Installing Windows Programs

To speed up transmission the demo programs have been compressed into a single file with PKZIP. When you download one of my demo's you will need to unzip it onto a floppy disk before you can install it. PKUNZIP is a very popular shareware program. Full instructions and copies of this handy utility are available from here

Important:- Close all of your existing Windows applications before running the setup program.

Note:- The instructions below refer to installation from a floppy. All of the installation sets currently available from this web site are less than 1.44MB un-zipped. So I have assumed that most people would wish to do this. However you can also install the software directly from where ever you have un-zipped it to: The instructions are exactly the same as below but instead of entering a:\setup click the Browse button, then go off and select a file called SETUP.EXE. All of my Windows programs include SETUP.EXE It performs the remaining decompression, and installation so all you now need to do is click the icon.
