1 - WARNING

   1.1 - Copyrights belong to their respective owners listed in section 13;
         this boot disk was put together using different programs collected
         over the years along with some of my own.

   1.2 - All responsability for any damages caused directly or indirectly
         by using/installing this package are solely your own; TechW0rm was
         created for experienced DOS users and has been made as bug free as
         possible, yet this does not rule out all possible problems.
        
   1.3 - DRVSPACE is disabled when booting from this disk.

   1.4 - Microsoft's products, or Microsoft itself, appears to have a
         problem with QEMM386.  Please use "skip startup" to avoid any
         problems re-installing Windows or select EMM386.EXE.

   1.5 - The disk uses MS-DOS7!  It is likely that your system uses a
         different version and therefore some of your dos programs may be
         incompatible; a special SETVER.EXE has been added to deal with
         any such problems.  Your system files (IO.SYS and COMMAND.COM)
         should be restored using a backup or your windows cd unless you
         have Win98SE.



2 - INSTALLING
        - Save TECHW0RM.ZIP in a directory on your hard drive.
        - Unzip it (to your hard drive) using PKUNZIP.EXE or WINZIP.
        - Pop a disk into the drive.
        - Run INSTALL.COM and pop the disk out as soon as it is finished.
        - Write protect the disk. (open the switch at the disk corner)
        - You're done.  Boot a system with the disk in to test it out.

5 - EXTENSION DISKS

    5.1 - Extension disks are one of the most interesting features of TechW0rm,
          they are disks used by choosing "disk2 startup" from the boot menu
          and allow using of these disks which have their own functions.
          The main extension disks at this time are:

           - NetW0rm: The internet boot disk, this disk allows you to
                      boot straight into arachne after answering the
                      most basic questions required to connect to the
                      internet; Phone Number, Username and Password.
           - AV-W0rm: This extension disk contains F-Prot; a popular,
                      reliable, and overall very good virus scanner.
                      When using this extension disk, all the work is
                      done for you, it immediatly begins scanning all
                      your hard drives for any virii and prompts you
                      for removal if any are found.
           - WinW0rm: An extension disk for booting directly into Win3.1
                      to format/partition/etc without having to know
                      any DOS command lines.



6 - F.A.Q.

    6.1  - How do I use PRESIZER.EXE?

                Use "skip startup", and use "nothing" -> then simply run
                PRESIZER.EXE but backup your data just in case!


    6.2  - How do I use PART.EXE (ranish partition manager)?

                Use "skip startup", and use "HIMEM.SYS" -> then simply run
                PART.EXE to use it.


    6.3  - What's the "security" option for?

                This option scans almost every file (using md5 hashing) to
                check their integrity, if one byte is changed, you'll be
                alerted.  The security option also scans the boot record
                for changes, you'll be alerted if it's changed as well.


    6.4  - What's a TSR, what is it on the menu?

                TSR stands for terminate and stay resident.  A tsr is a
                program that runs in the background.  For this particular
                disk, I have included programs such as peruse, to scroll
                back to see missed text, killer for invalid opcodes, etc. 
                Choose no unless you're going to spend your time in dos.


    6.5  - Ramdisk?  What's that?

                A ramdisk creates a fake hard drive out of ram, which will
                speed dos command usage and the like.  Turn this off if you
                don't intend to be using dos.


    6.6  - Why did you set all the filedates to 1999?

                Some programs *do* have difficulty with the year 2000,
                although the problems I've seen have been minor and
                non-damaging, that doesn't mean there aren't any yet to
                appear.  This prevents any possible problems.


    6.7  - How do I scroll up and see stuff I've missed?

                Hit the scroll lock key, then use the arrow keys.  Hit scroll
                lock again to return to the prompt.  TSRs have to be enabled.


    6.8  - Where is FDISK.EXE?

                You should have read the file list.  It's known as AEFDISK.EXE
                which I find to be a lot better.  Use "AUTOEXEC /L" for a
                list of partition types for use with AEFDISK.


    6.9  - What's the FP.SYS menu option in skip startup?

                FP.SYS is a driver that scans your hard drive for missing
                partitions; it will assign read-only drive letters to any
                of these partitions so you can backup data from them.
                Only use this option only if you know what you're doing.


    6.10 - I would like to use TechW0rm for gaming purposes, what do I do?

                For this, simply add the appropriate TSR sound driver lines
                to AUTOEXEC.BAT on the 13th line, right below "GOTO D" and
                above ":V".

                If you have any device drivers to load for your sound card,
                add the appropriate lines to the 23rd line, below
                "INCLUDE=B1" and above "INCLUDE=B2".



7 - FILE LIST
        The following list quickly describes each program on the disk.

8 - MEMORY USAGE
        This is the basic, and ideal memory results you should get by
        using MEM /C /P - if for some reason everything is loading into
        conventional memory, or quite a bit, or some other problem like
        that, then let me know.  Btw, yours definatly won't be exact,
        this is simply my system, as an example.

9 - PROBLEMS & CURES

    9.1 - Windows needs to be re-installed.

              Choose "skip startup" then "himem.sys", type "AUTOEXEC /C"
              to load the cd-rom driver, "X:" to switch to the CD-Rom
              drive, and "SETUP.EXE" to run Windows setup.


    9.2 - Bios is messed up/password protected/corrupted.

              Boot any way you like (faster=better), run CMOSPWD.EXE /K
              reboot, re-setup BIOS.


    9.3 - The drive is full of errors.

              Boot up, choose anything but skip startup (for smartdrv),
              and run SCANDISK.EXE, fix the errors.


    9.4 - A virus scanner says I have a virus or I believe I have one.

              Download AV-W0rm and unzip it to another disk.
              Boot from TechW0rm and choose "Disk2".


    9.5 - I'm getting "MD5-? Check Failed." What's up?

              This means that one/more files on disk are corrupted.
              Download/install TechW0rm again from a clean system.
              May be caused by a virus infection.


    9.6 - I'm getting "Ramdisk Error." What's up?

              This means that the ramdisk is not installing.
              It could be possible that you don't have enough RAM
              installed or there's something wrong with it.
              There are other possibilities, however.


    9.7 - I'm getting "Boot Sector Error." What's up?
   
              This means that the Boot Sector is corrupted.
              It's possible that the system on which you installed
              the disk was infected, or that windows itself simply
              changed the boot sector.  Re-install TechW0rm, or you
              might try booting using "skip startup"/"nothing",
              un-write-protecting the disk and typing:

                A:\SRCBOOT A: A:\BOOTSECT.BAK /R

              Write-protect the disk and try booting from the
              disk normally again.

  
    9.8 - I was told to format my drive; how?

              Choose "skip startup" and type "FORMAT C: /AUTOTEST"
              This removes all data from drive "C".
              If you wish to reinstall windows, type "AUTOEXEC /C"
              then "X:" and last, "SETUP.EXE" (with the windows cd in).


    9.9 - I've lost partitions, I need them back!

              Run PART.EXE by booting using 'Skip Startup' and
              'Himem.sys'; if you recognize your missing partition
              as an "unused" partition, you can recover it by
              hitting the "Insert" key and choosing the type of
              partition it used to be.

              If this fails to work, you could boot using 'Skip Startup'
              but choose 'FP.SYS' and wait for it to scan your system.
              It will then assign drives to your lost partitions if it
              finds them, you can then copy the information off of them.


   9.10 - I need to delete my partitions and create one large new one.

              Make sure you use AUTOEXEC /L to verify your partition
              type (that you would like to create).  Before creating
              your new partition, use "aefdisk /delall" to delete all
              your partitions.  Secondly, use "aefdisk /pri:0:type"
              where 'type' is the type of partition;

              FAT16: 04
              FAT32: 0C

              So for fat32, you'd use "aefdisk /pri:0:C".


   9.11 - I tried to install windows, it said to remove things first.

              Windows claims it isnt compatible with QEMM, maybe an
              early scheme to squash them out of business.  Just
              follow the directions for installing windows within
              this document.


   9.12 - I updated the file(s) [. . .], why won't it boot!?

              Due to the security feature, updating files other than
              AUTOEXEC.BAT and CONFIG.SYS isn't yet and may never be
              permitted.


   9.13 - The disk states that I have a "Boot Sector Error", help?

              This means that either the disk was infected with a
              virus, or that Windows (similar to a virus), overwrote
              the boot record because you didn't follow the
              installation instructions carefully or something went
              wrong.

              If you believe you have a virus, find a system that is
              clean (a friends computer, for example).  Then simply
              format the disk and download/reinstall it again.
              Get the extension disk "AV-W0rm" from the site to
              disinfect your system.

              If you don't think you have a virus; format the disk,
              download the latest version, shut down to msdos mode,
              and re-install the disk.


   9.14 - I always get "Top of memory NOT at 640K" when using VIDRAM.COM

              This is some sort of strange problem caused by the setver
              replacement.  As far as I know the only way to get around
              it is to not have setver installed on boot-up, so you
              have to run the TSRs manually.


   9.15 - TechW0rm doesn't boot at all; doesn't even reach the menu.

              Pop the disk in, un-write-protect it, and type (in dos):

              A:\SRCBOOT A: A:\BOOTSECT.BAK /R

              Pop the disk out the *instant* it says it has completed,
              write-protect it and boot the system...it should work.
              If it doesn't work, it may be that the drive isn't a
              1.4 meg drive, or that the disk is corrupted.


   9.16 - I get an error running PART.EXE

              Ensure you're using 'Skip Startup' and 'Himem.sys' before
              running PART.EXE, as it requires things which qemm386.sys
              doesn't provide.


    9.17 - TechW0rm freezes on Boot-Up, no error message, nothing.

              This is for those who make it past the boot menu.
              There are many possibilities.  I recommend trying
              'Custom Startup' and booting once with each option
              off and the rest on until it doesn't freeze, then
              e-mail me which option was off at the time.
              If this still doesn't correct the problem, it's
              possible your disk is corrupted.



10 - CHANGES

     Ver5.4 - The secret "NOTR" EMM386.EXE command keeps it from searching
              for a token ring network; it was added to keep it from
              freezing up some systems (in theory).  Added XTLINK.COM,
              which is an interlnk/intersvr clone with FAT32 support.
              The MD5 hash checking for all .SYS files was removed, as
              the chances of infection for such files is extremely low.
              COMMAND.COM's MD5 hash checking was also removed, as this
              will allow the DOS on disk to be replaced with another
              version for system compatibility.  VIDE-CDD was apparently
              freezing systems, so was decompressed.  More space was
              saved on the disk by having it use only 1 FAT and lowering
              the number of maximum root entries.

                 CTMOUSE.COM - Updated to V1.9b2

                 DELTREE.COM - Removed
                 DELTREE.EXE - Added/Compressed (Joergen Ibsen)
                 SYS.COM - Compressed (Joergen Ibsen)
                 EDIT.EXE - Compressed (Joergen Ibsen)
                 MEM.EXE - Compressed (Joergen Ibsen)

                 FORMAT.COM - Compressed (Joergen Ibsen)

     Ver5.3 - CONFIG.SYS/AUTOEXEC.BAT were removed from MD5_FIC1.BAK to
              allow editing of these files.  The cluster size used for
              ramdisks was changed to save ram.  Added a new menu option
              under the "skip startup" section (fp.sys) - read about the
              device in the file list.  Set the PATH environment variable
              to A:\ if it's not set.  XXCOPY was replaced since LCOPY
              supports LFNs in native DOS, and new versions of XXCOPY are
              bloated.  Removed PROTECT.COM from autoexec.bat, it's not
              likely that the disk needs to be forcefully write-protected.
              Inote/Rnote are quite impractical, so they were removed.
              TriDOS was removed because it's far too unstable/unsafe.
              EMM386.EXE menu options were added.  The cloaking option
              is no longer available when "No Cd-Rom Support" is chosen
              as it's a waste of memory and stability otherwise.  Default
              startup now no longer uses Security/Ramdrive as they take
              a long time and aren't usually needed.  The custom "Shell="
              lines were added to all the config.sys options.  Removed
              all TSRs except "SETVER" from Default boot, as they aren't
              needed in most cases.
                 FP.SYS - V1.2 Added (read about it!)
                 LCOPY.EXE - Added
                 XXCOPY.EXE - Removed
                 CMOSPWD.EXE - Updated to V3.0
                 UMBPCI.SYS - Updated to V3.30
                 PART.EXE - Updated to V2.41
                 INOTE.COM - Removed (useless/unstable)
                 RNOTE.COM - Removed (useless/unstable)
                 TRIDOS.EXE - Removed (unstable)
                 EMM386.EXE - Added (for compatibility)
                 WBUF.EXE - Removed (was unstable)
                 KEYBUF.COM - Added
                 KILLER.EXE - De-compressed (was unstable)

     Ver5.2 - IO.SYS has been modified slightly to make it a little more
              compatible with certain systems.  Removed the option to
              install TechW0rm drivers to a drive; this should be done
              manually...even if at all.  Config.sys has been modified
              for 'Disk2 Startup' as the settings in there seemed to cause
              some systems to freeze.
                 TRIDOS.EXE - Updated to V0.50
                 CMOSPWD.EXE - Updated to V2.8
                 UMBPCI.SYS - Updated to V3.27
                 DRVSPACE.BIN - Removed
                 HIMEM.SYS - Re-compressed (upx V1.06)
                 PART.EXE - Updated to V2.40

     Ver5.1 - The /L was added to autoexec.bat on command line as a
              reference to creating AEFDISK partitions.  Recompressed
              some TSRs to decrease their loading requirements. Command
              line loading of the CD-Rom now uses shsucdx instead of
              cloaking/mscdex since it may be used without XMS!
              Config.sys was made much smaller using the 'include'
              command and careful command placement.
                 CMOSPWD.EXE - Updated to V2.7
                 UMBPCI.SYS - Updated to V3.26
                 SHSUCDX.EXE - Re-compressed (less mem)
                 MSCDEX.EXE - Re-compressed (less mem)
                 UNIVBE.EXE - Re-compressed (less mem)

     Ver5.0 - This version seems to be stable as ever; even CTMOUSE
              appears to be bug-free.  Removed the (useless) secret
              switch (/s) from autoexec.bat.  Removed the loading
              of Fix27 from autoexec.bat, since there are no longer
              tsrs that require it.  Some urls were updated in these
              docs.  Changed the install (its now an image file)
              which should cure any installation problems.
                 CONFIG.SYS - Optimized (smaller)
                 CTMOUSE.COM - Updated to V1.8 final
                 CMOSPWD.EXE - Updated to V2.5
                 UMBPCI.SYS - Updated to V3.24
                 HIMEM.SYS - Replaced (100% compatible?)
                 TRIDOS.EXE - Updated to beta V0.48b
                 SCANDISK.EXE - Re-compressed (upx V1.04)
                 VIDE-CDD.SYS - Re-compressed (upx V1.04)
                 UMBPCI.SYS - Re-compressed (upx V1.04)

12 - THANKS

     12.1 - David Lindauer
                Dave is one damn good programmer, and for some reason
                seems to have enough patience to deal with my constant
                incessant demands.  Dave had ported mICQ to Dos, created
                LSicq and also the new version of "ESCAPE.EXE" which
                now appears on this disk.  Dave also created the dial-up
                packet driver, LSppp that is now used all over the world.
                Thanks man, dos wouldn't be half as cool without you.

                Vadim is another programmer whom I've been lucky enough
                to test software for.  Vadim's programming; TRIDOS.EXE,
                has seemingly broken all the rules with it's true
                multitasking and 1st meg emulation inside a 40k file.

     12.3 - Joergen Ibsen
                Joergen "Jibz" Ibsen created "APack", used to compress
                most of the executables on this disk very tightly,
                allowing enough room for the rest of the goodies from
                TechW0rm and also manually compressed and sent me the
                DOS utilities that come with MS-DOS (for release V5.4).
                Visit his website for APack and his other great software.
