To use one of these programs on a hard disc, you should have a RISC OS machine. If your program is pre v2.00 you should make a backup and convert it using the RISC OS support disc. The software may be copied to the hard disc as follows (use the desktop drag mechanism to copy the files): Copy the contents of the LIBRARY directory to the LIBRARY directory on the SCSI hard disc. If you do not have a LIBRARY directory on your hard disc you should create one using the 'New Directory option' from the desktop. Copy everything else wherever you like. The most common problem is say where you get the error message 'Module must be on the disc'. This means that that the program you are using has not been able to find the modules that it requires. To cure this problem you should try the following. Configure the Filing system to SCSI, and the drive to :4 with the following commands: *CONFIGURE FileSystem SCSIFS *CONFIGURE Drive 4 Then press Ctrl and Break and try again. If it still doesn't find the modules, you should make sure that the LIBRARY is configured correctly by typing: *LIB :4.Library --01---011/SCSIFS----------------------------------------------------------
