Welcome to Band-in-a-Box for Windows version 6.03

If you've purchased the PRO version of Band-in-a-Box:
   Remember that, even if you don't plan to use the DOS version
   of Band-in-a-Box, there are styles / songs on the DOS Band-in-a-Box
   disks that you can use with the Windows version. So you should
   install those disks as well. Otherwise you will get messages like
   "style not found."
******************************
BBW 6.0 requires a computer with 3mb RAM or more. It will not run
on a 2mb machine (or will run very slowly due to memory constraints).
******************************
If you use TSR virus scanning programs (like VSAFE.SYS (from CPAV or DOS 6.0))
sometimes these programs won't let you run an upgraded version without a 
message that the program's .exe size has been "changed" (i.e. upgraded ). 
Sometimes they issue a message like (File access denied) when you try to 
run the new program. If so, delete the c:\bb\smartchk.cps or 
c:\bb\chklist.ms file that these programs use for checking, and re-run the 
program. Note: You should not encounter this problem with a normal install 
of BBW, it is only applicable if you install "manually" for some reason.
******************************
INSTALLING FROM DOS IF YOU HAVE ANY PROBLEM WITH INSTALL FROM WINDOWS
If you have any problems installing the software using the installation
program, you can install the program "manually" from DOS (or a DOS Window).
To do this, run the INSTDOS.BAT program. This program uses the DUNPACK.EXE
utility to expand the files to your c:\bb directory. If installing manually
remember to read the READDOS.TXT file which tells you to copy the 2 font files
to c:\windows\system .
******************************
If the installation program can't copy the pgtext.tt$ or pgmusic.tt$ file
this means that these font files are already in use by Windows. This occurs 
when you are already running one of PG Music's programs as you try 
to install a new one. In this case, reboot Windows and install again.

Have Fun ! PG Music Inc.
