MMW SYSTEM CALCULATOR Copyright (c) GM Hughes Electronics, 1990. HARD DISK INSTALLATION ====================== To run to Calculator from you hard disk, follow these steps... 1. Go to the disk on which you intend to install the program: C: 2. Create a subdirectory to hold the program. MD MMW 3. Go into the new subdirectory. CD MMW 4. Put the disk in a floppy drive and copy the files. COPY A:*.* 5. Start the program. MMW You will find it will execute much more quickly, since the calcu- lations are stored in a database. CONFIGURING YOUR SYSTEM ======================= The Calculator program takes a considerable amount of RAM (About 400k). If the program is locking up or erroring out, try running it without any RAM-resident programs in memory. It is also possible that your configuration file has an insuffi- cient number of files and buffers allocated. For the Calculator to function adequately, your CONFIG.SYS file (located in the root directory) should contain the following statements: FILES = 20 BUFFERS = 8 These numbers are minimums, the program will work fine with larger file and buffer assignments. UNSOLVEABLE PROBLEMS ==================== If, after reconfiguring your system and eliminating RAM-resident programs from memory, the Calculator program still doesn't work, feel free to call us at (213)517-6400 or (better yet) FAX us at (213)517-7665. We welcome your comments and suggestions for future improvements.
