DAS installation guide
1. Install Windows XP with service pack 3 and create two users with administrator privileges OWNER and STAR.
2. Partition your hard drive like this:
C: minimum 15 GB of free space
D: minimum 1 GB of free space, 5 GB recommended
E: minimum 1 GB of free space, 20 GB recommended if you will be installing WIS later
F: minimum 15 GB of free space, 20 GB recommended
You can use any partitioning software, but make sure drive letters match! If you are looking for partitioning software, EASUS Partition Master Home Edition or MiniTool Partition Wizard are free and should do the job.
3. Set your date to be approx. one month after STAR DVD release.
4. Run prepare.bat file and follow it's instructions.
5. Place the STAR DVD into laptop drive.
6. Launch G:\stardiag\setup.exe file (assuming your DVD drive letter is G). Installation may finish immediately and ask you to reboot your computer. Let it do it and launch setup again after reboot. Once installation starts, ignore error -6003 (if it occurs). Just press OK to continue installation process.
7. If you need to repeat DAS installation using another language, do it before proceeding to the next step.
8. Once your DAS will be installed, do not press finish button to reboot your computer. Launch included file after installation.bat.
9. Navigate to: Control panel > System > Hardware > Device manager > Ports (COM & LPT). Right click on that COM port you have left enabled and and select Properties.
Go to Port Settings tab and set these values:
Bits per second: 115200
Data bits: 8
Parity: None
Stop bits: 1
Flow Control : None
Then click on Advanced... button and make sure Use FIFO buffers are checked and COM Port Number is set to COM2.
Press OK and close Device manager.
10. Reboot your computer. If you find your STAR user account is locked then try this password: User$star2004. If it does not work, log into your other account (OWNER) and remove the password for user STAR.
11. You will probably need to apply some DAS fixes. You will find them in DAS fixes folder.
GOOD LUCK!
