12/1/91 ?????????????????????????????????????????????? ? CONFIGURING AUTOEXEC.BAT/CONFIG.SYS FILES ? ?????????????????????????????????????????????? ?????????????????? ? 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.
