Creating a STF Partition File

If you accidentally delete the Save-to-File (STF) partition file or reformat the hard drive, use the following steps to create a new STF partition file.

1.Insert the Application and Driver CD into the CD-ROM or DVD-ROM drive.

2.Create a temporary directory on your hard drive using the MS-DOS md command.

3.Copy all files from the \software\both\hdprepez\ directory on the CD-ROM or DVD-ROM to your temporary directory.

Note If you need to edit the hdprepez.cfg file, remove its read-only attribute. Right click on hdprepez.cfg and click Properties. Uncheck read-only in the attribute section and click OK.

4.Remove the CD.

5.Insert a bootable MS-DOS diskette into the diskette drive and reboot the system.

6.Change to the newly created temporary directory.

Follow the instructions in the Readme file in the hdprepez directory to prepare your hard drive for the new STF partition file.

7.Run HDPREPEZ from the hdprepez directory to create the STF partition file (see readme.txt on the Application and Driver CD or enter hdprepez /h for help).

2.Type c:\ie5\ie5setup.exe in the Open box.

3.Click OK.
