BACKUP YOUR HARD DISK FIRST
===========================
Before installing DiskLock be sure to make a complete backup of
your hard drive. Be sure to keep backup in a safe location.
INSTALLATION
============
1. Make a working copy of the DiskLock diskette using the DISKCOPY command.
Save the original diskette in a safe place.
2. Insert the working diskette into one of your floppy drives,
for example, B:
3. At the B> prompt, type INSTALL then press <Enter>
ATTENTION COMPAQ USERS:
=======================
If you plan to install Disklock on a Compaq computer, it must be running
Compaq DOS version 4.01 or a higher version of Compaq DOS. Disklock
will not run correctly on Compaq computers running Compaq DOS versions
earlier than 4.01. You can find out what version of DOS is running on
your computer by typing "VER" at the DOS prompt.
If you inadvertently install Disklock on a Compaq computer running an
unsupported version of DOS, the computer either will not properly
complete the boot process, or will "lock up" the first time you try to
run an application. If either of these symptoms occur, consult your
manual for instructions on using the "FUNINST" command to uninstall
Disklock using a floppy diskette. Once Disklock is uninstalled, you can
upgrade your DOS version and reinstall Disklock.
UNINSTALLING DISKLOCK
=====================
From the DISKLOCK subdirectory type DL then press <Enter>
Select "Install" and then select the "Uninstall" pull down.
EMERGENCY UNINSTALL
===================
If you are unable to run the DL program you can uninstall from the
working copy of the DiskLock diskette you created. Use the FUNINST
(floppy uninstall) program. Be certain to follow the directions carefully.
FUNINST is a two step procedure that includes rebooting the PC.
DISK CACHING SOFTWARE
=====================
You must be certain to turn off disk caching software, such as
NCACHE or PC-CACHE before installing or uninstalling DISKLOCK.
ADDING NEW HARDWARE OR DRIVERS TO YOUR PC
=========================================
It is recommended that you uninstall DiskLock before adding new
hardware or drivers to your PC. You must also uninstall DiskLock
before uninstalling DOS 5.00.
DISKLOCK DEVICE DRIVER
======================
Once DiskLock is installed on your hard drive, the DiskLock device
driver line should not be removed from your CONFIG.SYS file.
HARD DISK PARTITION DRIVERS
===========================
If you have a partitioned hard drive (i.e. Disk Manager, Speed
Store), your partition device drivers must load before the
DISKLOCK.SYS loads. DISKLOCK.SYS should usually be the last device
driver in the CONFIG.SYS file.
SPINRITE
========
DiskLock is not compatible with SpinRite software. If you use SpinRite
and DiskLock together your hard disk may become unbootable.
MULTI-BOOT SOFTWARE
===================
The DiskLock device driver must be loaded to access DOS. If you are
using Multi-Boot software, the DiskLock device driver must load in
each boot configuration.
MULTI-OPERATING SYSTEMS
=======================
DiskLock is not compatible with machines that have two operating
systems installed on their hard drive. If DiskLock is installed on
a system running multiple systems (i.e. DOS on one partition and
UNIX on another), the non-DOS system will be damaged.
DO NOT LOAD DISKLOCK HIGH
==========================
DISKLOCK.SYS should not be loaded high. The install program will write
the proper line in the CONFIG.SYS file. For example...
DEVICE=C:\DISKLOCK\DISKLOCK.SYS
WINDOWS
=======
The Autolock (timer generated) and HotKey (user activated) lock features
of DiskLock DO NOT work under Microsoft WINDOWS. You must deactivate
the AutoLock by setting it to 00 if you want to run WINDOWS after DiskLock
is activated. You cannot use the HotKey lock while running WINDOWS. You
must exit WINDOWS, then lock your system with your HotKey.
DOS 2.0
=======
DiskLock is incompatible with DOS 2.0
PLUS DEVELOPMENT'S HARD CARDS
=============================
Plus Development's Hard Cards that require the use of device
drivers for operation are NOT compatible with DiskLock. Hard Card
Plus IIXL is not compatible with DiskLock.
FASTBACK and OTHER BACKUP PROGRAMS
==================================
Data encrypted with Proprietary or DES encryption will remain
encrypted on a backup or restore set.
KEY DISK
========
Once you install DiskLock on your hard drive, the diskette you used
becomes a key disk. During installation, DiskLock writes important
information about the system to this diskette. This information will
be necessary to uninstall DiskLock. Make a copy of the key disk as
a precaution; use the DISKCOPY command to make the copy.
Label the disk as a key disk and include the type of machine the
disk was used on. Store the disk in a safe place. Do not use this
key disk to install DiskLock on any other PC.
MOUSE INCOMPATIBILITIES
=======================
The AutoLock feature in DiskLock will not function with Logitech's
Bus mouse.
NETWORKS
========
DiskLock cannot be installed on a File Server but may be installed
on network nodes, including Novell, Lantastic. However, there is
a known incompatibility with the DNA network driver.
INTERNATIONAL CONSIDERATIONS
============================
In DOS 5.00 you may specify your country code and your keyboard type
and code page.
The country code is added to your CONFIG.SYS file. For example...
country=001,,c:\dos\country.sys
The keyboard arrangement and character set are defined in the
AUTOEXEC.BAT file. (Do not use the CONFIG.SYS file!) For example...
In your AUTOEXEC.BAT file:
c:\dos\keyb us,437,c:\dos\keyboard.sys DL*K
This defines your keyboard to be a United States layout using
code page 437. The "DL*K" is required by DiskLock. If you uninstall
DiskLock you must remove the "DL*K" from the end of the line.
QEMM386 VERSION 6
=================
DiskLock will prevent QEMM386 ver. 6 from using any of its "stealth"
techniques. If you were using Stealth prior to DiskLock's installation,
you must rerun QEMM's "Optimize" utility.
