CDSETUP-How To Build Floppy Disk Sets for Select on Windows and Macintosh (238898)

MORE INFORMATION

• Use clean pre-formatted disks to build disk sets. There should not be any files on the disks before the Microsoft product is copied to them.
• For some PC products, the 5.25-inch high-density (1.2 MB) disk format is included on the CD-ROM. The 1.2 MB disk format allows the use of either 3.5 (1.44 MB) disks or 5.25 (1.2 MB) disks to build disk sets.

MORE INFORMATION

• DMF increases the capacity of a 3.5 floppy.
• Norton DiskDoctor, Microsoft Scandisk, MS-DOS DiskCopy and Windows Copy Disk do not recognize DMF. Do not use disk utilities to examine DMF formatted disks, as the utilities can corrupt the DMF disk.
• You cannot copy DMF formatted disks using DiskCopy.
• Disk sets for products with the 1.44 MD/DMF format:
  • Can only be created directly from the Select CD. Disks cannot be copied from one disk to another.
  • Cannot be created on machines with 2.88 MB floppy disks.
  • Can be used on machines with 2.88 MB floppy disks.
