- To Unprotect SAMNA WORD II Version 1.1 ---
-
- Follow these procedures carefully and you will have an unprotected
- version 1.1 of SAMNA WORD II that can be placed on a hard disk or
- copied to a diskette.
-
- 1. Copy all the files from SAMNA DISK 1 to a formatted work disk or
- hard disk volume. All files should be copied into the same directory
- if using DOS 2.xx.
-
- 2. Copy all the files from SAMNA DISK 2 to the same work disk or hard
- disk volume as in step 1.
-
- Now, you will need to "patch" three programs on the working disk using
- DEBUG.
-
- 3. Log onto the drive that contains the working disk (e.g. B: )
-
- 4. Have DEBUG on a disk or volume somewhere.
-
- Patch SAMNA.COM -
- each line below should be typed exactly as shown with the ENTER key after it.
-
- 5. DEBUG SAMNA.COM
- 6. E 5F1 90 90
- 7. E 14BE 90 90
- 8. W
- 9. Q
-
- Patch FILE2 -
-
- 10. DEBUG FILE2
- 11. E C99 E9 43 5F
- 12. W
- 13. Q
-
- Patch INSTALL.COM
-
- 14. DEBUG INSTALL.COM
- 15. E 1FEB 90 90
- 16. W
- 17. Q
-
- Finished with the patches. The patch to INSTALL.COM is only needed to
- install your type of printer.
-
- INSTALLING THE PRINTER -
-
- 1. Log on to the drive containing your patched working SAMNA disk.
- 2. Place the SAMNA PRINTER DISK (a copy or write-protected original)
- into another disk drive.
- 3. Type INSTALL
- 4. When it asks if you are INSTALLing or making a CHANGE, reply C.
- 5. When it asks for the drive that has the original SAMNA DISK, reply
- with the letter of the drive that has the SAMNA PRINTER DISK.
- 6. When it asks for the drive that you are installing on, enter the
- drive letter of the working SAMNA DISK.
- 7. Then you will be given a screen of printer choices. Choose the one
- you want (refer to the SAMNA manual), and press ENTER.
- 8. That completes the printer installation.
- (Files DEFAULT.PAR and SAMNA.OV7 are changed - The printer file is
- copied from the printer disk and renamed to SAMNA.OV7 and the
- file DEFAULT.PAR is changed)
-
- That completes the unprotection. Remember, all files should be in
- THE SAME DIRECTORY. This is different from the way SAMNA is set up to
- work normally... i.e. the file SAMNA.COM is normally in the root
- directory and the other files are in a sub-directory called SAMNA. This
- works OK on floppies and hard disks but not on some networks.
-
-
- I have found SAMNA WORD II to be a nice product but it's usefulness is
- diminished by it's installation difficulty and copy-protection method.
- This will make hard disk usage easier and backup/restore operations
- more reliable.
