? CACHE PROGRAMS ?
??????????????????
Never load disk cache programs after Casmgr. Disk cache programs reset
some internal values that are needed in unaltered form by Casmgr. It
can cause Casmgr to corrupt the hard disk.
Norton Disk Cache
This program can cause the error "SatisFAXtion board not responding"
if write caching is turned on. Turn off write caching and SatisFAXtion
will work fine.
PC-Cache
When using PC-Cache with SatisFAXtion, turn off the caching of disk
writes by adding the following option to the PC-Cache command line
in the autoexec.bat file:
/WRITE=OFF
Super PC-Kwik
May lock up if SatisFAXtion is in the process of accessing the hard
disk to save or send a file while another program is being loaded
from the disk. This happens with versions of SUPER PC-KWIK below 3.1
when loaded into EXPANDED MEMORY only. The solution is to load
SUPER PC-KWIK with /H- /D- in the command line. This turns off
background reads of the disk track (for HD & Floppies respectively).
The problem has been fixed in version 3.1 of SUPER PC-KWIK.
V-CACHE by Golden Bow Software
This disk caching software is compatible with Casmgr. However, in
order to prevent lock-up when Casmgr is accessing a diskette, you must
invoke the cache with the /T=0 parameter.
For other cache programs, consult your manual to determine how to
turn off background disk writes.
??????????????????????
? ANTIVIRUS PROGRAMS ?
??????????????????????
Antivirus programs can conflict with the SatisFAXtion software. If
you have an antivirus program installed and you have problems with the
SatisFAXtion software, unload the antivirus program (or remove its
command lines from the autoexec.bat and/or config.sys files and restart
your computer) and try again. Contact the manufacturer of the
antivirus program for possible settings that will work with the
SatisFAXtion software.
?????????????????????
? PC TOOLS SOFTWARE ?
?????????????????????
To use the SatisFAXtion software with PC-Shell, make sure that your
autoexec.bat file invokes the SatisFAXtion programs Casmgr and Faxpop
before you invoke the PCSHELL Command.
Load FAXPOP before invoking PCSHELL.
????????????????????
? NETWORK SOFTWARE ?
????????????????????
If you're having difficulty (lockups, etc.) with SatisFAXtion, try
reversing the order you are loading your network drivers and Casmgr.
(eg. If currently loading your network driver before Casmgr, try loading
it after, and vice versa.)
???????????????????
? SCREEN BLANKERS ?
???????????????????
If experiencing difficulty with faxing or lockups, remove any screen
blanking programs which are loading in your autoexec.bat file.
