It is important that the autoexec file contain the following lines, or you
type them in at the command line after you have powered the computer on, and
assuming you have the tools in the default patsh from the install:

SET path=%path%F:\adi_dsp\21xx\lib;
SET path=%path%F:\adi_dsp\21xx\bin;
SET path=%path%F:\adi_dsp\21xx\etc;
SET path=%path%F:\adi_dsp\21xx\include;
SET ADI_DSP=F:\adi_dsp\
SET ADI_PATH=F:\work;
SET ADII=F:\adi_dsp\21xx\include;F:\work\inc;

Use the drive letter that corresponds to your hard drive in place of "F"
in the above example.  If you don't already have a "work" directory,
you'll need to create one.
