Copying the Reference and Utility Files

If you have a hard disk, you’ll probably want to copy some of the files on your Reference and Utility diskettes to the hard disk for convenience. This allows you to run the programs any time without having to insert a diskette. Copy the following files from the Reference diskette to your hard disk:

CORFIX.EXE HDSIT.COM

ESPEED.EXE HDSIT.VER

(Chapter 2 and Appendix B explain how to use these programs.)
