INSTALLATION >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>  AUTOMATIC

TYPE AT THE A>'GO' {FOR EACH DISK}

THIS WILL COPY THE FILES TO YOUR HARD DISK, UNCOMPRESS THEM AND GET THEM READY FOR THE FINAL SETUP UNDER WINDOWS 'FILE' - 'RUN'.

SO, WHEN DONE -- RUN FILE - AND THEN 'RUN' FROM THE FILE MANAGER AND TYPE '\PX999ION\SETUP' AND THE PROGRAM WILL INSTALL AUTOMATICALLY.  If you have trouble with this for whatever reason, go to the manual installation which
gives all the steps to install manually.

The reason that this program might not install perfectly the automatic method is because our distributors sometimes make changes to the order of the files or the number of diskettes that they sell because of the different format of all the different drives out there.  We cannot plan for all these possible ways of distributing our program so we give you the automatic way it should install as above and the manual way to get it installed below.  Please bear with us.  


INSTALLATION  >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>   MANUAL

   FIRST:  Copy all the diskettes you received to a subdir
            on your hard drive called '\px999ion'. 
           

            get to a DOS prompt and type 'MD\PX999ION'

THEN TYPE ...
            C>'CD\PX999ION'
            C>COPY A:*.* 

PUT THE NEXT DISK IN THE DRIVE AND REPEAT THE ABOVE COMMAND SO THAT ALL FILES ARE COPIED INTO THIS SUBDIRECTORY.

THEN - IN WINDOWS - PULL DOWN THE 'FILE' MENU
 
   LOOK DOWN AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS MENU AND CLICK ON ...  'RUN' COMMAND.

A DIALOG BOX POPS UP ASKING YOU THE FILE NAME TO RUN.

   TYPE IN THIS BOX '\px999ion\setup'

THAT'S ABOUT IT.  WINDOWS WILL AUTOMATICALLY INSTALL OUR PROGRAM.  

NOW, JUST CLICK ON THE ICON AND THE PROGRAM WILL RUN.

4.  You will see a list of installed drivers.
5.  If you don't see 'MCI AUTODESK ANIMATION DRIVER' ...
