Note
- To avoid taking up too much memory, only a minimal subset of DOS 6.22 is
loaded on the VS 710. Other DOS utilities are available on Tool Diskette 1.
- You cannot copy files from VS 710 back onto a diskette while emulation is in
progress. To do so, try starting INTERSVR.EXE from a suitable
AUTOEXEC.BAT (startup file).
- Time and date settings are lost if the VS 710 is de-energized; for example, if the
power supply fails or if you pull the plug. Backups are not made.
