KING'S QUEST 6 MANUAL INSTALLATION GUIDE Sierra On-Line's Technical Support department prepared the following instructions as an added service to our customers. PLEASE NOTE: SIERRA ON-LINE DOES NOT MAKE ANY CLAIMS, GUARANTEES, AND/OR PROMISES THAT THE FOLLOWING INSTRUCTIONS WILL WORK ON ANY AND/OR ALL COMPUTER SYSTEMS. Under some rare and unusual circumstances the INSTALL program that comes with King's Quest 6 may not be able to copy and configure all of the files from the floppy disks to a computer's hard disk drive. For those rare instances we have created this manual installation guide. Please follow the instructions in this guide very carefully. First, create a subdirectory to copy the game files to by typing: MD SIERRA CD SIERRA MD KQ6 CD KQ6 Now install the program files.: Step #1 Insert disk #1 Type: COPY A:*.* Step #2 Type: REN INTRO.P01 SEQ.EXE Step #3 Insert disk #2 Type: COPY/b SEQ.EXE+A:\INTRO.* (substitute B: if you are installing from the B drive) Step #4 Insert disk #3 Type: COPY/b SEQ.EXE+A:\INTRO.* (substitute B: if you are installing from the B drive) If you're installing from 5.25" disks repeat step #4 with disk #4. Step #5 From disk #3 (3.5") or disk #4 (5.25") Type: COPY A:\RESOURCE.P01 RESOURCE.000 Step #6 Insert disk #4 (3.5") or disk #5 (5.25") Type: COPY/b RESOURCE.000+A:\RESOURCE.* (substitute B: if installing from B drive) Repeat step #6 by pressing the F3 function key until you get to disk #8 (3.5") or disk #10 (5.25"). Step #7 From disk #8 (3.5") or disk #10 (5.25") Type: COPY A:\AUDIO.P01 RESOURCE.AUD Step #8 Insert disk #9 (3.5") or disk #11 (5.25") Type: COPY/b RESOURCE.AUD+A:\AUDIO.* Step #9 Finally, type the following commands: COPY A:\*.HEP COPY A:\*.SCR COPY A:\*.TEX COPY A:\*.V56 Now type INSTALL from the hard drive and choose your sound and video configuration. INSTALLING OPENING CARTOON ONLY To only install the opening cartoon simply follow these steps: Insert disk #1 and type: COPY A:\INTRO.P01 SEQ.EXE Insert disk #2 and type: COPY/b SEQ.EXE+A:\INTRO.* Insert disk #3 and type: COPY/b SEQ.EXE+A:\INTRO.* If installing from 5.25" disks, insert disk #4 and type: COPY/b SEQ.EXE+A:\INTRO.* SEQ.EXE is a 3,022,622 bytes large and is a self-extracting archive file. When King's Quest 6 is first started from the KQ6.BAT file it automatically decompresses SEQ.EXE into the individual cartoon files. The opening cartoon is 5,890,048 bytes when decompressed, so you must have at least 9 Megs of disk space availalble before attempting to install and decompress it. After the SEQ.EXE file has been created on the hard drive you will need 6 Megs of free disk space in order to decompress it. DELETING OPENING CARTOON To delete the opening cartoon from the hard drive simply type DEL *.SEQ If you continue to experience any problems with the Boot Disk, or if you have any questions concerning any of the above steps, our technical support team will be more than happy to assist you.
