- SolveIt! v4.2s (rev. 8/92) DISK #1 of 2
-
- This interim release 1) improves upon the documentation, 2) includes a new
- install routine if distributed on disk (as opposed to via BBSs), 3)
- announces our NEW ADDRESS and 4) corrects any and all known bugs.
-
- To Install SolveIt!, you must have an MS-DOS/PC-DOS (IBM compatible)
- computer running DOS v2.1 or greater. You must have a hard drive with at
- least 1.6mb of FREE disk space. You may run the program on a 720K floppy, but
- you have to have a hard drive to install it first. You also need 512k of
- free RAM.
-
- AUTOMATIC INSTALL:
-
- If this version came to you via DISK, you should have 2 disks (for 3.5"
- disks, you MAY have only one disk), insert Disk #1 into drive A: or B: and
- enter INSTALL. For example, if you put Disk #1 into drive A: enter:
-
- A:INSTALL
-
- This will start the automatic installation process. Just follow the on
- screen prompts. That's all there is to it! The install program, will NOT
- modify any of your .SYS or .BAT files. We strongly recommend that you
- use the supplied INSTALL program.
-
- MANUAL INSTALL:
-
- If you do not wish to use the install program, you can perform a manual
- installation. Just follow these steps to install disk #1:
-
- To install SolveIt! using the manual method, we suggest that you do the
- following:
-
- C:>CD \ <enter> You may use any hard drive, not just C:>
- C:>MD SLVIT42 <enter>
- C:>CD \SLVIT42 <enter>
- C:>COPY A:*.* <enter> or substitute B: for A: if disk is in B:
- C:>SLV4DOC <enter> Decompresses the documentation files.
- C:>Del Slv4doc.exe <enter> Gets rid of the unnecessary archieve file.

-
- The automatic install program, First Impression (c), is provided under
