-
- MultiVu has been designed to require a minimum amount of technical
- support. If you have any questions about the product, you can often
- answer them yourself by browsing or searching the on-line, hypertext
- help or the file README.1ST. If you cannot answer your questions by
- using these resources, you can contact us in several ways: via mail,
- telephone, or CompuServe.
-
- Technical support is included with the purchase price for ninety
- (90) days after date of registration. We will answer your
- questions and fix serious bugs that are identified during this
- time. For problems involving a specific hardware or software
- environment or feature, Ivden may choose not to modify the program.
-
- In this case, if the problem is reported within the ninety-day
- period, we will offer to refund your purchase price.
-
- If you contact us by mail, please explain the problem and circumstances
- surrounding it in as much detail as possible. If there seems to be a
- conflict with a specific application you are using the product with,
- specify the application and, if it is not readily available commercially,
- send us the files on a diskette. Mail these items to the address
- displayed in the opening screen.
-
- If you contact us by telephone at (215) 322-8205 and we are not
- present to answer, please leave as detailed a question or problem
- description as possible, as well as your name, phone number, and
- registration number. Our answering machine is accessible 24 hours a
- day. We will contact you within a day providing you leave us phone
- numbers where you can be reached at various times during the day.
-
- If you have access to CompuServe, you can contact us via CompuServe
- Mail at 71221,3602. You can also reach us at Support BBS at
- (215) 322-5114. We will answer your message as soon as possible.
-
- Before calling for customer support, please make sure that you have
- followed the steps on the "pre-call checklist" below.
-
- PRE-CALL CHECKLIST FOR CUSTOMER SUPPORT
-
- 1. If you are having difficulty understanding the software or if you
- are not sure whether or how to use a feature, have you browsed or
- searched the on-line, hypertext help? It may contain the answer
- to your question.
-
- 2. If there seems to be a problem with the software, have you been
- able to reproduce the problem? Do you know what sequence of
- operations or set of circumstances causes it?
-
- 3. If the software displayed an error message, did you write down
- the exact message?
-
- 4. You should be familiar with the hardware configuration you are
- using. We may need to know the brand/model of your computer and
- it's BIOS, the total amount of conventional, extended, and
- expanded memory available when you loaded Windows, the
- type of video adapter(s) you have in your system, and the
- operating system version and mode, i.e., real, standard, or
- 386 enhanced.
-
- If you are running MultiVu on a network, we need to know the
- installed network hardware and software. Other software in use,
- such as other loaded Windows and DOS programs and device drivers,
- may be important.
