| 3. Trouble Shooting Q/A |
+-------------------------+
Q. The game doesn't run! It gives Not Enough Base Memory error!
A. This 1995CARD game requires at least 540KB Base Memory in which you
will get more memory by removing TSRs, such as those programs that
are loaded during computer boot-up. To increase base memory, try
boot with clean-disk (to make clean-boot disk, use FORMAT A: /S).
Also you may want to try to remove some TSRs that are loaded from
AUTOEXEC.BAT file in hard drive.
---
Q. When I run the game under windows, the program terminates. Why?
A. I recommend you to exit windows, and run the game in standard DOS.
If you still want to run the game under window, please change sound
mode(sound card, digital speaker mode) to normal speaker mode in
Setup.exe. Then, the game will run fine.
---
Q. When I switch to 'Speaker Digital' mode, the speaker just makes a lot
of noise-like sound when playing the game!
A. 'Speaker Digital' option in Setup.exe was intended to be used only
with high-speed computers, such as 386-33, 486, 586+(Pentium), etc.
Even 386 with 16Mhz speed is not fast enough to support digitized sound
for internal speaker. If you don't have sound card, then choose
'Speaker Normal' option which does not use digitized sound.
---
Q. Setup.exe doesn't detect my sound card!
A. This game support 100% Sound Blaster compatibles Music card, and
Gravis Ultrasound card. Make sure your Sound Card supports Sound
Blaster, and load appropriate driver if necessary. However,
SB-emulation may not work since this game does not use native mode,
but uses DMA operation for sound and music.
---
Q. For the SB compatible sound card, the music stops right after some
sound...
A. Probably you have wrong IRQ number. If you haven't install with
your disk that came with sound card, I recommend to install it.
However, you may change by running Setup.exe, and change IRQ.
The default is set to 7(most common), but try to change to 5 which
is pretty common as well.
---
Q. When I play music, everything slows down, even mouse!
A. The generated music is a high-quality digital music which requires
high burden of the CPUs, which 386/486+ or better is a minimum.
Please turn Music Enable option off in Setup.exe if you experience
problems with music.
Also, try NOT to change 'TURBO' button during or before the game
start. If you have changed your computer's turbo button, try to
reboot and run the game again.
--
Q. Program hangs when I play with 'Speaker Digital' option in Setup.exe!
A. Again, for slow computers such as 386-16,20, etc, computer may not
catch up with heavily digitized sound to the speaker. Turn off this
option, and choose 'Speaker Normal' option in Setup.exe.
