================================================ TROUBLE-SHOOTING FOR INSTALLING MAGIC DESK MENU ================================================ I. I have installed MAGIC DESK menu, but there are no icons on the menu and I cannot launch any program. Possible Answers: 1. You may have chosen the wrong hard drive/ CD-ROM combination. Simply re-run the installation routine. 2. You have chosen the right hard drive/ CD-ROM combination, but your hard disk is NOT set at root level when you run the installation. So MAGIC DESK was installed as a subdirectory of another program. To correct, exit from the default directory of your hard disk to the root directory, then re-run the installation menu and choose the correct hard disk/ CD-ROM combination to re-install MAGIC DESK. =============================== BACK-UP INSTALLATION ROUTINES =============================== If for any reason that you could not install the MAGIC DESK menu through our regular installation procedures, you can use the following steps to manually installing the menu programs. We have the installation files of 36 different hard disk and CD-ROM combinations in the INSTALL directory of the CD-ROM. To figure out which files is for your hardware, use the follow examples: CDRDDR.EXE Means hard drive "C" with CD-ROM "D" DDREDR.EXE "D" "E" GDRIDR.EXE "G" "I" The first letter of the file name refers to the hard disk letter that you want MAGIC DESK to copy to; the fourth letter refers to the CD-ROM drive letter. ========================================== NON-AUTOMATIC INSTALLATION OF MAGIC DESK: ========================================== 1. Log into the ROOT level of your hard disk (e.g. C) and type MD SVI_MG 2. Then log into the new directory by typing CD SVI_MG 3. Copy the installation files for your hardware combination; for examples: * if you have hard disk "C" and CD-ROM "D", type: COPY D:\INSTALL\CDRDDR.EXE * if you have hard disk "D" and CD-ROM "E", type: COPY E:\INSTALL\DDREDR.EXE 4. Then uncompress the installation files, this will take about 2-3 minutes. Simple type the name of installation file. e.g.: CDRDDR 5. You may delete the compressed installation file if you want to save disk space (e.g. CDRDDR.EXE) 6. Type "GO" to run MAGIC DESK.
