Known Problems
----------------------------------------------------------------------
On certain systems the keyboard does not function properly.
If you are using one of these systems, instead of typing
KOS
type
KOS key
or
KOS key ask
at the dos prompt, or operate the program with the mouse.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
If you never see video, but can see the menus when you hit Escape,
your sound card is not configured properly.
Check your documentation, autoexec.bat or win.ini
files for the proper IRQ, DMA, and PORT and enter these manually after
typing KOS ask.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Certain Sound Cards, such as the Diamond SonicLX card, and the MediaMagic
soundcard can be configured using a utility that comes with the card
to be a SoundBlaster or a Windows Sound System card.
The utility is variously named ISPINIT.EXE or SONIC.EXE.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The program cannot autodetect these cards when they are configured in
SoundBlaster mode. Furthermore, if configured as Sound Blaster, you can only
run the program once between reboots. The second run will fail.
Please configure these sound cards in Microsoft Mode using
the utility, type KOS ask, and specify that you are using a Microsoft
Sound card,
-OR-
Note the IRQ, Port, and other information for the SoundBlaster configuration.
(IRQ 11 is not supported. If you chose IRQ 11 please change it).
Type KOS ask, and specify an old sound blaster. Enter the port and IRQ, and
note that the program will only run once.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
If you have any other problems, a long shot: try removing the memory managment
from your config.sys and try again.
If you use DOS 6.0, you can set up alternate boot configurations.
