  • Attachment D to Adm. Memo No. 004 INSTRUCTIONS FOR
    Attachment D to Adm. Memo No. 004 INSTRUCTIONS FOR FORMATTING A DISKETTE Formatting is the preparation of diskettes for storage of information. There are several different versions of the format command that can be used. The version that you use depends upon the type of diskette and the type of disk drive in which the diskette is being formatted. In order for us to be able to read the Tuition Grant diskettes you send, the diskettes should be properly formatted. Below is a table that identifies the more commonly used diskette types and disk drive specifications. The correct version of the format command will appear in the row for your diskette type and drive type. The format command uses the parameter “d:” to indicate the disk drive designation. For example, your 5 ¼ drive may be the “A:” drive. Instead of typing “FORMAT D:”, replace the drive designation with “A:” and type “FORMAT A:”. To verify that the disks were formatted correctly, perform the CHKDSK command on the newly formatted diskette. The format for the CHKDSK command is “CHKDSK d:”. When the command returns the disk information, compare it to the information in the fourth column of the table that corresponds to your diskette type and disk drive.. If the “total disk space” numbers are the same, the diskette is formatted correctly. DISK TYPE DRIVE TYPE FORMAT COMMAND SPACE INFO. 5 ¼” DSDD DSDD FORMAT d: 362,496 bytes total disk space 5 ¼” DSDD HD FORMAT d: /T:40 /N:9 362,496 bytes total disk space 5 ¼” HD DSDD Cannot be formatted 5 ¼” HD HD FORMAT d: 1,213,952 bytes total disk space 3 ½” DSDD DSDD FORMAT d: 730,112 bytes total disk space 3 ½” DSDD HD FORMAT d: /T:80 /N:9 730,112 bytes total disk space 3 ½” HD DSDD Cannot be formatted 3 ½” HD HD FORMAT d: 1,457,664 bytes total disk space 3 ½” DSHD FORMAT d: 1,457,664 bytes total disk space.

  • F.A.Q. Series ROM-DOS TM
    21520 30th Drive SE #110 Bothell, WA 98021 USA Tel: (425) 951-8086 Fax: (425) 951-8095 [email protected] [email protected] www.datalight.com TM ROM-DOS F.A.Q. Series Question: Assuming they don't want FAT32, Long Filename support, or Sockets, why should my customer upgrade to the newest ROM-DOS? Answer: Since our first FAT32 and LFN release 4.00.1091, there have been several improvements to the core ROM- DOS kernel. This core code is used primarily for our DOS 6.22 compatible compilations, and then extended in the case of a FAT32 or Long Filename build. The 4.00.1091 release is also a new code base and there will be no further upgrades to the previous DOS 6.22 code. In order to obtain new features, fixes, and support a customer must upgrade to release 4.00.1091 or greater. Along with the performance enhancements for both size and speed, several corrections have been made to the ROM-DOS kernel. These include stack and memory issues, disk access issues, and compatibility with the former market leader in DOS. Most of the ROM-DOS utilities have also been improved for size and speed, along with bug fixes. The major changes happened with the XCOPY, HIMEM, MSCDEX, CHKDSK, FDISK and FORMAT utilities. In the realm of international support, the Euro was added to the keyboard and display driver code. ROM- DOS and PC-DOS 2000 are the only non-GUI operating systems to support the Euro. Finally, new ROM-DOS utilities have been added.

  • Device Manager 1
    CHAPTER 1 Device Manager 1 This chapter describes how your application can use the Device Manager to transfer information into and out of a Macintosh computer. The Device Manager controls the 1 exchange of information between applications and hardware devices. Manager Device This chapter provides a brief introduction to devices and device drivers (the programs that control devices) and then explains how you can use the Device Manager functions to ■ open, close, and exchange information with device drivers ■ write your own device driver that can communicate with the Device Manager ■ provide a user interface for your device driver by making it a Chooser extension or desk accessory. You should read the sections “About the Device Manager” and “Using the Device Manager” if your application needs to use the Device Manager to communicate with a device driver. Applications often communicate with the Device Manager indirectly, by calling functions of other managers (for example, the File Manager) that use the Device Manager. However, sometimes applications must call Device Manager functions directly. The sections “Writing a Device Driver,” “Writing a Chooser-Compatible Device Driver,” and “Writing a Desk Accessory,” provide information you’ll need if you are writing your own device driver. If you writing a device driver, you should understand how memory is organized and allocated in Macintosh computers. See Inside Macintosh: Memory, for this information. You should also be familiar with resources and how the system searches resource files. You can find this information in the chapter “Resource Manager” in Inside Macintosh: More Macintosh Toolbox. If your device driver is to perform background tasks, you’ll need to understand how processes are scheduled.

    Guide on How to Share a Folder over the Network and Map a network Drive October 2019 0 Climsoft Version 4 – Guide on How to Share a Folder over the Network and Map a network Drive This process is very important for the purpose of archiving and retrieving paper images using Climsoft. Scanned paper images records are not stored in the Climsoft database tables like digitised data records but on removable storage media like external hard drives over the network or Network Attached Storage (NAS). To be able to access digitised images saved on a given storage media over the Local Area Network by any client computer using Climsoft, the folder containing digitised images need to be shared with specific computer users and accessible over the network. The drive and folder where digitised images are stored need to be mapped as well on the client computers to enable the later to access digitised images. Follow the instructions below to share the folder containing paper archive images over the network and map the network drive containing digitised images on the client computers. 1. How to share a folder on your Windows Computer (Server) with other Computers (Clients) over the Network (LAN) 1. Open File Explorer; 2. Navigate to the folder you want to share; 3. Right-click the folder and select the Properties option; 4. Click the Sharing tab; 5. Click the Advanced Sharing button. 6.
