Installation of BASCOM

After you have downloaded the ZIP file you need to UNZIP the file.

On Windows XP, for the DEMO version, you may run the setupdemo.exe file from within the Zipped file. For the full version you should unzip the ZIP file.

 

The commercial version comes with a license file in the form of a DLL. This file is always on the disk where the file SETUP.EXE is located. When explorer does not show this file, you must set the option in explorer to view system files (because a DLL is a system file).

For the commercial version the setup file is named SETUP.EXE

 

Some resellers might distribute the DLL file in a zipped file. Or the file might have the extension of a number like "123". In this case you must rename the extension to DLL.

 

Make sure the DLL is in the same directory as the SETUP.EXE file.

 

When you are using the DEMO version you don't need to worry about the license file.

 

 

When you are installing on a NT machine like NT4 , W2000, XP, Vista or Win7, you need to have Administrator rights.

After installing BASCOM you must reboot the computer before you run BASCOM.

 

The installation example will describe how the FULL version installs. This is almost identical to the installation of the  DEMO version.

 

Run the SETUPDEMO.EXE (or SETUP.EXE) by double clicking on it in explorer.

 

 

The following window will appear:
