Disk #:191* Title:LOTTO BUSTER V. 5.0 READ.ME File
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
UN-ARCHIVING THE LOTTO BUSTER PROGRAM
Version 5.0 is quite large due to the pull down menus and "windowing"
effects used in the program. It will be necessary to un-archive
the programs onto a separate disk.
FLOPPY DISK USERS: Simply place the current disk in drive A and
a newly formatted disk in drive B and type the command UNARC B:
Don't forget the colon. The disk will un-archive to the B drive.
There is only enough room on the floppy to hold 1 lottery. If
you are using more than one lottery you'll need to make another
copy. The program can include more than on lottery but you'll need
a hard disk for that.
HARD DISK USERS: Place the Lotto Buster disk in drive A and enter
UNARC C: You may also use D:, E:, or F:. The un-archiving pro-
ceedure will automatically make a new directory LOTTO and un-
archive the program for you.
After un-archiving the LOTTO BUSTER diskette, make a backup copy.
Follow the instructions in your DOS manual for this procedure.
NOTE TO 5 1/4" FLOPPY DISK USERS ONLY.
Since the disk is completely full, there is only room for one
lottery on the disk. You'll have to DELETE LOTTO AMERICA
before you can place another lottery on the disk.
That file can be deleted from within the program by going to
the file delete mode.
IF YOU ARE CONVERTING FROM A EARLIER ISSUE OF LOTTO BUSTER IT
WILL BE NECESSARY TO COPY THE UN-ARCHIVED DISK ONTO ANOTHER DISK.
When this is done place the copied disk in drive B and the previous
issue of LOTTO BUSTER in drive A.
Go to the B prompt and enter the following:
DEL AMERICA.LOT
DEL REGISTER.EXE
COPY A:LOTTO.DAT
This will place the old lottery on your newly copied disk.
REMOVE THE OLD LOTTERY DISK AND INSERT THE ORIGINAL UN-ARCHIVED
DISK IN DRIVE A
Start the program and go directly to the conversion menu. Follow
through with the conversion and exit the program.
Then enter the following:
COPY A:REGISTER.EXE
This will restore your regisration module onto the disk.
=======================IMPORTANT VGA MONITOR USERS=============================
VGA USERS: Lotto Buster will run on your VGA monitor but it will
be necessary to use the software supplied with your
monitor to switch it to EGA. Since the procedure
varies from one monitor to the other, consult your
users manual for the proper procedure. Generally it
means running a short program, supplied with the monitor,
to switch it to EGA mode.
