Amstrad PC1512 Personal Computer User Instructions - Book 1.



The AMSTRAD PC is a powerful 16-bit personal computer, which

you can use both in the office and in the home. For example, it could

help you to prepare letters or to carry out routine office tasks at

work, it could help you budget ahead and so keep in credit at the

bank, and it can run computer games when you want to relax.

The AMSTRAD PC has been designed so that it can run the same programs as many of today's microcomputers. For example, it can run the same programs as an IBM PC. You could, for example, take the disk you use to run your word processing program on an IBM PC and use it directly in your AMSTRAD PC.


The AMSTRAD PC is supplied to you with:

Microsoft's MS-DOS Version 3.2

Digital Research's GEM Version 2.0

- Locomotive Software's BASIC 2

Digital Research's DOS Plus Version 1.2

MS-DOS's role is to supervise the work your AMSTRAD PC carries out. It also provides tools for keeping your stored information and programs organised.

GEM presents the facilities of your machine and the facilities of your programs graphically - through pictures and menus on the screen.

You tell your AMSTRAD PC what you want to do by just pointing to the relevant part of the screen display and clicking a button on the

PC's mouse.

An increasing number of programs take advantage of the facilities provided by GEM. But running these programs isn't the only use to

which you can put GEM: you can use it to load and run all the other programs you buy for your AMSTRAD PC and you can use it in

keeping your work organised. The part of GEM that helps you with all these tasks is called the GEM Desktop - because it is designed to

make working with your computer as easy as working at a desk.

Locomotive BASIC 2 is provided for when you want to write your own programs. BASIC 2 is a powerful, GEM-based programming

system that helps you:

- to write fully structured programs involving complex data manipulation and filehandling, with the aid of a menu-driven program editor
