HOW DO I INSTALL PEOPLEFINDER CD-ROMs ON MY COMPUTER ?

 

 

(This installation guide does not cover the PeopleFinder West CD-ROMs (California, West-Oregon

or Arizona-Colorado-New Mexico-Nevada-Utah). To obtain installation instructions for those products,

please switch to the "Installing With Activation Codes" WEB page.)

 

 

TO INSTALL THE PEOPLEFINDER CD-ROMs:

 

First, determine the drive letter for your CD-ROM drive, and the drive letter for the hard drive on which

you will be installing the PeopleFinder software. You will need this information when you first run the

PeopleFinder "INSTALL" program. (Note: you will need approximately ten (10) Megabytes of free space

on whichever hard drive you select.)

 

Next, run the "INSTALL" program contained in every PeopleFinder CD-ROM. The easiest way to

activate this program is by temporarily quitting Windows and going to your terminal's DOS prompt.

(Under Windows 3.x you should go to your "Main" folder, and click on "MS-DOS Prompt". Under

Windows 95, use your "Start" button to navigate directly to "MS-DOS Prompt".) If you are unfamiliar

with this procedure, please consult your Windows' manual.

 

To run the PeopleFinder "INSTALL" program, once you are at a DOS prompt, first switch to the letter assigned to your CD-ROM drive's prompt. (The following example would apply if your hard drive was

labeled "C" and your CD-ROM drive was labeled "F".)

 

 

 

 

Then, at your CD-ROM drive's DOS prompt, type "INSTALL" (as shown in the following example).

 

 

 

The "INSTALL" program will first ask you to identify the letter assigned to your CD-ROM drive (as shown in this example)...

 

 

 

...and will then ask you to identify the letter assigned to your hard drive (as shown in this example)...

 

 

 

The PeopleFinder software will now automatically be installed on the hard drive that you selected, and a

directory will also be created on your hard drive to hold the PeopleFinder software. Although you can

name the directory anything you wish, it is recommended that you keep the default directory names (ie.

"PFTEX" for the PeopleFinder Texas CD-ROMs, as shown in the above example).

 

During the installation process, the "INSTALL" program will keep you notified of its progress (as shown

in the example below).

 

 

 

 

Installation typically will not take more than 60 seconds.

 

 

After the installation process has been completed, you will see a message screen appear, confirming

that installation has been successful (as shown in the following example).

 

 

 

Finally, to run the PeopleFinder software, switch to the directory into which the software was installed...

 

 

...and type the appropriate program name (the below example is for PeopleFinder Texas)...

 

 

If you are running Windows 3.x or Windows 95, it is recommended that you create an icon or a shortcut

for each PeopleFinder program, so that it can be run from the desktop. Consult your Windows manual if you are unfamiliar with this procedure.

 

As your PeopleFinder has not been programmed with any "meter" or expiration date, usage is unlimited.

 

We recommend that you register your purchase as soon as possible, so that you can

receive notification of upgrades and discounts available only to registered PeopleFinder

purchasers. You can register right now, or by telephone or fax.

 

Again, thank you for your purchase, and good hunting!
