- Welcome to the new 32 bit version for ModemSta 2.0 for Windows95, a complete re-write
- of ModemSta, using Delphi32.
-
- Please read these instructions before continuing with the installation!
- When finished reading, just close this window and continue!
-
-
-
- 1. General comments.
-
- * This version of ModemSta only runs with Windows 95.
- * ModemSta must be started before a communication program opens the port, otherwise
- ModemSta will fail to detect any port information.
-
-
- 2. Automatic installation.
-
- * Run the automatic installation program, install.exe.
- * You can not install ModemSta while on-line! An essential part of the installation
- will fail, see 4, below.
-
-
- 3. Lights.exe
-
- * To correctly show RD activity when connected with 32 bit SLIP/PPP using the Win95 Dialer,
- ModemSta replaces lights.exe in the Windows system directory with its own lights.exe.
- The original lights.exe will be renamed to lights!.exe by the installation program and
- will be restored when uninstalling ModemSta.
- This will fail, if You try to install ModemSta while on-line.
-
- A safety backup copy of the original lights.exe will be made, called lights.exe.Win95,
- in the system directory.
-
-
- 4. Activate "Display modem status".
-
- * You must also make sure the modem lights are enabled from inside the Windows 95
- internet configuration program. (Usually, it is.)
- Follow these steps to enable the Windows 95 modem lights tray applet:
- 1. Double-click the My Computer icon on the Windows 95 desktop.
- 2. Double-click the Dial-Up Networking icon.
- 3. Right-click on the connection icon for your internet service provider and select
- Properties from the popup menu.
