INSTALLATION:

Thank you for selecting our Cookbook!
Our software equires an IBM or Compatible PC
with a minimum of 512K RAM and a hard disk drive.
Basically it will run on almost any computer !

The install prorgram will place our Cookbook 
in the following directory

c:\COOK_OCS 



If this is ok.... skip the rest of this page!
*************************************************

Suppose 'C:' is your hard drive.

You may wish to install the program on to its own separate
directory. To create its own separate directory, you must get on to
the hard drive. 

Note: On the following instructions, only type the 
commands inside the the quotation marks. Please do not include the
quotation marks.
  
Suppose 'C:' is your hard drive.

At the prompt "C>"
You type 'MD\COOK_OCS'
This creates a directory called "COOK_OCS".

At the prompt "C>"
You type 'CD\COOK_OCS'
This moves you into the directory called "COOK_OCS"

Now place the program Disk into your floppy drive.

Suppose your floppy drive is called 'A:'

At the prompt "C>"
You type 'A:'
This now puts you on the 'A:' Drive.
Note: If your floppy drive was 'B:', you would type 'B:' instead. 

At the prompt "A>"
You type 'COPY *.* C:'
This now copies the program onto your hard disk drive.

At the prompt "A:"
You type 'C:'
This now puts you on the hard drive.

Now remove The program Disk from the floppy drive
This completes the installation procedure.


A NOTE ABOUT CONFIG.SYS :

The program works best when your CONFIG.SYS file contains the
following minimum commands:

buffers=16
files=20

(Note: Most computers already exceed these minimum commands and you
should generally not have to do anything!)
***********************************************

To find out if your CONFIG.SYS contains these commands
At the prompt "C>"
You type 'CD\'
This moves you to the correct directory.

At the prompt "C>"
You type 'TYPE CONFIG.SYS'
This will type the contents of the file on the screen.

If your CONFIG.SYS file contains these commands, then you are OK!
If your CONFIG.SYS file contains or exceeds these commands, then
you are OK!

Example: 
buffers=17
files=21

Is OK!

If your CONFIG.SYS file does not contain these commands or does not
meet the minimum requirements then you must edit your CONFIG.SYS. 

or

Install The program Disk into your floppy drive.

At the prompt "C>"
You type 'COPY CONFIG.SYS + A:\CONFIG.SYS'

Note: if your floppy drive was 'B:' you would type 'COPY CONFIG.SYS
+ B:\CONFIG.SYS' instead. Remove the Disk from your floppy
drive.

This will solve the problem.

You have now successfully installed the program !

Before you run the program be sure to reboot your system.  Be
sure to store The program Disk in a cool, dry, and secure place.


GETTING STARTED.

Whenever you want to use A Jewish Mother's Cookbook(TM)
you need just two commands ...

At the prompt "C>"
You would type 'CD\COOK_OCS'.
This puts you in the correct directory.

At the prompt "C>"
You type 'COOK'.
This starts the program.

IMPORTANT FOR WINDOWS USERS:

If you try to run the program but get an error message such as..
"Not enough memory"
You must change your CONFIG.SYS file.

Look for a line in the CONFIG.SYS file that sets the emm386.exe
such as ...
         DEVICE=C:\DOS\emm386.exe noems x=d400-d7ff

Change the "noems" portion to read "1024"
such as ...
         DEVICE=C:\DOS\emm386.exe 1024 x=d400-d7ff

Notice the before and after.

Before        DEVICE=C:\DOS\emm386.exe noems x=d400-d7ff
After         DEVICE=C:\DOS\emm386.exe 1024  x=d400-d7ff

The only change is noems becomes 1024!

This will correct the problem and will not affect any other program.

If you do not know how to edit your config.sys file

do the following....
   From the program manger
      select File...Run...
        Then type "Sysedit"
            Select the "Config.sys" file and make the changes

Remember to save the changes to the file and reboot your computer
