Before running LineDrive for the first time, make sure that
you are familiar with the contents of this file.
LineDrive requires the following minumum require-
ments:
1 MEG OF FREE DISK SPACE. This can be free space on
a hard disk, one 1.44 meg 3.5 inch disk drive, or one 1.2 meg
5.25 disk drive, or 1 720Kb floppy in combination with a 360Kb
floppy drive.
(We have retained an older version of LineDrive that allows a
league of up to 8 teams may be played on a two 360 kb floppy disks.
If you would like a copy of this version of the program specify
LineDrive 7.0 when registering.)
A COLOR MONITOR. This can be CGA, EGA or VGA.
YOU MUST HAVE THE FOLLOWING STATEMENTS IN THE CONFIG.SYS
FILE ON YOUR BOOT DISK OR THE ROOT DIRECTORY OF YOUR HARD DISK:
FILES = 15
BUFFERS = 25
These are minumum requirements. If the number of Files and
Buffers specified in your config.sys exceeds these numbers that's
fine. If you don't have enough files it is a simple procedure to
add the above statements to your CONFIG.SYS file. Simply load your
current CONFIG.SYS file (found in the root directory of your
hard disk or boot-up diskette) into your favorite word
processor and add the above lines. MAKE SURE YOU SAVE THE FILE
IN THE ASCII FORMAT (there will instructions on saving an
ASCII file in your word processor). DOS 5 users can use the
EDIT program that came with DOS 5. EDIT automatically saves
in the ASCII format.
LineDrive Fantasy Baseball (hereafter referred to as LineDrive)
is copyrighted software - it is not now and never has been in the

being for materials and/or handling charges. The cost of the disk
