      facility.  You can choose an item from the Help:Contents  menu  or
      use the hot key F1.  English is the help system default  language.
      If you wish to change it,  choose an item Help:Language.   In  the
      appear red window choose the language you need  and click  the  OK
      button. You can navigate in the help system using cursor keys or a
      mouse on the scrolling bar. You can go to hypertext links by press
      TAB (forward) or Shift-TAB (back)  and  Enter  (go  to  the  link)
      buttons. To quit the help system, press the ESC button.

                          5.4 Creating a File Report

      To create a file report,  choose the Full Report item (hot key F2)
      in the Report menu.  You can type the report name and comments  in
      the appeared window. By default program will create file astra.rpt
      with the content of the ASTRA's all information  windows  will  be
      created in its catalogue.  If your computer has  a  network  name,
      file report will be named after it (maximum 8 symbols).   Creation
      of  summary  (Report:Summary  Report)  and  INI   (Report:JoyStock
      Report, see 4.5) reports is also available.

                      5.5 Running in a Command Line Mode

      Command-line mode:
      ASTRA /R[J,S] [[path\]filename[.ext]] [/Q] [/?]

        /R[S,J] [[path\]filename[.ext]] - creating report in the  'path'
      directory with the 'filename' name and '.ext' extension.   Default
      'path' directory is the program's directory even if it is not  the
      current directory. The default name of the created file is 'astra'
      or your network computer name, the default extension is '.rpt'
          [S] - creating summary report
          [J] - creating a JoyStock format report, the default extension
          is '.rjs'.

          5.6 Using ASTRA with hardware inventory management software

      To create a file report in INI format,  choose the JoyStock Report
      item in the Report menu or use /RJ command line key. This file can
      be imported to Hardware Inspector.

                              Hardware Inspectror
      Hardware Inspector is the application for automated hardware asset
      tracking and inventory  management  of  hardware.    The  Hardware
      Inspector is unique because  it  keeps  separate  records  of  the
      devices,  and not just configuration settings  of  each  computer.
      Each device is assigned a passport,  and  the  program  keeps  the
      history of its transitions between workplaces and registers  their
      maintenance   information.        See    more    information    on
      http://www.hwinspector.com

                         5.7 Running in Multitask OS

      Program runs in a DOS-window under Windows 9x/Me. Due to  the  use
      of the external Win32 module,  program running in a DOS-window  is
      absolutely identical to the program operation in pure DOS.  Before
      starting  the  program  in  multitask  OS,    please  close    all
      applications and make sure that no programs are using disk  drives
      and sound card otherwise identification of these  devices  can  be
      incorrect.  Attention: after starting the program all data in  the
      Windows clipboard will be lost.  The program can't  be  run  in  a
      DOS-window under Windows 3.x, Windows NT/2000/XP and OS/2.

                               6. Known Bugs

      1. While detecting your sound card using EMM386 memory manager the
         following message can be displayed: 'EMM386 DMA buffer  is  too
         small. Add D=64 parameter and reboot'. Do what EMM386 asks, and
         everything will be fine.
      2. SPD information can't be  read  from  memory  modules  on  some
         Asustek motherboard models.
