Dear sir
I have in my job an authorized Siemens Step 5 software. But if I change the computer, I need to reinstall the authorization key.
Then I have gotten an old and free version of Step5, version 6.3 (4 diskettes). This version needs DOS-version 3.3 or plus.
I have installed it in my computer with Windows 98 OS, but it does not run. I have contacted the Siemens representative in my city (in Brazil), and they recommended me:
-to include in CONFIG.SYS: device=c:\windows\setver.exe and restart computer
- after the boot, in C:\WINDOWS type the following:
SETVER APPEND.EXE 6.22
If the answer is OK, them type S5 in the directory C:\STEP5
But it doesn't work.
If I use the DOS prompt (Start-Programs-DOS) I can open the software but I can't use the instruction like Transfer (File-PLC,...), Edit Bloks. In fact, I only can use the Settings for file name (Page1)
If I use the MS-DOS (Restart the computer in DOS mode) I can't open the software and the error message is: Not found the "CP/M file s5kxs01x.cmd" and if I type at DOS prompt Append the error message is: "incorrect DOS version".
Could someone help me?
