Installing LC

It’s a good idea to make a working copy of the LC software disks and put the originals away in a safe place, before installing the program. Then if the working copy is damaged or lost, you can easily replace it.

If you are using Windows 3.1 or 3.11:

1.Start Windows

2.Place Disk 1 into drive A or drive B.

3.In the Windows Program Manager, choose the Run command from the File menu. In the Command Line text box, type a:setup if you are using disk drive A or b:setup if you are using disk drive B. Choose the OK button and follow the on-screen instructions.

4.To run LC simply double-click on the AA icon in the AA program group.

If you are using Windows 95, 98 or NT:

1.Start Windows

2.Place Disk 1 into Drive A or Drive B.

3.From the Start menu, choose the Run option. In the Open text box, type a:setup if you are using disk drive A or b:setup if you are using disk drive B. Choose the OK button and follow the on-screen instructions.

4.To Run LC, choose the Programs option from the Start menu, then choose the LC program group, then choose the LC program icon.
