19Installing DKBackup
Step 3: (Optional) Make Installation Floppy Disks
From Windows
If you wish to install DKBackup on a PC that does not have a CD-ROM, you will need to 
make installation floppies from a PC that has a CD-ROM. You can make installation disks that 
install the program using a Windows application (this works on all PCs with Windows 3.x, 95, 
98 or Windows NT) or you can make DOS only installation disks.
CAUTION!Do not use the DOS installation program on a Windows PC.
NoteBe sure to exit all programs running in Windows before starting.
1. Insert the CD-ROM into your CD-ROM drive. The Main Menu appears.
...or if the Main Menu does not appear after you insert the CD-ROM, click Start, Run, then 
Browse. Select your CD-ROM drive from the Look in: pull down list. Locate and double-
click mainmenu.exe. The Main Menu opens.
2.From the Main Menu, select “Make Floppy Installation Disks” then select “DKBackup 
Windows Installation Disks” or “DKBackup DOS Installation Disks” (depending which 
target PC will get the installation). Follow the prompts.
From DOS Only PC
If you wish to install DKBackup on a PC that does not have a CD-ROM, we recommend that 
you use a Windows PC and the preceding instructions to make installation floppy disks. 
However, in the rare case you are using a DOS only PC that has a CD-ROM, follow these 
steps:
1. Place a blank floppy in floppy drive A: (or B:). Insert the CD-ROM into your CD-ROM 
drive. Change the DOS prompt to the CD-ROM drive letter and type: 
cd\dkbdos\disk1 and press Enter.
2. Type: copy *.* A: (or B:) and press Enter.
3. Place a another floppy in floppy drive A: (or B:) and type: cd\dkbdos\disk2 and 
press  Enter.
4. Type: copy *.* A: (or B:) and press Enter.

Step 4: Install DKBackup
DKBackup is a DOS application program that can be installed and run in either DOS or as a 
Windows DOS session.
CAUTION!If any earlier DKBackup (280Backup) release is already installed on the PC, 
do not delete it; install DKBackup Release 4.XX over the existing DKBackup 
(280Backup) version as described below. DKBackup is always installed in 
the 280Backup directory, overwriting the old DKBackup (280Backup) 
operating software but not customer database directories. Existing 
280Backup customer data can be used with DKBackup Release 4.XX. 
NoteDKBackup software is also available from the Toshiba FYI Internet site.
Windows PC from CD-ROM
Notes
lWhen installing DKBackup to run as a DOS session in Windows NT, the install program 
assumes that the default directory name (WINNT) and the default system drive (Drive C) 
contain the system files. The installation procedure looks for this directory (C:\WINNT) 
and, if found, copies the necessary drivers for Windows NT onto the hard disk.
lBe sure to exit all programs running in Windows before starting.
1. Insert the CD-ROM into your CD-ROM drive. The Main Menu appears.
...or if the Main Menu does not appear after you insert the CD-ROM, click Start, Run, then 
Browse. Select your CD-ROM drive from the Look in: pull down list. Locate and double-
click mainmenu.exe. The Main Menu opens.
2.From the Main Menu, select “Install DKBackup” and follow the prompts.
Important!Remember that the “Install DKBackup” selection in the Main Menu is a 
Windows application, but the actual DKBackup application is a DOS/Windows 
DOS session application.
Windows PC from Floppy Disks
NoteBe sure to exit all programs before running the Setup program.
1. Insert Floppy Disk #1 into the floppy drive and click Start, then Run. Type a:\setup (or 
b:\setup). Click OK. Follow the prompts to install DKBackup.
CAUTION!During installation, selecting “New Installation” overwrites the existing 
DKBackup customer list if you already have DKBackup or 280Backup installed on your PC. 
Although the customer list is overwritten, you can still retrieve the existing customer data 
associated to that name by adding that customer’s name using the “Maintain Customer” 
selection on the newly installed DKBackup. Do this for each customer name that is overwritten 
on the list.
2. Reboot your PC when prompted at the end of installation.
