If one of the three files with an ASC extension is missing from the disk or location of SETUP.EXE, the list of available video, printer, or computer selections will be empty. Any number entered will return the following error message:

There is no selection with that number. Please type another number.

The VID.ASC file is a text file of available video adapters for Word version 5.00. KBD.ASC contains the listing of keyboard types, for example, “IBM or compatible”. The PRD.ASC file is a text file listing the available printer drivers included with Word version 5.00 (additional printer support is available on the Microsoft Word Supplemental Printers disks).

KBD.ASC, PRD.ASC, and VID.ASC should be located on the Utilities 1 disk (5.25 inch) or the Utilities disk (3.5 inch).
