Rusty,

Do you have "Book Reader Library" in C:\GEOWORKS\SYSTEM? The MS-DOS name of
this file is "CONVIEW.GEO". Book Reader itself can really go in any
directory, but the library file has to be in that directory on either drive
B: or C:. I put the library file there and it works.

When you install your RAM card, do you do it with the power on? I have found
that things work much better when you do -- the Zoomer realizes that the
card has been inserted and scans it. If you do it with the power off, I'm
not sure what it does. Also, I have had some problems when I switched cards
with the power off. An application that had a file open on the card,
suddenly doesn't have that file anymore. Never do this.

Try this: in File Manager, go to B:\GEOWORKS\SYSTEM. Do you see "Book Reader
Library" underlined? If you don't, then select Utilities, Rescan Drives. I
don't know what else to do.
