ProtoStar patched and "tweaked" to patch #1

Installation:

1.  Extract protostar.zip with your favorite unarchiver.

2.  DblClick on proto.exe (This will extract the game into a directory called /proto under the location that you have chosen).

Playing the Game:

This game can be played in Windows if you have enough Conventional Memory available.  

Go to the folder where you extracted the game to and...

DblClick on proto.exe 

...and the game should start.

Sound:

The game is currently set up to run with sound set up for a Pc-Speaker.  Sound can be changed via an in-game control (move the mouse to the top of the screen and LClick on the leftmost icon), however the options are limited to Sblaster for samples (Sfx) and Roland Lapc-1 / mt-32 for music.

Misc:

The \proto\oldexe\orgproto.exe file is an unmodified copy of the games .exe file.  If there's ever another patch released, this file may or may not be needed to update.

When you go to leave stardock the game will ask a question.  Use the mouse to select a few random letters, LClick on the "Enter" key, and the game will begin. 

If your machine freezes after DblClicking on PROTO (or typing it in if you are playing in DOS), reboot your computer.  Then edit TSAGE.CFG in Notepad.  At the bottom of the file, add the line; SOUND_DETECT = OFF (this should all be typed in caps).
