Overview
The AcerPower 8600 is an all-in-one, high-performance system that
supports the Intel Pentium III CPU. It utilizes the PCI (Peripheral
Component Interface) and the AGP (Accelerated Graphics Port) bus
designs. Both designs improve system performance, enabling the
system to support various multimedia functions and applications.
Aside from the standard I/O (Input/Output) interfaces such as two
serial ports, one parallel port, and PS/2 keyboard and mouse ports, the
system also comes with two USB (Universal Serial Bus) ports, one
mono Microphone-in port, one stereo Line-in port, one Line-out port,
and one Game/MIDI (Musical Instrument Digital Interface) port.
These additional ports are included to enable the system to
accommodate additional peripherals.
The system may also come with an onboard AGP video controller, an
interface for LCD, a TV out port, an onboard audio controller, an
external fax/modem card and/or a network card. These additional
features offer special functions that will enable you to take full
advantage of the system. Special features such as hardware
monitoring, USB, power management, video and audio functions are
discussed in this manual.
Furthermore, this system is fully compatible with MS-DOS v6.X, OS/
2, SCO UNIX, Windows 95/98 and Windows NT operating systems.
