 IV. How to Reach Humongous Entertainment


I. Installing the Game
----------------------

   Windows 95
   ----------
   Nothing needs to be installed before running the game.  To start,
   simply insert the CD into the drive, clicking Start, then Run, and typing
   D:\AUTOSAM.EXE (where D: is the letter of your CD-ROM drive).
   
   Windows 3.1
   -----------
   Before playing the game for the first time, the Install program must
   be run.  We install Microsoft's 32-bit Windows system files, Win32s
   (version 1.3), and WinG (version 1.0) to the hard disk.  These files
   require only about 3MB of disk space for installation.
   
   To install Win32s and WinG, just follow these steps:
   
   1. Insert the game CD into your CD-ROM drive.
   2. Open the File menu in Program Manager and select Run...
   3. Type D:\INSTALL and press Enter
      (Where D: is the letter of your CD-ROM drive)
   4. Click Quick Install, and follow the prompts
   5. After installation is complete, click Restart Windows to enable
      Win32s and WinG


II. Removing the Game, Win32s, and WinG
---------------------------------------

   The game, Win32s, and WinG may all be removed from within the
   installation program.  Because installation of the product is only
   necessary under Windows 3.1, you should never have to uninstall the
   game with Windows 95.
   
   To remove the game files, just follow these steps:
   
   1. Insert the game CD into your CD-ROM drive.
   2. Open the File menu in Program Manager and select Run...
   3. Type D:\INSTALL and press Enter
      (Where D: is the letter of your CD-ROM drive)
   4. Click the Advanced Options button in the Welcome to Install
      dialog box.  This will open the Advanced Options dialog box.
   5. Click on the Uninstall Options button to open the Uninstall
      Options dialog box.  Click Yes to continue.
   6. Check the components (Game, WinG, or Win32s) which you wish to
      uninstall, then click Continue.
   
   The selected components will be removed from the system, as will the
   icons which they created.  The computer may have to be restarted for
   these changes to take effect.
   
   Note:  Removing WinG or Win32s will render the system unable to run
   Humongous Entertainment games, or any other programs which require
   these libraries.

III. Technical Issues
---------------------

   Many of the problems which you may experience with our games are
   caused by outdated hardware drivers.  To resolve these problems, you
   may be called on to contact the manufacturer of your hardware device
   for an updated driver.  If you have access to the Internet, check
   our web site at www.humongous.com for links to these manufacturer's
   pages.

   a. Problems Installing
   ----------------------

      Win32s has not been correctly installed
      ---------------------------------------
      One of the Win32s system files required by our game may not have
      been copied correctly during installation, or a file has become
      corrupted.
 
      You will want to run the Microsoft Win32s installer, which is
      included on our game CD. The file is located in:

      D:\system\setup\win32s.130\disk1\setup.exe
      (Where D: is the letter of your CD-ROM drive)

      Follow the prompts and reboot the machine when asked.  You will
      not need to install FreeCell, although this game will allow you
      to confirm that Win32s has been installed correctly.  In most
      cases, the game should run correctly after reinstalling Win32s.

      Your computer does not have enough memory to run the game.
      ----------------------------------------------------------
      To increase the amount of available memory for our game, make
      sure that all other applications are closed.  Some programs that
      commonly run in the background are virus scanners, nonstandard
      Windows shells, and third-party screen savers.
      
      A low-memory error message can also be caused by a Windows swap
      file that is not large enough (Windows 3.1).  In the 386-Enhanced
      section of your control panel, try increasing the size of your
      swap file to at least 4 MB.
      
      In some cases, corrupted Win32s files may trigger a low-memory
      error message.  Try completely removing, then reinstalling the
      game to replace any corrupted files.

      A memory error message which refers to Smartdrive can usually be
      solved by reducing the size of your disk cache.  Consult your 
      MS-DOS documentation for information on disabling or reducing the
      size of your Smartdrive cache.

   b. Sound Card Issues
   --------------------

      Gravis Ultrasound and UltraSound Max
      ------------------------------------
      Older versions of the Ultrasound drivers will not work correctly
      with our games.  Contact Advanced Gravis for updated drivers.

      Oak Mozart Sound Cards
      ----------------------
      Older versions of the Mozart drivers will trigger an error
      message, and close the game.  Obtain an updated driver from Oak
      Technologies, and the game will run correctly.

      Turtle Beach Monte Carlo
      ------------------------
      If you experience problems with this sound card, make sure it is
      in standard mode, and not V-synth mode.  Consult your sound card
      documentation for information about changing modes.

   C. Video Card Issues
   --------------------

      256-Color Video Drivers
      -----------------------
      A 256-color video driver must be installed for the game to run
      correctly.  A higher color depth (such as 16 or 24-bit color) may
      result in slower video performance, so if you are running in one
      of these modes, you may want to switch back to 256 colors.

      Unhandled Exception Detected
      ----------------------------
      A message which says "Unhandled Exception Detected" usually
      indicates that the currently installed video driver is not
      working well with WinG and needs to be updated.  Contact the
      manufacturer of your video card for an updated driver.

      ATI Mach 64 Video Cards
      -----------------------
      In some cases, you may experience extremely slow frame rates,
      resulting in choppy video, freezing, or breaks in the sound.  Try
      adding the line "StretchEngine=0" to the [Display] section of
      your system.ini.  In many cases, this will result in dramatically
      increased video performance.

      ATI cards may also cause problems because they use a utility to
      switch screen resolutions on-the-fly, rather than through the
      Windows Setup icon in the Control Panel.  The problem is that
      the ATI driver actually runs in 24-bit color (16.7 million
      colors) and just emulates 256-color mode.  Programs which use
      WinG may not recognize the emulation.  However, there is a
      setting on the Flexdesk or WinSwitch screens that will allow you
      to turn on color depth switching.  This will speed up the game
      because WinG does not have to calculate a 256-color palette from
      16.7 million possible colors.

   d. Other
   --------

      Digital Starions
      ----------------
      When attempting to play the game, you may receive an error
      message which says "This program has performed an illegal
      operation and will be shut down." The details button shows that a
      general protection fault occurred in module "Wstream.dll"

      This problem can be remedied by obtaining an updated driver for
      the Diamond Telecommander card.  Contact Digital for this driver.

      Hewlett-Packard Deskjet Printers
      --------------------------------
      Hewlett-Packard printer drivers for Windows 3.1 before version
      6.1 will not print correctly from our games.  Contact Hewlett-
      Packard for updated drivers, or download them directly from HP's
      web site.

      Microsoft Mouse
      ---------------
      Versions of the Microsoft Intellipoint mouse driver before 9.01
      conflict with Win32s programs, causing a general protection fault
      in module pointer.dll.  Contact Microsoft for an update, or
      download the patch from our web site (www.humongous.com).

      Error messages which make references to Scripts, Costumes, Code
      Blocks, Actors, Globs, Music Read Failures, Illegal Sounds, or
      SCUMM
      ---------------------------------------------------------------
      In many cases, these types of errors are the result of a disk
      that has become dirty or damaged.  The first and easiest thing to
      do in this situation is remove the CD-ROM from the drive and
      examine the shiny side in the light.  Quite frequently CDs become
      fingerprinted--especially by little fingers.  If the disk does
      look fingerprinted, a simple cleaning of the CD-ROM may get the
      game running.  If the disk appears to be scratched, or if
      cleaning does not solve the problem, contact our Technical
      Support department.
