3.0 MAKING A BACKUP COPY

Before you install and use the Executive software and optional DPS

software, you should make a backup copy in case the original is lost

or destroyed. You must use the DOS DISKCOPY command for

backup.
You will need as many formatted floppy disks for the backup

procedure as you have to load the Executive and DPS software.

Follow the procedure below to make backup copies of all disks.
Step 1.

Log onto the C: drive by typing C: at the DOS prompt.

Then type
DISKCOPY A: A: or DISKCOPY B: B:

Step 2.

The operating system will prompt you to insert the source

disk into drive A: (or B:). Insert the first disk and strike any

key.

Step 3.

The system will then prompt you to insert the target disk.

Replace the source disk with the target (blank) disk and

strike any key. The display will indicate when the

procedure is complete and allow you to copy the

remaining disks without typing the DISKCOPY command

again. Simply answer yes (Y) to the following prompt:
Copy another (Y/N)?

Step 4.

Use the above procedure to make a copy of all the disks.
