                              ================

System Requirements
-------------------

This program is available in two versions: one with 8-bit samples (for use
with 8- or 16-bit Sound Blasters), and one with 16-bit samples (for use with
the Sound Blaster 16 only). Either version can also be used without a sound
card, using the PC's built-in speaker.

The system requirements vary with the version supplied. To check which
version you have, enter

    VERSION

from the DOS prompt.

The basic (8-bit samples) version requires the following:

    - PC compatible computer
    - VGA display adapter
    - 512K RAM (640K for Sound Blaster, with 536,000 bytes free
      as reported by CHKDSK)

Although it should (?) run on an 8086 machine, it probably needs a 286 or
better to be of any use.

The 16-bit sample version requires the following:
  
    - PC compatible computer (286 or better)
    - VGA display adapter
    - 2Mb RAM (566,000 bytes free conventional memory, plus 622,592 bytes
      (608K) of XMS (extended memory))
    - Sound Blaster 16

This version can also be used on the basic system outlined above, if the PC
speaker sound option is used.


Installation
------------

To install the program, all that is required is to create a directory for
it on your hard disk and copy the files across. A program is included to
do this for you, if necessary. Type INSTALL and follow the instructions
given.


Running
-------

Start the game by typing

    LOTF

The first time this is done, the SETUP program will be run automatically,
allowing you to set the sound device and other options. This program can be
run at any time, should you want to change any of the settings, by entering

    SETUP

at the command prompt.

Note: If you are running the 16-bit version with the Sound Blaster 16, check
the treble setting on the mixer. The SB16 software has probably set this to
zero, to hide the noise heard when playing 8-bit samples. You should change
this back to 127 when playing 16-bit samples, otherwise the sound will be
unnecessarily dulled.


Problems
--------

Should you have any problems running the program, a description of error
messages and possible solutions is available by typing

    HELP

This also contains help on setting up your machine to get the best results
from the Sound Blaster cards.

You can also view *this* file (that you're reading now), by typing

    README
