- There is normally no need to "install" the Professional Master Key
- utilities. If you are the adventurous type who never read manuals, just
- run PMK.
-
- Please be somewhat cautious when running programs like Zero Disk,
- Zero File, and Un Format. They could get you into trouble if you bypass
- the warnings and safeguards built into the programs.
-

-
- Notes for "semi-compatible" IBM PC clones:
-
- The Professional Master Key Utilities will run "out of the box" on
- 99.99% of all IBM compatible computers. If you suspect or know that
- your computer is an older not-very-IBM-compatible, try running the
- programs with the option /Slow ON specified. Doing this instructs the
- programs to display video output using more well-behaved BIOS routines.
- Refer to the documentation for instructions on making this the default
- setting through the INSTALL.EXE program.
-
- Example: PMK /Slow ON
