Installing support software for DOS
The software on the PC Compatibility Card PC Software floppy disk that came
with your PC Compatibility Card allows the card to work with the Macintosh
computer, the Macintosh CD-ROM drive, networks, and other equipment.
IMPORTANT If you received this guide with a computer, the support software
for DOS is already installed. You do not need to reinstall the software unless
you are having problems.
To install the software, follow these steps:
1 In the PC environment, insert the PC Compatibility Card PC Software floppy disk.
To switch to the PC environment from the Mac OS, press x- Return, or open
the PC Setup control panel and click Switch to PC.
2 Type A:\SETUP; then press Return.
3 You may see a message asking if you want to install support for DOS or Windows. Press
D for DOS.
4 You’re asked to choose a drive for the files. Choose the C drive.
5 You’re asked to choose a directory. It’s best to accept the suggested directory,
C:\APPLE.
6 Choose Yes to continue installation. If you’re asked whether you want to overwrite files,
choose Yes.
7 You’re asked whether you want the program to modify your system files. Choose “Apply
changes directly to system files.”
If you choose to apply the changes to copies of the system files, the copies are
called filename.number.
8 When installation is complete, restart the PC by switching to the Mac OS (by pressing
x-Return), opening the PC Setup control panel, and clicking Restart PC.
You can also restart the PC by pressing the Control-Alt-… keys. (For more
information on restarting the PC, see “Switching Between the Mac OS and
PC Environments” in Chapter 6.)
