Using a NetSetGo disk to reformat an ACEpc hard drive and install all the correct software to enable IP address networking

Introduction

This procedure will completely overwrite any data on the hard drive of the ACEpc.

This is not a problem on a flowline where the data resides on the main MH hard drive in a shared directory c:\saw.

If this process is to be carried out on a standalone saw or router, make sure the data is backed up first.


Step 1 - Insert disk (Power off)

Power off the machine and insert the NetSetGo disk



Step 2 - Power On

Switching on with the floppy disk in will boot from the floppy drive instead of the hard drive



Step 3 - Format Hard Drive and copy Zip

The PC will boot from the floppy disk and you will be prompted

Proceed with format


Press Y


You will then be prompted


Volume label [enter]


Press Enter


This will format the hard drive and then copy all necessary network software as a ZIP file to the hard drive and then inflate it.

Step 4 - Run NetEdit from command prompt

Follow the procedure for Setting IP address using NetEdit
