   3. Installation notes.

	Run 'INSTALL.EXE'. Follow the instructions on the screen.

	The installation program will create the directory you specify and
	install the software in it.
	After that, it will generate a swap file (DATA48.SWP) and a batch
	file (DATA48.BAT).

	Finally, it checks and modifies the file 'SYSTEM.INI' in your Windows
	directory. The string 'device=<DISK>:\<PATH>\WINDPMI.386' will be
	inserted after '[386Enh]'.

	 [386Enh]
	 device=<DISK>:\<PATH>\WINDPMI.386

	where <DISK> and <PATH> indicate the disk and path where the
	WINDPMI.386 file is located.

	After installation, please check the 'CONFIG.SYS' file in the root
	directory of your boot disk. The following setting is necessary :

		DEVICE=<DISK>:\<PATH>\HIMEM.SYS         // refer to your DOS manual
		DEVICE=<DISK>:\<PATH>\EMM386.EXE
                DEVICE=<DISK>:\<PATH>\SMARTDRV.EXE
