There is probably enough information here, and on POWERKIT's opening screen
for experienced users to load it and test it. For more detail, TYPE the user's
manual, POWERKIT.DOC, to printer or screen. HERCULES DISPLAY CARD USERS: Do
NOT turn on the screen blanking option, as it might damage your card.
Tyros should TYPE and read the user's manual before operating POWERKIT. To
do this, make sure your printer is on, the print head is near the top of a
sheet of paper, the file POWERKIT.DOC is on drive "A", say, then enter:
TYPE A:POWERKIT.DOC >PRN <press ENTER>
On some machines, the ENTER key is labeled RETURN, on others a downward and
leftward pointing, right-angled ARROW. Leave out >PRN when TYPING to the
display. There are ten pages in the manual.
INSTALLATION: To operate POWERKIT, the file POWERKIT.OBJ must be on your boot
disk, and the line: DEVICE=POWERKIT.OBJ (instructions to POWERKIT may go here)
must be in the CONFIG.SYS file on your boot disk. Ideally, this line should
be the FIRST line in your CONFIG.SYS file. Your boot disk is the floppy disk
you place in disk drive "A" when you turn the machine on, unless you have a
hard disk drive, in which case your boot disk is the hard disk. If you do not
have a file named CONFIG.SYS on your boot disk, transfer the CONFIG.SYS file
that comes with this package to your boot disk at the same time you transfer
POWERKIT.OBJ. To transfer these files, boot up, put the disk containing
POWERKIT.OBJ and CONFIG.SYS in floppy disk drive "B", then type:
COPY B:POWERKIT.OBJ <press ENTER>
COPY B:CONFIG.SYS <press ENTER>
If your machine has only one floppy disk drive and no hard disk drive, drive
"B" is also drive "A", and the above procedure will involve swapping your boot
disk with the POWERKIT.OBJ disk, and back again. Reboot your computer,
POWERKIT will let you know if it is loaded.
