(We frequently refer to Integrity Master by its nickname, "IM")
Once you install Integrity Master, there will be only two files you
absolutely need to use Integrity Master:
IM.EXE - Integrity Master itself
IM.PRM - The parameter file which controls how IM works
- This file is created by SETUPIM.EXE
If you want to reinstall IM, or change advanced features of IM, you will need:
SETUPIM.EXE - The setup and install program (It creates and updates IM.PRM)
When you install IM, SetupIM will create file:
IMPROC.TXT - Complete instructions to finish install and run IM
IM.PRM - The parameter file (all option settings are stored here)
IMCONFIG.SYS - Sample CONFIG.SYS file for floppies (optional)
When you run (initialize) IM, it will create ")(.ID" files. These files
contain the integrity data describing your files. Files: BOOT.SID,
BOOT.SRL, PART.SID and PART.SRL contain system sector integrity (.SID) and
reload (.SRL) information.

New Integrity Master features which affect its use (supplement to I-M.DOC):
The Halt menu which is available as part of the option menu in both IM and
IMSETUP, has two new options. These options replace former halt on "NONE"
option. These options are halt on:
Serious problems
Emergencies Only
"Serious problems" works exactly as the former halt on "NONE" option. IM
will halt only on known viruses, hardware errors or file access problems
such as open or read fail. This option can also be invoked from the
command line by using the "/N" command line option.
"Emergencies Only" will allow IM to run without stopping, unless it encounters
a situation it considers dangerous or one where its findings are in danger of
being lost or invalid. This means IM will continue running on many
hardware errors, file problems (open or read error) and detection of known
viruses in files. This option can be invoked from the command line by
by using the "/NE" command line option.
STATISTICS SUMMARY
We added a summary display to show the results of checking in
detail. This appears on the display and on the report file or printer
after any file checking. Since it contains a time and date stamp, you
can now use the report file as a chronological log of all changes on
your PC even if you have it going to the printer.
