Prior to starting this program there are a few things you should check on
your system:
1. Do you have a CONFIG.SYS file and if so does it have at least 30 files?
To check, go to your root directory on your hard drive (CD\, then return)
or put your DOS Disk in your floppy drive and and then enter TYPE
CONFIG.SYS. If you get File Not Found, see below. If you get a display it
might look like this:
FILES=20
BUFFERS=49
DEVICE=C:\DOS\ANSI.SYS
Since the files listed are below 30 you will need to increase the files
value.
The CONFIG.SYS file can be changed with any word processor that will save a
file in ASCII.
If you do not have a CONFIG.SYS file, the following will create one for
you:
COPY CON CONFIG.SYS (Return)
FILES=30 (Return)
BUFFERS=20 (Return)
(Then Hit The F6 KEY)
It is important that you reboot your system after altering the
CONFIG.SYS file, so that your computer will use the new information.
If you are using LOADHI for Files, this will not work for this program
FILES=30 must be in low memory.
If you ever get an OPEN ERROR during the operation of this program and the
file named is in the proper place, try increasing your files, some other
program may be using a portion of the 30 required by this one.
2. If you are operating an 80286 or 80386 system, and you have over 1 Meg
of memory, use the command UNIEMM to start the program. See READ1ST.DOC
for details.
3. If you use a mouse, be sure you have included the appropriate mouse
driver in your CONFIG.SYS file. Without this the program will not be able
to access your mouse.
