- This is not entirely correct (don't name the file fax.bat, name it something else) but I've
- included it because it tells how to do certain WPS operations better than I did.

- o Intel SatisFAXtion
-
- - The installation program displays the
- message "You have inserted the wrong
- diskette" when changing from disk one to
- disk two. After the error message is
- displayed, press Enter and the program
- will continue with installation.
- - At the end of installation of the Intel
- SatisFAXtion you are told to remove the
- diskette and press any key to reboot your
- machine. Instead, shut down the operating
- system and restart your computer.
- - If SatisFAXtion software is loaded into
- each DOS session, it might cause the fax
- to stop if another DOS session is started.
- Set up one DOS session to be used for
- faxing, and load the device driver and
- executable files only into that DOS
- session. To do this, take the following
- steps:
- 1. Edit AUTOEXEC.BAT.
- 2. Cut the last two lines referring to
- the Intel SatisFAXtion board to the
- clipboard and save the file (using DOS
- Command File for the file type).
- 3. Open a New file.
- 4. Paste the last two lines into the new
- file.
- 5. Save the new file as FAX.BAT, using
- DOS Command File as the file type.
- 6. Edit CONFIG.SYS and cut the last two
- lines relating to the Intel
- SatisFAXtion board to the clipboard
- (cut only the last line if you do not
- have a scanner installed).
- 7. Save the file using Plain Text as the
- file type.
- 8. In the Command Prompts folder, select
- a DOS Full Screen icon, press the Ctrl
- key and mouse button two at the same
- time, move the mouse pointer to an
- empty area in the folder, and release
- the mouse button and the Ctrl key.
- This creates a copy of DOS Full
- Screen.
- 9. Put the mouse pointer over your new
- icon and press button two.
- 10. Click on the arrow next to Open, and
- select Settings.
- 11. Go to the Session page and select the
- DOS settings push button.
- 12. Go to DOS_DEVICE and press mouse
- button one. Move the mouse to the
- dialog area and press button one
- (there should be a blinking cursor
- now).
- 13. Paste the text that you cut from the
- CONFIG.SYS file and select Save.
- 14. Go to the General page and replace the
- contents of the Title box with FAX (or
- whatever other title you choose).
- 15. If you want to edit the new session's
- icon, go to the General page and
- select the Edit push button.
- 16. If you want to have this session start
- each time your system starts, move the
- icon to the Start Up folder.
- 17. Whenever you start this session, type
- FAX to run the FAX.BAT file before
- using the SatisFAXtion board.
- Use the fax board in only one session at a
- time.
- - If you install using this procedure and
- you receive error messages, install the
- program under DOS.
