Just Click on the "SETUP" button and QuickDog will install "in the blink of an eye"! If it does not, click here to view additional directions which will setup your WINDOWS 98 or WINDOWS ME so that QuickDog will install.

Once you exit QuickDog the FIRST TIME, QuickDog will place an ICON on your desktop. To startup QuickDog again, just look for the RED, WHITE and BLUE Greyhound on your desktop. Double-click it and you'll start up QuickDog again. DELETE the DOGS ICON so you do not get confused.

If the QuickDog Greyhound ICON doesn't appear on your desktop you may create an ICON by creating a shortcut to the \jaidogs\quickdog.exe ICON and dragging it to your desktop. For help on doing this, please write to us - jai@gorge.net and mention your problem. You are now finished with the "dogs.exe" desktop icon and you may delete it by dragging it to the TRASH icon on your desktop. Do not use the dogs.exe icon to start up QuickDog.
