The Match Up Program - Page 2 - Pace and Cap

you really neednt use an installation disk: i have the matchup program, and it is composed of two executable files, BRUN30.exe and a MATCH.exe. Copy those files to a memory stick, manually create a matchup folder in the programs file, or anywhere else that pleases you, paste your executables, create a shortcut, and voila, the matchup. you will need dosprn to run your printer.

i would seriously recommend tamedos to you: this program reduces the load on your cpu (running a dos program in vista exceeds 50% total cpu capacity on average, with spikes up to 100% fairly common); it also manages dos' peculiar memory and graphics requirements without a hitch. i believe it costs 15 bucks.

Thanks for all of the advice. Sorry it took me so long to respond. Unfortunately, to quote the Stones “nothing I do seems to work”. Perhaps the 3.5” discs are corrupted. Anyway I appreciate the effort.

This option won't work for me because I did not save the files from my old computer. The current files are compressed on 3.5" floppys and they won't install. Thanks anyway.

In the FUTURE guys can we move ALL discussions/help regarding ANY software out of the Hat Check area out of respect to Jim.

Searching HIS posts you will see he had NO use for software and didn't want it in this area including HIS stuff ok?
