Program CTABLE Installation Notes
Program CTABLE is self-installing. The first time the program is run it will
ask which word processor you wish to install it for and give you the
opportunity to set colors if you wish. You can repeat the installation process
later by executing CTABLE with a /I parameter. Run CTABLE with no parameters
to view a one screen description of CTABLE operation and options.
HARDWARE PROBLEM: I have received reports that the CTABLE installation
procedure fails resulting in a SYSTEM CRASH on some but not all EGA systems.
Therefore, if you own an EGA display adapter the following precaution should be
heeded: Be absolutely sure that any data stored in RAM (particularly if you
use a RAM disk) is properly backed up on disk so that a system crash can not
cause any data loss. Only then should attempt to install CTABLE by running it
for the first time or using the /I option.
If a system crash does occur or if you wish to avoid the possibility of a
crash altogether, you can configure your EGA card to use CGA emulation.
Under CGA mode on the EGA the installation procedure works without problem.
Note that once CTABLE has been installed it may be run in EGA mode without
problem; ONLY the installation procedure is affected by this problem.
