- ===== Installation =====================================
-
- The installation procedure for GEOSS is quite simple. The
- package includes a program, "INSTALL.EXE", which automates the
- entire process. You will need about 2 meg of available disk space
- on the hard drive on which you plan to install GEOSS.
-
- The exact steps you need to take will depend on how you received
- GEOSS Geometry Screen Savers.
-
-
- INSTALLING FROM DISKETTES
-
- To install from diskette(s), you need to perform the following steps.
-
- o Place GEOSS distribution diskette "Disk 1" in the
- appropriate diskette drive.
-
- o Execute the "INSTALL.EXE" program on the distribution diskette.
- For example, if the distribution diskette is on drive A:, Choose
- File - Run from Windows, and execute, "a:install".
-
- o Follow the instructions presented by the installation program.
- The program will copy the Screen Saver files to your Windows
- directory. It will make no other changes; specifically, it will
- not modify your autoexec.bat, config.sys, or .ini files.
-
-
- INSTALLING FROM A HARD DRIVE
-
- If you downloaded GEOSS from a BBS (or received it in the form of
- archive files from some other source), you will need to perform the
- following steps.
-
- o Extract the contents of the archive file(s) in a temporary
- directory on your hard drive. The procedure for doing this
- varies, depending on the form in which you received the package.
- In all likelihood, the fact that you are reading this text means
- that you already have the necessary tools and knowledge to
- perform this step. If not, you should be able to obtain
- directions for this from the same source from which you received
- the package.
-
- o Execute the "INSTALL.EXE" program which you have extracted. For
- example, if the temporary directory into which you have extracted
- the game package is C:\TEMPDIR, you would choose File - Run under
- Windows and execute, "c:\tempdir\install".
-
- o Follow the instructions presented by the installation program.
- The program will copy the Screen Saver files to your Windows
- directory. It will make no other changes; specifically, it will not
- modify your autoexec.bat, config.sys, or .ini files.
-
- When you're satisfied that the installation was successful, you should
- delete the temporary directory FROM which you installed GEOSS
- (C:\TEMPDIR, in the above discussion), including all its contents.
-
-
- YOU'RE READY TO GO - select one of the Screen Savers under Windows.
- We hope you enjoy the Geometry Screen Savers.
-
- To remove the Screen Savers, simply run the readme/install program in
- the GEOSS program Group, and select File - Uninstall, to delete all the
- Geometry Screen Savers files from your Windows directory.
