The installation disk should contain the following files:
| _inst32i.ex_ | Installer 32bit engine |
| _isdel.exe | De-installer engine |
| _setup.dll | Installer library |
| _sys1.cab | Installer library cabinet file |
| _user1.cab | Installer library cabinet file |
| data.tag | Installer configuration file |
| data1.cab | Program cabinet file |
| data2.cab | Program cabinet file |
| file_id.diz | FTP/BBS Program information file |
| lang.dat | Language data file |
| layout.bin | Program layout configuration |
| os.dat | Operating system data file |
| setup.bmp | Installer splash screen |
| setup.exe | Installer executable |
| setup.ini | Installer configuration file |
| setup.ins | Installer configuration file |
| setup.lid | Installer configuration file |
If any of the above files are missing, try to download the package
from another site. If some are corrupted - there must have been
an error during transmission (check that you downloaded in binary
mode) - repeat the operation.
All program files are compressed, so you should let the Install Wizard decompress & copy them to the hard disk. The Install program will also create a program group and add the program items. The InstallShield is the installer for Windows applications and is used by most commercial and shareware applications. It is arguably the best so you are very likely to have it already installed on your machine.
While the total size of the ZIP is more than 1.44MB, the files
have been designed to fit on two (or more) floppy disks. To create
a 1.44MB floppy disk install do the following:
That's it! Unfortunately, you cannot make an install using smaller floppy disks. If this is a problem, contact us.
After installation, this is what you should have in the Sandra's folder:
| sandra.exe | Main program file |
| sandra.hlp | Program help file |
| sandra.cnt | Program help file index |
| san16.exe | Helper library |
| script.ini | Sample batch-mode report generation script |
| sandra.str | Configuration file |
| sandra.bio | Configuration file |
| sandra.cpu | Configuration file |
| sandra.mmm | Configuration file |
| sandra.mon | Configuration file |
| sandra.pci | Configuration file |
| sandra.tip | Configuration file |
And in the Windows\System folder:
| mfc42.dll | Microsoft VC++ MFC library |
| msvcrt.dll | Microsoft VC++ MFC library |
These files are used by most MFC applications written in Microsoft
Visual C++ 98, i.e. most modern Windows applications, so it's
likely that you have them already on your system in which case
they will not be copied.
IT IS STRONGLY RECOMMENDED THAT YOU SAVE/CLOSE EVERYTHING YOU ARE WORKING AT (open documents, files, etc.) BEFORE RUNNING THE PROGRAM FOR THE FIRST TIME. THE PROGRAM WAS TESTED FOR INCOMPATIBILITIES BUT YOU NEVER KNOW
If you find no problems then you can cool down. But do save regularly.
