                              (for MS-DOS)





  AudioNexus must be installed on a hard drive.  Do not attempt to install
  to, or run the program on, a floppy drive.

  To install, type:

                 A:INSTALL <Enter>     or     B:INSTALL <Enter>

  There must be about 1.2MB of free space available on the target hard
  drive or the install process will be incomplete, with indication of an
  error and an exit to DOS.  The source drive (containing install.exe) must
  be different from the target drive.  After installation, the program uses
  about 620k of space.  The install process will create a directory on the
  destination drive, the default selection being  \AUDIONX.  The install
  process does NOT modify your path, autoexec.bat, or config.sys.


  The 3 primary files included in this package are:

           README.TXT (this file)     INSTALL.EXE     __0010.EXE


 Ŀ
                                                                            
   The following paragraph relates *ONLY* to bulletin board downloads:      
                                                                            
   If this program has been downloaded from a BBS or information service,   
   the three files mentioned above may be moved to a diskette from which    
   INSTALL.EXE is to be used, as indicated previously.  You may also run    
   INSTALL.EXE from your downloads directory *IF* you are installing to a   
   *DIFFERENT* logical drive from the one in which INSTALL.EXE exists.  Do  
   not attempt to install TO a floppy drive.                                
                                                                            
 


  For an alternative installation, copy the self-extracting file __0010.EXE
  to a directory and simply execute that file.   __0010.EXE may then be
  deleted from the directory.  Use of INSTALL.EXE provides verification
  along with installation and provides opportunity to print the documentation
  (about 18 pages).

  After a new installation, the following 7 files must be present in the
  \AUDIONX directory for a complete installation:

                           PRINTER.DB
                           ORDER.FRM
                           AUDIONX.DB
                           AUDIONX.EXE
                           AUDIONX.DOC
                           _10OVERL.EXE
                           _ADMIN10.PCX

  (Several index files (*.ix) will be built when the program first executes.)


  After installation, type:

                           AUDIONX <enter>

  to run the program.  In the program itself, press <Alt-M> to access the
  on-line documentation.






WINDOWS 3.1 and WINDOWS 95 SETUP
---------------------------------

Q. How may I add this program to my Windows environment?

A. Windows 3.1:
   ------------
   To set up this application to run from Windows(R) 3.1 Program Manager,
   first install the program normally from DOS or within a full DOS window.

   Next, make the desired Program Group in which you wish to place this
   program the current group (that is, click on the Title Bar of the group
   to highlight it as the current one).

   From the File Menu, select New.  Then select Program Item.  Choose OK.
   Type in "AudioNexus" as the Description line.  For the Command Line,
   enter the drive, directory, and name of the executable filename; i.e.,

            C:\AUDIONX\AUDIONX.EXE

   if you have installed to the C: drive and in the default directory name
   suggested by the Installation program.

   For the Working Directory, indicate the above directory:

            C:\AUDIONX


   You may skip the Shortcut Key designation and the Run Minimized check box.

   In the Program Item Properties box, click on OK.

   The Program Group item for the application will be created.  To launch the
   program from Windows, you need only double-click on the resulting default
   icon for the program.

   Make sure you are running this program in a full MS-DOS screen; it will
   not run in an MS-DOS window.  This setting is made in your _DEFAULT.PIF
   file (in the Windows directory) with the PIF File Editor.  To start the
   PIF Editor, open the Main program group and double-click on the PIF Editor
   icon.  When the PIF Editor window is open, select the File menu, then Open.
   Choose the _DEFAULT.PIF file in the Windows directory.  Click on OK to open  the
   file in the Editor.  Select Full Screen under Display Usage if it is not
   already selected.  Click on the check box for Close Window on Exit to place
   an X in that box if it does not yet contain one.  Generally, you may leave
   the Video Memory setting set on Text and all other settings are left alone
   as they originally appeared.  Click on the File menu, then select Save.
   You may then close out the PIF Editor.  (Please note that the Display Usage
   setting is only applicable in 386 Enhanced mode and the instructions in
   this paragraph are only applicable to Windows 3.1.)



   Windows 95:
   -----------
   This program has been fully tested by RCCO Research to run under Windows
   95.   Many users will note immediate benefits in terms of the program's
   execution speed and smoothness of the video screens, particularly if you
   are running Windows 95 on a Pentium (or 80486) system.

   To set up the application to run in Windows 95, first install the program
   normally from a full MS-DOS screen.   (See the Readme.txt file for
   instructions in running Install.exe from MS-DOS.)  You must observe MS-DOS
   filenaming conventions when naming a directory (folder) in which the
   program will be installed (most users will accept the suggested default,
   C:\AUDIONX); that is, the folder name must be eight characters or less
   with no spaces or other characters not allowable under traditional
   MS-DOS naming conventions.  When reading the program's online documenta-
   tion, you may wish to mentally substitute the word "folder" whenever
   "directory" is mentioned.

   In Windows 95, to add this program to your Start Menu:
     1. Click on Start.
     2. Move the mouse pointer up to Settings.
     3. Click on Taskbar...
     4. Select the 'Start Menu Programs' tab.
     5. Click on Add.
     6. Click on Browse, then navigate to the application's executable
         file, AUDIONX.EXE, by first double-clicking to the folder or
         sub-folder in which it exists.  Select AUDIONX.EXE.  Click on Open.
     7. Now the Command line shows the path to the application's
         executable file.  Click on Next.
     8. Choose a folder in which the shortcut to the program will
         appear (or select New Folder if one is desired).
     9. Click on Next.
    10. At the prompt 'Select a name for the shortcut,' type in
         "AudioNexus."
    11. Click on Finish.  This returns you to the Taskbar Properties window.
    12. Under the Advanced Settings you will have to specify that this
         program is to run in a FULL MS-DOS SCREEN.  This program will
         not run in an MS-DOS window.

         Advanced Settings (on the Taskbar Properties window):
         A. Click on Advanced.
         B. Click on the plus sign (+) to open the Programs folder.
         C. Click on the folder containing the new shortcut to
              the program.
         D. RIGHT-click on the shortcut itself.  Select Properties.
              Click on the Program tab, then click on the "Close on exit"
              box to place a check mark there.  Next, click on the Screen
              tab.  Click on Full-Screen under Usage.  Click on Apply at
              the bottom of the window.  Click on OK.
         E. Close out the Exploring window.

    13. When you return to the Taskbar Properties window for the final time,
         click on OK.





Q. Isn't there really a way to run this program in an MS-DOS window (rather
   than a full screen)?

A. There is, but you must accept the condition that the startup splashscreen
   logo will not be usable.  It is actually only the logo display that
   requires a full DOS screen, not the program code itself.  Here is how to
   run the rest of the program from an MS-DOS window:

   You will be running the overlay file directly, rather than using the
   loader program (AUDIONX.EXE) that displays the logo image while the
   program loads.  The result is a few seconds of blank screen before the
   program appears, but it will then run well in an MS-DOS window under
   the Microsoft Windows operating system.

   Simply specify that the program file to execute is _10OVERL.EXE rather
   than AUDIONX.EXE.  AUDIONX.EXE must still be present at all times in the
   program directory/folder, however; you must not delete or move this
   file.

   We suggest that the MS-DOS window be set to run Maximized (appearing
   as the full width of the 640x480 VGA screen, with the proportional height
   displayed automatically), utilizing the 8 x 12 Bitmap (NOT TrueType) font.
   In this manner, the program will appear its optimal best within an MS-DOS
   window.  Of course, while running in an MS-DOS window, you may utilize the
   Copy and Paste functions of the Windows Clipboard as well as do
   multitasking and task switching between other application windows.
