SUMMARY
=======
 
When you install Microsoft Works for the Macintosh to the Macintosh TV,
you may experience problems with the computer reading the Works
installation disks. This problem can be corrected by duplicating the Works
installation disks on another Macintosh with disks that have been formatted
on the Macintosh TV.
 
MORE INFORMATION
================
 
To duplicate the Works disks, follow these instructions:
 
1. Format five blank 800K disks on the Macintosh TV. If you have Works
   version 4.0, you will need to format six 1.4mb disks.
 
2. Take these disks, and the Works installation disks, to another
   Macintosh model (for example, Macintosh IIci, Macintosh
   Performa, and so on) computer.
 
3. Insert the first Works disk, and drag its disk icon onto the
   hard drive. A folder will be created on the hard drive with
   the name of the Works disk.
 
4. Eject the first Works disk, and insert a disk that was
   formatted on the Macintosh TV.
 
5. Open the folder that was created on the hard drive for the
   first Works disk, and drag the contents onto the blank
   floppy disk icon.
 
6. Change the name of the blank floppy disk to be the same as
   the folder from which you copied the files. The five Works disk
   titles are:
 
      Works Disk 1 - Install
      Works Disk 2
      Works Disk 3
      Works Disk 4
      Works Disk 5
      Works Disk 6
 
7. Return to step 3 and continue this process until you have
   duplicated all the disks.
 
Once you have duplicated the disks, return to the Macintosh
TV, and run the installation for Microsoft Works.
