WordStar, Version 3.3

Your computer’s built-in VGA adapter can run WordStar,

version 3.3, in 132-column text mode without a special driver.
However, you do need to install the VGAMODE utility

program (described later in this appendix). Also, once you have

installed WordStar on your hard disk, you need to install a patch
(modification) to the WordStar program file, as described below.

Installing the Patch

To install the patch to the WordStar program, follow the steps

below:

1.

Log onto the WordStar directory on your hard disk.

2.

Type the following and press

Enter

to make a backup copy

of the original WordStar program file:

COPY WS.COM WSORIG.COM

3.

Run the VGA Driver Setup program on your Utility 1

diskette to copy the WS33INST utility to your hard disk.

From the Main Menu, select Utility

programs.

Then select

WS33INST

from the submenu. See “Using

the VGA Driver Setup Program” on page A-4 for

instructions.
