Step 4: Install DKAdmin
DKAdmin is a DOS application program that can be installed and run in either DOS or as a
Windows DOS session.
CAUTION! If any earlier DKAdmin (280Admin) release is already installed on the PC,
do not delete it; install DKAdmin Release 4.XX over the existing DKAdmin
(280Admin) version as described below. DKAdmin is always installed in the
280Admin directory, overwriting the old DKAdmin (280Admin) operating
software but not customer database directories. Existing 280Admin
customer data can be used with DKAdmin Release 4.XX.
Note DKAdmin software is also available from the Toshiba FYI Internet site.
Windows PC from CD-ROM
Notes
●
When installing DKAdmin to run as a DOS session in Windows NT, the install program
assumes that the default directory name (WINNT) and the default system drive (Drive C)
contain the system files. The installation procedure looks for this directory (C:\WINNT)
and, if found, copies the necessary drivers for Windows NT onto the hard disk.
●
Be sure to exit all programs running in Windows before starting.
1. Insert the CD-ROM into your CD-ROM drive. The Main Menu appears.
...or if the Main Menu does not appear after you insert the CD-ROM, click Start, Run, then
Browse. Select your CD-ROM drive from the Look in: pull down list. Locate and double-
click mainmenu.exe. The Main Menu opens.
2. From the Main Menu, select “Install DKAdmin” and follow the prompts.
Important! Remember that the “Install DKAdmin” selection in the Main Menu is a Windows
application, but the actual DKAdmin application is a DOS/Windows DOS
session application.
Windows PC from Floppy Disks
Note Be sure to exit all programs before running the Setup program.
1. Insert Floppy Disk #1 into the floppy drive and click Start, then Run. Type a:\setup (or
b:\setup ). Click OK. Follow the prompts to install DKAdmin.
CAUTION! During installation, selecting “New Installation” overwrites the existing
DKAdmin customer list if you already have DKAdmin or 280Admin installed on your PC.
Although the customer list is overwritten, you can still retrieve the existing customer data
associated to that name by adding that customer’s name using the “Maintain Customer”
selection on the newly installed DKAdmin. Do this for each customer name that is overwritten
on the list.
2. Reboot your PC when prompted at the end of installation.
