2. Place the version 3.5 Supplementary Modem Scripts disk in the disk drive.



3. Use the MS-DOS utility EXPAND.EXE to expand the desired script from the disk.
   
   NOTE: EXPAND.EXE can usually be found in DOS subdirectory.

5. When the Script Install Selection screen appears, highlight the option Location of Additional Script files..., and press the ENTER key. Then continue with the Selected Options.
   
   NOTE: Do not select scripts from the list, as this will cause the error again.
