Follow these steps to run HDSIT:

1.

Exit any program you are using and make sure the MS-DOS
command prompt appears on the screen.

2.

Insert the Reference diskette in drive A. Then type

A :

and

press

Enter

to log onto that drive.

3.

Type the following and press

Enter:

HDSIT

You see a message on the screen that tells you the disk drive’s
read/write heads will remain locked until you reset the computer
or turn the power off and on again. The computer locks the

heads and disables the keyboard. Remove any diskettes and turn
off the computer. You are now ready to move it to the new

location.

Note

For convenience, you may want to copy the following two
files from the Reference Diskette to your hard disk:

HDSIT.COM

HDSIT.VER

Then, when you want to run HDSIT, just log onto the
directory on your hard disk where you stored the files, type

HDSIT,

and press

Enter.

See your MS-DOS manual for

instructions on using the COPY command.

If you have a 5 1/4-inch diskette drive and you still have the
original diskette drive protector card, you may want to insert it
into the drive prior to shipping your computer to protect the

read/write heads.
