- ****************************** Managing Your Money Ver. 1.5 *******
-
- Those people who have Andrew Tobias' MANAGING YOUR MONEY and a
- Hard Disk find it very inconvenient to put Disk 1 in Drive A
- to start up MYM. Below is an update to MYM Version 1.5 for
- people with Hard Disks to bypass this problem. If you have
- only floppy disks drives, this procedure won't help much.
-
- First, make sure you run INSTALL and specify MYM is to be run
- using a Hard Disk.
-
- Second, make a copy of MYM.EXE using the following DOS command
- making sure that MYM.EXE is on your Hard Disk:
- COPY MYM.EXE MYM.PGM /V
-
- Third, run DEBUG against MYM.PGM as follows with your input to
- DEBUG shown by the arrow "-->" :
-
- --> C>debug mym.pgm
- --> -d 4709 470d
- XXXX:4709 B8 01 02 CD 13
- --> -d 4744 4745
- XXXX:4744 75 CF
- --> -d efd0 efdf
- XXXX:EFD0 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00-00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
- --> -r cx
- CX EFD0
- --> : <cr>
-
- If the above 4 displays do not show the same output, you are
- probability at a different level of MYM and will have to figure
- out a corresponding update using data from above and below.
-
- --> -a 4709
- --> XXXX:4709 jmp efd0
- --> XXXX:470C xor ax,ax
- --> XXXX:470E <cr>
- --> -a 4744
- --> XXXX:4744 nop
- --> XXXX:4745 nop
- --> XXXX:4746 <cr>
- --> -a efd0
- --> XXXX:EFD0 push bx
- --> XXXX:EFD1 mov ax,1453
- --> XXXX:EFD4 mov [bx],al
- --> XXXX:EFD6 inc bx
- --> XXXX:EFD7 dec ah
- --> XXXX:EFD9 jnz efd4
- --> XXXX:EFDB pop bx
- --> XXXX:EFDC jmp 470c
- --> XXXX:EFDF <cr>
- --> -r cx
- CX EFD0
- --> :efe0
- --> -w
- Writing EFE0 bytes
- --> -q
- C>
-
- Finally, rename MYM.EXE to MYM.BAK . Then rename MYM.PGM to
- MYM.EXE . MYM.BAK is now your unmodified, original MYM program.
- Save it incase the new version does not work. Your should no
- longer need to put Disk 1 in Drive A again.
-
- NOTE: if you run the updated version of MYM.EXE from a floppy
- disk, you will be prompted to put Disk 1,2 or 3 in other drives.
- This new version must be installed using INSTALL specifying a
- Hard Disk and must executed from a Hard Disk to work.

- HOW TO RUN "MANAGING YOUR MONEY(tm)" FROM A
- HARD DISK WITHOUT THE "KEY" DISK AND
- WITHOUT PROGRAM MODIFICATIONS
-
- If you wish to run "Managing Your Money" (including version
- 2.0) from a hard disk, but are annoyed by the requirement for
- having the original disk 1 in drive A, then read on....
-
- Part of this ARC file is the program "MYMFIX.COM". All you have to
- do is to include this program in your "autoexec" file when running
- Managing Your Money. For instance, your "autoexec.bat" might look like
- this:
-
- DATE
- TIME
- MYMFIX (to install "MYMFIX")
- MYM
- MYMFIX (to uninstall "MYMFIX")
-
- That's all there is to it. MYM will no longer look for the key
- disk in drive A. If you are using version 2.0 of MYM, when the
- request is made to put the key disk in drive A, simply proceed as
- though you had actually inserted the disk.
-
- A request:
-
- If you find this program of value and wish to encourage the
- availability of similar programs in the future, then you may wish
- to contribute $10 to the author at the address below:
