-
- Within this package is a program called "INSTALL.EXE". VERSADEX must be
- installed using "INSTALL.EXE". You must be logged onto the same drive and in
- the same directory as "INSTALL.EXE" when you run "INSTALL.EXE". From the DOS
- prompt, and the same drive and directory as "INSTALL.EXE", type "INSTALL"
- (without quotes) and press <ENTER>, or <RETURN>. The program files will be
- installed onto your "C" drive in the directory named "VERSADEX". They must
- be installed to this directory for VERSADEX to operate properly. The
- installation program will do everything for you including creating the
- directory. Once installed be sure to read the following four files before
- running VERSADEX for the first time:
-
- 1) PACKING.LST 2) README.NOW
- 3) VERSADEX.DOC 4) REGISTER.DOC
-
- These files will be on the "C" drive, in the "VERSADEX" subdirectory.
- Once the installation is finished you will find yourself in this sub-
- directory on the "C" drive.
-
- ONCE THE INSTALLATION PROGRAM IS FINISHED:
-
- Approximately 545k of conventional DOS RAM is required to make VERSADEX
- memory resident. After VERSADEX becomes resident it only requires 5k. If you
- receive the message "Not enough memory. Program not loaded.", one of two things
- will have occurred:
-
- 1) You are using several TSR's (other memory resident programs) that are
- being loaded ahead of VERSADEX.
- SOLUTION: Load VERSADEX before the other TSR's so that when it is
- VERSADEX's turn to load, there is at least 545k free space.
-
- 2) Device drivers in your CONFIG.SYS file are using up too much memory.
- SOLUTION: See if you can live without some of them or try to reduce the
- amount of memory that each is using. For example, reduce the
- size of any RAM disks that may be in memory.
-
- Start VERSADEX by typing "VERSADEX" (without quotes) and then pressing
- <ENTER> or <RETURN>. If you have enough EXPANDED memory free, VERSADEX will
- try, by default, to use that area to swap itself in and out of memory. If you
- do not have EXPANDED memory at all or if you do not have enough EXPANDED memory
- free, VERSADEX will use your hard drive to swap itself in and out of memory.
- There are four switches that you may use with VERSADEX which you will learn
- about when you run VERSADEX the first time. One of these is the "D" switch
- which forces VERSADEX to use your hard disk to swap itself in and out of
- memory. If you have EXPANDED memory but would like to reserve it for uses other
- than VERSADEX, then use the "D" switch. The "D" switch is not necessary if you
- do not have EXPANDED memory. VERSADEX detects whether you have EXPANDED memory
- and if you have enough EXPANDED memory free, and if you do not, will use your
- hard drive automatically.
