HDM IV (tm) (ASP)
Hard Disk Menu (tm) October 1991
Copyright (c) 1986-91 by Jim Hass All rights reserved world wide
To install HDM IV for the first time or update an existing HDM:
1. Put the HDM IV diskette in drive A:
2. Key in A:INSTALL (A:INSTALL -V to force monochrome video.)
3. Use the default install-from diskette drive and install to C:\HDM
or press <F2> to change the drive and directory for installation.
4. Then press <Enter> to start the installation process.
5. After all files are copied, your AUTOEXEC.BAT will be checked.
If HDM is already in the DOS path and the last two lines change
to the HDM directory and start HDM, the installation is complete.
If not, INSTALL will ask if you want it to update or create the
AUTOEXEC.BAT file for you. If you answer yes, your AUTOEXEC.BAT
will be renamed to AUTOEXEC.OLD before it is updated, otherwise
INSTALL will end without making any changes.
Note: INSTALL will retain any menu entries you have already created.
If you don't put the HDM startup in your AUTOEXEC.BAT file, you can
start it like this: (1) Change to the HDM directory (CD \HDM)
(2) key in HDM and press <ENTER>.
After starting HDM IV, press <F1> and read the Help Screens.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
These are the files you need to run the Hard Disk Menu:
HDM.BAT The batch file that must start the Hard Disk Menu System.
HDM4.EXE The main program used by the Hard Disk Menu system.
HDM.000-999 Files used by HDM IV to hold configuration and menu info.
HDMHELP.EXE Hard Disk Menu help. (only needed if you press F1)
DIAL.EXE HDM phone dialer. (only needed if using {DIAL} function)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The file ORDER.DOC contains special offers and discounts on HDM and a
phone number for additional information about ordering the product.
To print the order/registration form, go to the DOS prompt and change
to the HDM directory. Key in: COPY ORDER.DOC LPT1
HISTORY.DOC contains a list of the latest changes made to HDM.
SECURITY.DOC explains the new multi-level security system.
HDM.DOC is a 100+ page User's Manual. If you received HDM on a disk
the DOC files may be in a self-extracting archive file, HDMDOC.EXE.
There are also other utilities and documentation on the disk that are
not required to run HDM. You may find some of them useful.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
This is a fully functional program. It is not a demo and not crippled
in any way. All features are documented in the on-disk manual. If you
have trouble using the program or believe you did not receive all the
files, please contact us with the name & address of the vendor, date
received, and version number.
POSSIBLE PROBLEMS WHEN RUNNING HDM IV:
If your screen is unreadable because of current color selections,
start with the -V switch. You might need this for a laptop.
If HDM doesn't seem to run correctly, check the following:
Make sure you have only one COMMAND.COM on your hard disk in the
root directory, and you have a path to it. Make sure you also
have a path to the HDM directory and that you start HDM while
in its own directory using HDM.BAT, not the HDM4.EXE file.
Example of starting HDM from your AUTOEXEC.BAT: PATH C:\;C:\HDM
CD\HDM
HDM -V
