizations offering them for sale.

 The reason for having a number of different books instead of just one large
 one is two-fold.  First, there is so much information provided that it might
 be awkward to use, and would take longer to search through than smaller books.
 And second, by dividing up all of this information into related subject
 matter, those who don't need certain categories of information (such as
 service tips, for example), can delete entire books to save disk space.
 Besides, these files can be logically linked together and viewed or searched
 as one large book, at your preference.  (This procedure is explained in the
 accompanying ASST.TXT file.)  For convenience, the files will be collectively
 called the "IBM PC Assistant" throughout the rest of this document.

 Not only is the information more "centrally located" this way than distributed
 across all the individual documents, but due to its electronic nature, the
 specific information you seek can be found more quickly and easily.  The
 source information is compiled into binary files that take roughly half as
 much disk space as ASCII files would.  And since the compiler also creates a
 "data dictionary" of all words and numbers anywhere in the files, all
 occurrences can be found and displayed on-screen in only a few seconds via the
 search facility provided.  In addition, hypertext links (hyperlinks) allow you
 to jump from section to section within a book without ever having to return to
 the Table of Contents.  Hyperlinks are also used to display popup footnote
 windows at the point of the footnote reference, rather than making you have to
 scroll down to the bottom of a page, or the end of a chapter, to find the
 footnoted information.

 The IBM PC Assistant is created by compiling a scripted ASCII text file, using
 the Information Presentation Facility (IPF) Tag Language and Compiler.  They
 are included in the OS/2 2.1 or 3.0 Developer's Toolkits, IBM Hyperwise editor
 (P/N 30H1731--3.5"), and IBM C Set++ First Step V2.1 (P/N 82G3744--3.5";
 82G3746--CD-ROM") packages, among others.  The IBM PC Assistant requires OS/2
 1.2 or later to operate, because it uses the OS/2 VIEW.EXE command to access
 the files.  This is the same command used to display the online OS/2 Command
 Reference.  Since both files were created with the same compiler, and are
 displayed by the same command, they look and act very much alike.  So if you
 know how to use one, you also know how to use the other.

 Note:  The IBM PC Assistant was tested, and does work, across an OS/2 LAN
 Server V1.2 or later network, relieving the need for disk space on the
 requester, not to mention not having to keep all those requesters updated with
 the latest versions of the IBM PC Assistant books.  (For instructions on
 Setting Up an OS/2 LAN Server to Share Online Books, see the document by the
 same name in the Networking Tips section of the PS Technical Assistant.)

  HOW TO USE THE IBM PC ASSISTANT

 Note:  The following instructions are written for users of the native OS/2
 online book version of these publications.  Most of the explanations will
 apply equally to the World Wide Web version of the books, however some minor
 differences may exist.

 Before you begin to use this tool, it is helpful to understand how to:

     Expand the Contents to see all available topics
     Obtain additional information for a highlighted word or phrase
     Use action bar choices.

 How to use the Table of Contents
 When the Contents window first appears, some topics have a plus (+) sign
 beside them.  The plus sign indicates that additional topics are available.

 To expand the Contents if you are using a mouse, click on the plus sign.  If
 you are using the keyboard, use the Up or Down Arrow key to highlight the
 topic, and press the plus (+) key. For example, Part Number / Pricing /
 Availability List has a plus sign beside it.  To see the complete list of Part
 Numbers, etc, click on the plus sign or highlight that topic and press the
 plus (+) key.

 To view a topic, double-click on the topic (or press the Up or Down Arrow key
 to highlight the topic, and then press the Enter key).

 Note:  To exit from any panel (window), including this one, simply press the
 ESC key, or double-click on the icon to the left of the panel title bar (NOT
 the one to the left of the IBM PC Assistant title bar, or you will close the
 IBM PC Assistant).  This will return you to the point from which you entered
 the panel (either the Table Of Contents or another panel).  This may be done a
 number of times in succession to step back through layers of panels, or until
 the TOC is reached.

 How to obtain additional information
 After you select a topic, the information for that topic appears in a window.
 Words, phrases, or numbers highlighted like this or this indicate that
 additional information is available, either in the form of a footnote, or
 sometimes an entire section.  Hyperlinks are used in some areas to help you
 jump from one section of a document directly to another, without having to
 return to a menu. (If you don't find this color to be easily identifiable as a
 hyperlink, you may change the color, as described below.)  Use the mouse, or
 Tab and Enter keys, to move between all the hyperlinks within a document.  For
 example:

 Certain words in the following section are highlighted in this way.  If you
 are using a mouse, double-click on the highlighted words.  If you are using a
 keyboard, press the Tab key to move from one highlighted word to the next, (or
 Shift-Tab to backup) and then press the Enter key.  Additional information
 will appear in a pop-up window.

 Note:  The windows that pop up when you double-click on a hypertext link are
 sizable.  Simply drag the sides or corners of the windows to the desired size
 and shape, just as you would any other PM window.

 Note:  Headings are assigned the color red throughout the IBM PC Assistant.
 The Change Bars (|), which indicate additions or revisions since the last
 release of the IBM PC Assistant, are also highlighted in red to make them
 easier to find.  (All other colors are as set by your OS/2 Control Panel (OS/2
 1.x), or Scheme Palette (OS/2 2.x) selections.  If a color, or combination of
 colors, is not to your liking, you may change them to something more pleasing.
 The operative choices are: Help Text, Help Background, and Help Highlight.)

 Tip:  An easy way to find ALL changes since the last version is to Search for
 the Change Bar character.  This can be typed by holding the Shift key while
 typing the backslash key (on U.S. English 101-key keyboards--other keyboards
 may differ).

 How to use the Action Bar options
 A number of choices are available for managing information presented in the
 IBM PC Assistant.  If you want to see more information about these choices,
 click on the name of the choice (or press the Tab key to move to the choice
 and press Enter).

 Search
       Allows you to find occurrences of a word or phrase in the current topic,
       selected topics, or all topics. (This choice is available from the
       Services pull-down.)

 Print
       Allows you to print one or more topics. (This choice is available from
       the Services pull-down.)

 Copy
       Allows you to copy a topic you are viewing to a file you can edit. (This
       choice is available from the Services pull-down.)

 Options
       Allows you to change the way your Table of Contents is displayed.

 Bookmark (This choice is available from the Contents pull-down.)
       Allows you to set a placeholder so you can retrieve information of
       interest to you. (This choice is available from the Services pull-down.)

 Help
       Provides online help panels for using the Help facility.

 How to use the Push Buttons
 The Search, Print, and Index push buttons arrayed across the bottom of the
 panel duplicate the functions of the same-name Action Bar options.  In
 addition there are buttons marked Previous, Contents, Back, and Forward.
 Previous simply steps you back through the series of panels you have just
 looked at, in the reverse order of how you originally looked at them.  By
 contrast, Back, uses the Table of Contents to step backward through all the
 sections listed in the TOC, in reverse order, from the current section.
 Forward, naturally, steps you forward through all the TOC entries.  And
 Contents pops the TOC list on top of whatever panel you are currently viewing.

ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 5.3. IBM PC Assistant Series Survey ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

Here's your chance to tell IBM what to do!  If you like the IBM PC Assistant
series of books (ThinkPad Assistant, OS Assistant, Marketing Assistant, etc.),
say so.  If you would like to see new information, or different ways of
organizing the existing information, say so.  If you think some information is
a complete waste of space, let me know (and why you think so).  Your feedback
is valuable, and will help direct the future of the IBM PC Assistant. (No
guarantees that any or all suggestions will be implemented, but if you don't
ask you'll never know.)

You can return this survey by printing and mailing it to the address provided,
or by using Ctrl-Insert on the survey screen to copy it to the OS/2 clipboard
and then pasting it into a word processor and filling it out, PROFS and IBMMail
users can paste it into a note and send it to me at: MCHAPMAN at RALVM8 for
IBMers, or USIB3ZLD at IBMMAIL for external customers with IBMLink access.
CompuServers can reach me at: 72662,3663.  Or [e-mail] for
Internet users.  And you can even fax it to me (isn't technology wonderful?) at
919-517-1229.

ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 6. Now an Online Database on CompuServe and the WWW ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

If you know any users of IBM PC-related products who could benefit from the
information in the IBM PC Assistant, but who are not OS/2 users, another
alternative is the searchable databases on CompuServe and the World Wide Web.

The IBM PC Assistant Database on CompuServe, which contains most of the
information in the various IBM PC Assistant books in an ASCII format (so no
hyperlinks or bitmap images), can be reached with the GO word PCASSIST.  (You
also can reach it via GO IBM, then select the Technical Services and Support,
and IBM PC Assistant Database menu options.)  Of course, this only helps
CompuServe users, but it allows users of almost any operating system to access
the data via CompuServe.

The latest addition is a World Wide Web version of the IBM PC Assistant that is
be accessible from any of the online services, as well as directly.  Because it
uses an INF-to-HTML conversion tool to create the web page, it looks just like
the INF files in terms of the structure (data organization, pushbutton
placement, etc.).  Hyperlinks work like they do on other web pages.  The only
limitation is that the imbedded bitmap images from the INF file are not
available in the HTML version.  Otherwise it should work exactly like the INF
version.  To see it, point your browser to the Team-OS/2 web page at
http://www.teamos2.org/ibm/os2support/.  There is a link near the top of that
page to Online BOOKS and NEWSLETTERS.  (There are quite a few other books to
choose from on that web page.)  Or go directly to:
http://www.teamos2.org/ibm/os2support/books/assisttoc.html to bypass the first
panel. |

ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 7.2. Industry Reviews: ValuePoint ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

A sampling of industry praise bestowed on PS/ValuePoint systems:

 Quotes
  "IBM's new ValuePoint 100DX4/Dp breaks ground by being one of the first
   desktop systems with Intel Corp.'s 50/100MHz DX4 processor and an
   interchangeable VL-bus or PCI expansion bus.  The ValuePoint ... offers good
   expandibility, user ergonomics, and serviceability.  A unique feature of the
   system is its ability to use either a PCI-based or a VL-based expansion
   riser card.  [T]his offers flexibility for sites with mixed PCI-bus and
   VL-bus expansion cards.  [T]he new ValuePoint's interchangeable bus
   architecture allows corporate sites the flexibility of offering two
   solutions using the same system, without dependency on expansion boards.
   [T]he video and IDE controller are on the motherboard, so the system comes
   with five free expansion slots.  Although other desktop systems offer
   expandible video memory, the ValuePoint is one of the few with a motherboard
   that uses socketed DRAM ... instead of a proprietary expansion board.  [T]he
   system's fast disk and local-bus video helped it perform well in our Graphic
   and Disk WinMark tests.  [I]t includes a Lexmark ... keyboard, perhaps the
   best basic 101-key keyboard money can buy...." (Michael Caton, PC Week
   Magazine, 13Jun94)
  "Great enclosure design, easy installation, plus very lucid documentation.
   IBM's PS/ValuePoint P/60D['s] ... innovative enclosure [won] a place in our
   hearts.  One clever clip holds the entire cover on this system.  Go ahead:
   Press the clip down.  The cover slides off as though it were on ball
   bearings.  Somebody obviously thought this through carefully.  It may not
   seem like much if you never open your system, but if you've ever installed a
   sound card or new disk drive, you know that fumbling with screws and oddly
   shaped catches is the last thing you want to spend your time doing.  It's so
   easy to get under the hood, you'll want to tinker."  (John Montgomery,
   PC/Computing Magazine, Jun94)
  "The fastest 486 system in the Byte Unix benchmarks, the ValuePoint 6387-W90
   also ranked among the fastest systems for SPEC integer scores.  In addition,
   its S3 805 video and Maxtor hard disk systems were among the fastest tested.
   (This system's keyboard uses the TrackPoint pointing device found in IBM's
   ThinkPad portables.)  In addition, the ValuePoint earned among the highest
   scores for ease of use. For the best ISA system for DOS, [also] choose IBM's
   6387-W90, a roomy tower that posted the fourth fastest [after 3 EISA
   systems] DOS scores among the systems ranked here." [Comparison of 37 486DX2

  "The [25MHz 486SX] IBM ValuePoint ... is the least expensive "green" machine
   reviewed.  The system also includes some of the best documentation we've
   seen, providing information for both novice and advanced users.  And we
   found the icons for making backup disks of pre-installed software a nice
   ease-of-use feature. [Comparison of 13 Energy Star-compliant PCs] (Patrick

  "The folks at IBM ... make quite a statement with the ... ValuePoint P60/D.
   Packed with the latest features and next-generation technology, this
   Pentium-based powerhouse straddles the line between high-end workstations
   and typical business PCs--and does such an outstanding job, it earns a Best
   Buy in the process.  If you're running OS/2 or Windows NT, or if you just
   want one of the fastest PCs around, the ValuePoint P60/D has you covered.
   IBM PC Company continues IBM's long-standing tradition of great
   documentation, and the warranty and service package is solid industry
   standard, including one year of free on-site service. Overall ... an
   impressive combination of Pentium CPU and PCI bus--the perfect juxtaposition
   of two new technologies.  If you're looking for pentium power at the price
   of some high-end DX2-66s, this "Best Buy" is too good to miss.  [It's] the
   first Best Buy we've awarded to a Pentium PC." (Rex Farrance, PC World,
   Jan94)
  "IBM's consumer-friendly way of doing business is apparent with its recently
   revamped ValuePoint line.  This line is a giant step in the right direction,
   comprising low-cost, high-performance computers aimed at mainstream
   businesses.  These are complete and highly competitive systems that showed
   renewed strength at IBM.  Performance was no disappointment either.  No
   score dipped below average, and the DX2/66 even turned in some top scores on
   our DOS video, DOS disk, and Graphics WinMark tests.  IBM's service remains
   among the best deals in the business." [Comparison of 89 486 systems]

  "IBM has finally figured out the home- and small-business markets with the
   ValuePoint 466DX2, a PC that's easy to set up, use, and pay for.  Its VL-Bus
   architecture, local-bus video card, and fast 340MB drive recognize that the
   home- or small-business user also wants power." (Mike Hogan and Marty

  "With shipments of the 60MHz Pentium-based ValuePoint P60/D, IBM becomes one
   of the first vendors to deliver a Pentium-based PC with a PCI (Peripheral
   Component Interconnect) Local Bus.  The ValuePoint P60/D sports a 5-volt ...
   Pentium processor that can be removed and replaced with Intel's P54C--a
   3.3-volt, 100MHz Pentium due by the middle of next year, said sources close

  "Thanks to the PCI bus in IBM's new 60MHz Pentium-based ValuePoint Model
   6384 P60/D, the system's integrated video hardware made a good impression in
   PC Labs' tests.  To test the impact of PCI, PC Week Labs compared the
   integrated ATI Mach32 video to an ISA ATI Mach32 adapter in the same system.
   The PCI video was almost triple the speed of the ISA video in our Graphics

   18Oct93)
  "[T]he IBM ValuePoint [MVP] maintained respectable performance not only in
   the CD-ROM tests, but also in benchmark tests simulating everyday word
   processing and spreadsheet use.  What we liked most was the case.  While you
   need a screwdriver to open most PCs, the ValuePoint has a solid, screwless
   design that is easy to open and close--which makes upgrades a snap.  We were
   also impressed by the array of CD-ROM titles bundled with the system and the
   one-year onsite service warranty.  Big Blue gets the details right."  (John

  "Ready to dive into CD-ROM-spinning, sound-blasting multimedia?  But not
   ready to spend a fortune?  One of the best sources of inexpensive multimedia
   machines is ... IBM.  The latest models in IBM's PS/ValuePoint line throw in
   everything you need for a starter system : sound, a CD-ROM drive, and a
   thick stack of CD titles.  The [Multimedia for ValuePoint] MVP series uses
   SoundBlaster 16-bit cards. This hardware, coupled with Creative Labs'
   excellent speakers and hand-held microphone, produced excellent sound in our
   tests.  The MVP's S3-based local-bus video exceeds expectations for an MPC
   Level 2 system and performed well in our Windows applications tests.  The
   system we tested was a very good deal, it was easier to set up than an MPC
   upgrade kit, and it sounded great.  IBM's multimedia PCs are real winners,
   for both work and entertainment." (Matthew Lake, PC/Computing, Sep93)
  "Since Fall, the IBM ValuePoint family has continued to innovate and push
   the edges in feature sets, overall performance and technology, not just
   pricing." (Kimball Brown, InfoCorp)
  "[T]he ValuePoint's construction facilitates easy upgrading....  While the
   overall construction of the 486DX/33 test unit was typical of desktops in
   this price range, several "IBM touches" may remind users of the early IBM
   PCs.  The keyboard possessed the familiar tactile feel and clicking sound of
   its predecessors.  The video and keyboard cables seemed better insulated
   than on most clones.  [T]he 486DX's ... service program, called Helpware, is
   complete and comprehensive.  The helpware program includes a 30-day
   money-back guarantee, a toll-free technical support line, a bulletin board,
   and Fax support available around the clock, plus next-day onsite service
   during the first year.  IBM also offers aggressive trade-in rebates on many
   of their competitors' oldest models, even the old Compaq luggables.  With
   the PS/ValuePoint series, for the first time in almost a decade IBM is
   leading the industry." (Steve Levenson, Computer Shopper, Mar93)


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 8. ValuePoint Technical Q&As ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

For more detailed information, refer to the technical spec documents.

General
Q. Is there anywhere I can go for online technical support?
A. Yes.  If you have a CompuServe account, use GO VALUEPOINT to access the IBM
support forum there.

Video
Q. How do I disable the video on a ValuePoint 1 (1992/1993) system so that I
can install a video adapter?
A. On a 325T (386SLC-based) model, some have a J17 jumper on the motherboard
that can be removed.  If not, the video cannot be disabled.  On a 425SX
(486SX/25-based) model, move jumper JP10 from the 1-2 position to 2-3, and
remove the jumper at JP1.  On 433DX (486DX/33-based) models and the
6384-W52/W53 (486DX2/66-based) models, move JP10 from 1-2 to 2-3, and remove
the jumper at JP17.

Q. What is the IBM SelectaBus Technology of the Performance Series?
A. The IBM SelectaBus Technology allows you to perform a local bus upgrade to
PCI from VESA or to VESA from PCI by replacing the original riser card with a
new riser card option.

Q. Do all of the ValuePoint systems incorporate VESA Local-Bus video?
A. Not the original 6384 models announced in 1992.  All 6381, 6382 and 6387
models, and those 6384s announced in April 1993 do. Performance Series models
announced in May 1994 come with VESA Local Bus SVGA high performance video.

Q. What SVGA chipset does the 1994 (or later) ValuePoint systems use?
A. These systems use the S3 Vision864 chipset for high-performance graphics (up
to 1600x1200 resolution) and true color (16.7 million colors).

Q. Is there a 256-color driver for OS/2 2.1 available for the S3 Vision864 SVGA
chipset family used on some ValuePoint systems?
A. Yes, it is shipped with the pre-installed OS/2 2.1 systems.  Also it can be
downloaded from the IBM PC Co. BBS, CompuServe, and other sources.  The file
name on the IBM BBS is S3-256.DSK (which requires the LDF.COM file to create a
diskette image after downloading).  The file name may be different on
CompuServe and elsewhere, but should have S3 in the name.

Q. I installed OS/2 Warp on my local bus ValuePoint system, and I'm having
video problems.  What's wrong?
A. You need the updated S3 Vision864 drivers for Warp.  Look for S3_864.ZIP
from various electronic sources, or contact OS/2 support at 800-992-4777.

Q. The S3 Vision864 chips are capable of 64,000 colors and even 16 million
colors.  Are there plans for more "color rich" drivers for OS/2 than the
256-color driver? |
A. Yes.  In fact an OS/2 2.1 beta version of a 64K color driver can be
downloaded from the IBM PC Co. BBS, CompuServe, and other sources.  The file
name on the IBM BBS is S3-64K.DSK.  The file name may be different on
CompuServe and elsewhere, but should have S3 in the name.  There is a 16
million color driver in the works.  Both the 64K and 16M drivers are included
in every copy of OS/2 Warp 3.0 and later.

Q. Is there a 256-color driver for Windows 3.1 available for the S3 Vision864
SVGA chipset family?
A. Yes.  It can be downloaded from the IBM PC Co. BBS, CompuServe, and other
sources.  The file name on the IBM BBS is S3WIN203.DSK.

Q. Is there a 256-color driver for DOS and AUTOCAD available for the S3
Vision864 SVGA chipset family?
A. Yes.  It can be downloaded from the IBM PC Co. BBS, CompuServe, and other
sources.  The file name on the IBM BBS is S3DOS20.DSK.

Installation/Configuration
Q. Why does my ValuePoint system memory count (during POST) come up with 128K
less than the total installed RAM?
A. ValuePoint systems reserve 128K of RAM for ROM shadowing (also called
"High-Performance BIOS").  This memory allows instructions stored in ROM BIOS
to be loaded into working memory for faster access, resulting in better system
performance.

Q. Can the 128K of ROM shadowing ("High-Performance BIOS") be disabled?
A. Yes, on the 386SLC models the Setup program can be used to disable ROM
shadowing, which will release that 128K for application use.  Be aware, however
that this will reduce system performance.  On the 486 systems ROM shadowing can
be disabled, but the memory will not be freed up for application use.  Still,
turning it off may help with a compatibility problem.  On a 486 system, use the
program SHADOW.EXE on the DOS Utility diskette that came with your system to
toggle ROM shadowing on and off.  If you no longer have this diskette, the
program can be downloaded from the IBM PC Company BBS.

Q. I understand about the 128K reserved for ROM Shadowing, but the 486
ValuePoint systems seem to reserve 384K.  Why?
A. The 486 ValuePoints reserve an additional 256K for adapter use.  This is
normal, and there is no way to disable this to free up the memory for
application use.

Q. How do you run the Setup program?
A. During bootup (POST), while the memory count is proceeding, press the F1
key.  There are no Reference or Startup diskettes for the VP systems.

Q. What options are controlled by the Setup program?
A. Enable/Disable ROM Shadowing, Enable/Disable Power-On Password, disk Startup
Sequence, Serial and Parallel port addresses, IRQs and Enable/Disable, and set
Date and Time. |

Q. What are the disk Startup Sequence choices?
A. Either Smart (ignore a non-bootable diskette and boot from the hard drive),
or Conventional (prompt for bootable diskette if non-bootable diskette
inserted).

Q. I just set up my new ValuePoint, but nothing happens when I turn it on.
What's wrong?
A. Most likely, if you are in the US or Canada, the voltage switch in the back
(under the white sticker) is still set for the default of 230V power.  If so,
switch it to 115V, and try again. If it is set correctly, try removing and
replacing the system cover, making sure it is on correctly, with a snug fit.
Some ValuePoints will not power up if the cover isn't making good ground
contact.  If you have done all this and it still doesn't power on, place a
service call under warranty.

Q. Can the VPs be used in a vertical orientation (i.e., floor-standing)?
A. The 6382 and 6384 ValuePoints have not been UL-tested in a vertical
position.  Therefore overheating and EMI/RFI emissions may or may not be a
problem (not to mention the possibility of tipping, as there is no
floor-standing base to provide secure footing for vertical use).  For
floor-standing use, it is recommended that you purchase a 6387 Mini-tower
configuration, with 8 slots and 6 drive bays, or any 64xx model.  All models of
the Performance Series (6472, 6482, 6484, 6492, and 6494) except the MultiMedia
6482-CNB/LPF can be used vertically.  Except for the Mini-tower models (6492
and 6494) the other models require using the SCI Systems Floor Stand, Model
QMPE1003.  Call 205-882-4416 for information. |

Q. I'm trying to use an old version of Lotus 1-2-3 on my 486SX-based
ValuePoint, but it locks up.  What's wrong?
A. Older versions of 1-2-3 assume that all 486's include a math coprocessor,
because originally they did.  But when the 486SX came out it did not include a
mathco, and since 1-2-3 is expecting one it locks up when it tries to use it
for computations.  There are two solutions: 1) start 1-2-3 with the following
command: 123 -s (which tells the program not to expect a mathco), or 2) upgrade
to a newer version of 1-2-3 that recognizes that not all 486's provide a mathco
and checks for the presence of a coprocessor.

Q. I'm trying to install a second IDE drive, but the system doesn't seem to
recognize it.  What's wrong?
A. Most likely you installed the drive on the same cable as the primary
(master) drive, but didn't set the Master/Slave jumper or switch on the new
drive to Slave.  Refer to the installation instructions that came with your
drive for jumper/switch settings for this.  Most ValuePoint models include a
second IDE drive connector on the motherboard.  If yours does, you can get a
second IDE cable and connect your drive to it as the primary drive on this
second IDE channel.

Note:  If you connect an IDE CD-ROM or tape drive, it is highly recommended
that you put your hard drives on one channel, and the slower devices on the
other, for performance reasons.

Q. My ValuePoint came with a Future Domain TMC-850IBM SCSI adapter.  What can
you tell me about it? |
A. It was made exclusively for IBM by FD.  It uses an 8- or 16-bit ISA adapter
slot.  The default BIOS/Address is CA00h (jumpers W1 and W2 open).  Interrupt
Select is disabled (jumpers W6 and W7 will enable IRQs 3 or 5, respectively).
No I/O ports addresses are used.  Termination Power is enabled by default (via
W4), and Zero Wait State mode is disabled (W5).  If you are trying to use OS/2
with this adapter and the system consistently locks up, try enabling an
interrupt using jumper W6 or W7.

Q. I just installed an IBM Auto 16/4 Token-Ring Adapter in my
Plug-and-Play-enabled ValuePoint system, and it was configured as an alternate
adpter, rather than the primary one.  What's wrong?
A. The adapter was designed to be configured automatically by a
Plug-and-Play-enabled operating system.  You, apparently, are not using one.
This causes problems.  The solution, until the operating systems are available,
is to use the latest version of the adapter device driver (1.2 or later), which
can be found on the diskette that comes with the adapter, or downloaded from
the IBM PC Company BBS.  If for some reason this doesn't immediately help, run
the IBM-PNP.BAT program from Diskette 1 (likewise on the adapter diskettes),
which allows you to configure the adapter as either primary or alternate. |

Q. I just installed an IBM Auto 16/4 Token-Ring Adapter in my ValuePoint
system, and manually configured it with LANAID (or LANAIDC).  But now the
adapter settings (RAM/ROM address, IRQ, Primary/Alternate, etc.) have been
changed.  What happened?
A. LANAID and LANAIDC were designed to help configure Token-Ring adapters that
are not self-configuring.  But a plug-and-play adapter in a plug-and-play
system, with a plug and play operating system, is self configuring.  So there
should be no need to run these programs.  Just let the P-n-P feature do the
work.  If, for some reason, you must manually configure the adapter, make sure
you use the latest version of LANAID (1.3 or later), which supports manual
configuration of P-n-P adapters.  It too can be found on the IBM PC Company
BBS.

Specification/Upgrade
Q. How many SIMM sockets are on the motherboard?
A. All models have four (4) SIMM sockets.

Q. What is the maximum amount of memory that I can have in the Performance
Series models?
A. The Performance Series supports up to 32MB SIMMs; installing four 32MB SIMMs
will yield 128MB of memory.  The original 4MB or 8MB SIMM must be removed to
make room for one of the 32MB SIMMs.

Q. I know that I can upgrade my ValuePoint from a 486SX/25 to a DX2/66 or
Pentium/60 or 66.  But how can I do that with a 25MHz clock crystal
(oscillator) in my PC?
A. Your current oscillator is actually 50MHz, despite the speed of your
processor.  But you will need to replace the oscillator with a 66MHz version.
This is a pluggable component that is easily replaceable.  You should be able
to order NDK part number 1447B1, or equivalent, from most electronics stores or
catalogs.  (Only the 486SX/25 models need this upgrade.  The 486SX/33 and
higher models already use a 66MHz oscillator).  This component is very
inexpensive.

Q. Does IBM sell OverDrive processor kits to upgrade my ValuePoint from a 486SX
or DX to a DX2/66 or Pentium/60 or 66?
A. No, but Intel does.  They may also be available from other sources
(catalogs, computer specialty stores, etc.).

Q. Do the 486SX-based ValuePoints include an external (Level 2) cache?
A. No, however the newer models (all 6381, 6382 and 6387, and those 6384 models
announced April 6, 1993, and after) will accept an optional 128K or 256K of
write-through (lower cost than write-back, but also lower performance) or
write-back cache.  The Performance Series (64xx models) supports up to 256KB of
L2 Write Back Cache. |

Q. Do the 63xx 486DX, DX2 and DX4-based ValuePoints include an external (Level
2) cache?
A. Yes. There is 128K of write-through cache in 6382-Mxx, 6384-Mxx/Nxx/Vxx/Xxx,
and 6387-Vxx models, and 128K of write-back cache in the 6387-Wxx/Xxx and 64xx
DX2-based models.  The models that include 128K of write-through cache may be
upgraded to 256K of write-through cache, or 128K or 256K of write-back cache.
The models that come with 128K of write-back cache may be upgraded to 256K of
write-back cache.

Q. What kind(s) of serial ports are in the VL-Bus and PCI Bus models?
A. There are two 9-pin serial ports, one with an NS16550 UART, and the other
with an NS16450 chip.  The 16550 port supports DMA data transfers, for higher
performance.

Q. What kind of parallel port is in the VL-Bus models?
A. There is one 25-pin DMA parallel port, also for higher performance.

Q. Is there any way to disable DMA transfers, if needed?
A. DMA transfer mode cannot be disabled.

Q. Can I use 2.88MB diskette drives in the ValuePoint Performance Series
systems?
A. Yes, the Performance Series supports 2.88MB drives.

Q. How many hard disk drives are supported?
A. Standard support is two drives; up to four hard disk drives can be supported
internally with the ValuePoint IDE Hardfile Cable Option (P/N 06H3610).

Q. Can I use SCSI hard disk drives?
A. Yes, with an optional SCSI adapter.

Q. What is the power supply wattage?
A. 100 watts for the 6382 and 6472; 200 watts for the 6384, 6387, 6482, and
6484; 250 watts for the 6492 and 6494.

Problems/Errors
Q. I just upgraded my system to an Intel Pentium, and now some of my DOS
programs won't run under OS/2 2.1 (or OS/2 2.1 for Windows) anymore--and, in
fact, hang the system.  What happened?
A. A small number of DOS programs use drivers that attempt to directly access
the processor.  This technique worked with earlier processors but may not with
some newer processors, such as the Pentium and 486SLC3.  While not a hardware
failure or OS/2 bug, the OS/2 developers have nevertheless created a patch that
should allow the programs to run with those processors under OS/2 2.1.  To
request APAR #PJ09814 from the IBM Support Center at 800-992-4777.  (By the
way, all Pentium- and 486SLC3-based IBM PS/2s and ValuePoints that are
preloaded with OS/2 2.1x already have this patch applied.)  A brief list of
those DOS apps known to require this patch (but there might be others as well)
includes:

 Animator Pro                     Microsoft CLOCK01.EXE
 Castle Wolfenstein               Multimedia Explorer
 Color Tools                      Multiplan
 Flight Simulator                 Paradox
 Leisure Suit Larry               Qbasic
 Linkway Live!                    Stealth Fighter
 Lumena                           Storyboard Live!
 Mannequin                        Vines
 Media Master
 Microsoft Diagnostics (MSD)      All debuggers

 Q. I'm having trouble with my ValuePoint hanging occasionally during bootup.
 What's wrong?
 A. Some of the ValuePoint models (6381-Mxx, and 6384-18x/19x--or P60/D), and
 various non-IBM PCs, use a Standard Microsystems Corp. (SMC) super-I/O
 controller.  This controller has a microcode problem that can cause the system
 to lock up when accessing the FIFO mode of the controller UART from OS/2 2.x
 or Windows 3.1.  To test whether this is the problem with your system, 1) Turn
 on the PC, and then the modem (before the OS/2 logo screen appears); 2) From
 an OS/2 command prompt window, issue the following command: MODE
 COM1:2400,N,8,1.  If your system hangs at this point, you have the problem SIO
 chip.  (If you have no external devices attached to your serial port(s), or
 you have only an internal modem, then this is not the cause of your
 unexplained hangs during bootup.)  For an OS/2 2.1 patch to work around the
 SMC controller bug, call 800-992-4777 and request APAR #PJ13341.  This patch
 is built into OS/2 Warp 3.0 or later. |

 Q. I have heard that there is a problem with the 340MB hard drives in
 ValuePoint 63xx systems.  Please explain. |
 A. A number of Western Digital 340MB drives shipped in a specific serial
 number range of ValuePoint systems may lose data in a very specific situation
 (a disk write to cache followed immediately by powering off the system can
 lose the data stored in cache).  There is a fix for this problem (a microcode
 patch for the drive available from IBM technical support or WD).  In the
 interim, a fix that will prevent data loss is to add the following statement
 to AUTOEXEC.BAT: VERIFY ON.  This will force the cache to be written to disk
 before the system is shut down, but at a small performance " hit." Once the
 microcode fix is applied, the Verify statement can be removed.  The hard drive
 does NOT need to be replaced!  Also, unless the ValuePoint system is within a
 specific serial number range, and has a 340MB hard drive, it is not affected.
 The serial number ranges (by model) are as follows: 6384-K70: 23TRLHZ-23TTAHW,
 6384-K71: 23CHKWC-23CKAAT, 6384-M70: 23VDRGC-23VGYBN, 6384-M71:
 23DWBZT-23DWRLF, 6384-W70: 23VWGYK-23VYABV, 6384-W71: 23GMDFW-23GNBBV,
 6387-M70: 23AA048-23AB951, 6387-M71: 23F0000-23F2766.  WD 340MB drives shipped
 in these models after these serial number ranges already have the updated
 microcode applied.  Only these models and serial number ranges are affected.

 Q. I'm having trouble getting an IRMA emulation adapter to work in my
 ValuePoint.  Is this a known problem?
 A. Yes.  Contact DCA (404-740-0300, voice; 404-8428, BBS) for a fix.

 Service
 Q.  What is the service part number (FRU) for the PS/VP systems' lithium
 battery?
 A.  The FRU is number 33F8354.  Use only this part number.

 Miscellaneous
 Q. Are there any methods of securing my system against theft?
 A. Yes, there are "punch outs" in all systems to allow the user to install a
 U-bolt to anchor the system.

 Q. Is there a lock on the system?
 A. Yes, each system is provided with a lock and two keys.

 Q. Can I password protect my system?
 A. Yes, there is a power-on password and an administrator password.

 Q. What is the Advanced Power Management of the Performance Series?
 A. Advanced Power Management, Version 1.1, consists of several layers of
 microcode and software that provide a cooperative environment in which
 applications, operating systems, device drivers, and BIOS work together to
 reduce power consumption. The Performance Series systems come with power
 management features already set up. The Configuration Utility program has a
 default setting of 30 minutes for automatically initiating power management of
 the display, processor, and hard disk.

 Q. What is the Plug and Play feature in my ValuePoint Performance Series
 system?
 A. All Performance Series systems support the Plug and Play specifications
 designed to make it easier for users to install, upgrade, and make changes to
 their personal computers.  Plug and Play systems utilizing Plug and Play
 adapter cards are self-configuring when used with a P-n-P operating system,
 such as OS/2 Warp 4.0, or Windows 95. |

 Q. Where is the system serial number located?  I can't seem to find it.
 A. There are two places you can find it: 1) Below the key lock on the metal
 casing, and 2) On the back of the unit, just above the keyboard plug, on the
 label.

 Q. Are the ValuePoint systems Novell-certified?
 A. Yes.  ValuePoints as workstations work fine as is.  For a NetWare 2.2
 server, have your dealer download PSISA.COM from directory 33 on the IBM
 Technical Advisor BBS to get the necessary Server driver.  For a NetWare 3.11
 server, download IDE386.EXE from directory 34 on the same BBS.

(8z) The VESA Advanced Power Management (APM) Specification, Version 1.1
consists of several layers of microcode (BIOS) and software that provide an
environment in which applications, operating systems, device drivers, and BIOS
work together to progressively reduce power consumption in stages.
VESA-standard power-saving modes include (in order of power reduction):
Standby, Suspend, Idle, and Off.  Power-saving techniques include slowing the
processor speed after a certain amount of time, turning off the hard drive,
turning off the processor and other electronic components, and so on. Similar
techniques are used routinely in laptop computers.  Suspend mode uses less
power than Standby, but takes longer to return to normal operation.  Idle mode
is more thrifty still, but even slower to return than Suspend.  Off mode saves
the most power, but can take as long as 30 seconds to return to normal.
