- ===== Installation =====================================
-
- Installation
-
- Bert's Coloring Programs require an IBM compatible computer with at
- least 512K of memory, a VGA display and a Microsoft compatible mouse. A
- Sound Blaster card is optional. The program installation process is
- quite easy. (Users obtaining .ZIP files from the Internet or a BBS can
- skip this installation section.)
- First, make a backup copy of your Bert's Coloring Programs program
- disk. If necessary consult your PC-DOS/MS-DOS manual for a description
- of the DISKCOPY command. Save the original program disk in a safe place
- and use the copy as the working program disk.
- Second, while it is possible to use Bert's Coloring Programs on a
- floppy disk system, a hard disk system is a necessity for reasonable
- speed and storing a number of pictures your child has created. To
- install Bert's Coloring Programs on a hard disk use the following steps:
-
- 1. Insert the floppy disk in your computer in drive A. (or B if
- necessary)
- 2. Type A: (or B:)
- 3. Type INSTALL A C (or INSTALL B C)
-
- Any hard drive letters can be used, for example INSTALL B D will
- install the program from floppy drive B to hard drive D. The
- installation will create a directory called BERT4 on your hard drive and
- you will need to enter a CD\BERT4 to change to the Bert's Coloring
- Programs directory before running the program. Once installed just type
- BERT to start the program. If your computer gives a series of beeps when
- you run Bert's Coloring Programs it is probably because it cannot find
- the image files it needs to run, and other problems may be showing up as
- well. All the files for Bert's Coloring Programs need to be in the same
- directory for the program to operate successfully. You should not mix
- the .DOT image files from Bert's Coloring Programs with those of
- versions previous to 3.0 as they are in a different format.
