The user will receive the software component upgrade files via e-mail or diskette. If
they have been received via e-mail, the user must open the message and left-click File
and then left-click Save Attachments. This displays a save window. The user must left-
click Desktop and then left-click Save. This will save the files on the Desktop area for
usage. When the user is done, the files may be moved to another area of the computer
for storage, or dragged into the Recycle Bin for deletion.
If the files were received on a diskette, the user must insert the diskette into the laptop's
disk drive (typically the A: drive). The user must then left double-click the My Computer
icon on the Desktop. A window will open, displaying the various drives on the computer.
The user must left double-click the drive the diskette was inserted into (typically the A:
drive, labeled 3½ Floppy A:). This will cause the window to change to the contents of
the diskette. The user must select all files by left-clicking on the topmost file and then
hold down the Shift key and left-click on the bottommost file. All the available files
should be highlighted at this time. The user then presses Crtl-C to copy the files to the
Clipboard. The user may then close the window by left-clicking the small X button in
the upper right-hand corner of the window. The window will disappear, displaying the
laptop's Desktop area. The user next presses Crtl-V, which will paste the files from
the clipboard onto the desktop. The files will appear as various icons on the Desktop.
When the user is done, the files may be moved to another area of the computer for
storage, or dragged into the Recycle Bin for deletion.
The user will typically receive at least three files in one of the following sets:
Set 1: Console
transfer.exe
main.exe
On occasion, additional files may be sent. If this occurs, a readme.txt file will be included
installm.bat
that will contain additional instructions for the upgrade process.
