ThinkTank Manual
shown in Figure 2—8 above, it is correctly configured for a
hard disk drive (or possibly for more than two floppy
drives). Press B and ThinkTank will give you a chance to
browse through your outlines. It begins to display the names or
titles of the outlines it finds on your disks. You can
press RETURN to select an outline or the right arrow key to
display the next name. If you want to load the sample
outline, its title is THINKTANK DEMONSTRATION and the file is
called THINKTANK.DB.
When you press RETURN to select the outline you want,
ThinkTank will read it from your data disk and display its
title at the top of your screen.
2. If ThinkTank displays the message:
PRESS (SPACEBAR)
AFTER INSERTING DISKETTE IN DRIVE 2
then it is configured for two floppy disk drives. If Drive 2
(PASCAL device #5) on your system is a floppy disk drive,
simply place your data disk in Drive 2 and press the space
bar. If not, you (or your dealer) will have to reconfigure
ThinkTank as a hard disk system as described in Appendix D un-
der “Installing ThinkTank on a Hard Disk.”
If your computer is set up correctly and you follow these
steps, you should have no trouble starting up ThinkTank. In
the rare case that a problem arises, ThinkTank will help to
diagnose it by displaying an error message at the bottom of
the screen. These messages are listed in the reference guide
along with their most likely causes and recommended courses of
action. -You should also recheck the instructions for instal-
ling ThinkTank on a-hard disk in Appendix D. If problems per-
sist, consult your dealer or Living Videotext.
You may want to configure your hard disk system to start up
ThinkTank automatically when you turn on your computer, or
at least to set the swapping option when you enter PASCAL or
execute ThinkTank. Your dealer can help you do this or you
can do it yourself. Detailed technical information on this
topic is available from Living Videotext in a ThinkTank
technical note described in-Appendix D of this manual.
