---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Installing CD-Runner
1. Review the System Requirements to ensure that your system is
compatible with this product.
2. Your CD-Runner download file is a self-expanding .zip file. Copy this
file into an empty installation directory (such as C:\TEMP). NOTE:
Make sure that your temporary installation directory name does NOT
include wildcards or special characters! Click on this file from your
Windows Explorer or Program Manager to create the CD-Runner
installation files.
3. From the Windows Explorer or File Manager run install.exe. This will
verify that all Windows system files required for CD-Runner are
extant, and up-to-date. Installation will proceed to Setup
automatically.
4. You may delete the installation files upon completion of setup.
HINT: If you load a CD-ROM (NOT Audio disc) in your drive(s) before
installing CD-Runner, the Setup will automatically choose your drive
letter(s)!
HELP!!!
Once you've entered the CD-Runner program, screen-sensitive Help is
available at all times by pressing F1. Both a mouse-sensitive graphic
screen with brief text pop-ups, as well as detailed information will be
displayed.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cool Tips!!!
#1 Mouse! CD-Runner makes maximum possible use of your mouse. Displays are
LOADED with groovy 'hot spots', which when either right- or left-clicked do
all kinds of fun things(which are also available via menus). Feel free to
play. To guide you, note that your mouse pointer will change shape whenever
you guide it over a hot spot. Makes it fast; makes it FUN!
#2 Palette Size? Those of us who run CD-ROM games and Enhanced Video CDs
have long chaffed at having to reset our screen displays to 256-color
640x480. CD-Runner has a built-in option for playing Enhanced CDs as
stand-alone multimedia files without having to change screen modes. For
gaming, Microsoft has developed a nifty utility called SetRes which loads
to your System Tray and makes this changeover at a single touch. This one
is worth having, and can be downloaded from the Microsoft libraries on
CompuServe and Internet.
#3 Audio CDs - Quick Editing: For quick and easy entering of audio CD
library info, without having to place the CD in the drive for editing:
* Place the CD in the drive with CD-Runner loaded.
* Using the Library button, enter the album name into the library.
* You can now go back to the library at any time and enter additional
album info, without having to enter the CD in the drive.
#4 CD-ROM's - Clear you Windows Desktop: For any CD-ROM applications
registered in the CD-Runner Library, any Windows Program Groups or icons
associated with the programs may be deleted as CD-Runner will automatically
identify and launch your CD. Why clutter up your desktop?
Note: When entering a new CD-ROM that you may already have installed to
your hard drive, it isn't necessary to run the "Install CD-ROM" utility.
Instead, use the "CD-ROM Library" to locate the program on your hard drive
and enter it into the database.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
How to Install Your User ID Key After Registering
After registering and receiving your CD-Runner User ID key:
1) Copy your emailed User ID Key (id-key.zip) to your CD-Runner directory.
2) From the File Manager or Explorer, run the register.exe file in your
CD-Runner directory.
3) That's it. Enjoy!
Your User ID Key will work with ALL CD-Runner Version 4.x or 5.x files of
the same series (16- or 32-bit). To stay up-to-date on upgrades, simply visit
our site regularly and download the current file in your version series.
Note: It is recommended that you archive your User ID Key!
