It is highly recommended that you take the time to read and print the following before you download the software.

• Intel 386SX, 386DX, 486 or Pentium processor)

• High Density 3.5" floppy
• Printer, which can print MS Windows documents (laser printer recommended)

1. Check the available space on your computer hard disk. It should be no less than 4 MB. If you do not have this amount of available space, delete unnecessary files from the hard disk or acquire an additional hard disk drive.

2. Launch (open) MS Windows 3.1 or (higher). Make sure that no other applications are running. If any applications are running, terminate them during the "Promatch" installation process.

3. Insert diskette labelled "Disk 1" into floppy disk drive A: (if you use disk drive B:, then substitute B: for A: where A: is mentioned during the installation procedure).

4. Double click the File menu of the Windows Program Manager, choose Run and Press Enter.

5. In the window that appears type A:\SETUP on Command line and press Enter. Follow the instructions on the screen.

6. After the SETUP is completed, a window with SETUP DESTINATION information will appear. If you are not sure, how to use this information, just click on Continue menu button (or select this button with arrow keys and press enter). If you know what this information means, you can change Destination Directory and Program Group, using Controls on the screen in question.

7. When a small window instructs, insert diskette labelled "Disk 2" into floppy disk drive A: and click on OK button (or select this button with arrow keys and press Enter) to continue installation

8. When a small window with the message SETUP IS COMPLETE appears, remove any diskette from the floppy drive, click on the OK menu button (or press Enter) to end installation.

   When the software is installed successfully and ready to run, it is recommended that you restart (close and re-open) Windows before starting to use the Promatch software.

"Too many files Open"

this means that your computer should be reconfigured. Although system configuration is normally a task for a qualified operator, your MS DOS and MS Windows manuals contain all the necessary information to assist you in correcting the situation. However, the following is a simple procedure that you could follow:

1. Go to "PROGRAM MANAGER"
2. Open "Notepad"
3. Under "Type of Files" select "All Files"
4. Under "Directories" select "C" (Root Directory)
5. Under "File Name List" select "Config.Sys"
6. Open "Config.Sys" file
7. Look for line which says "Files"
8. Increase the number of files by "10" (ie. if files =60 then increase by 10 to 70
   Note: In the event that you should open "Config.sys" file and find that there is no line which reads "FILES" then:
   A. Hit the "Enter" key
   B. A space will create a new line at the top of the page
   C. Move curser to the beginning of the new line
   D. Type in "Files=70"

9. Close "Notepad" (You will be asked to Save the File changes, select "YES")
10. Close "Program Manager" and exit "Windows"
11. Re-Open "Windows"
12. Try to open "Promatch"

Repeat the above procedure if the same message appears saying "Too many files open" then repeat the above procedure.
