-
- 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!
