                 LAST MINUTE NOTES ON TASK FORCE 1942

1. The install program crashes on some machines with unusual
hardware combinations.  We try to auto-detect sound cards during
the Hardware Configuration portion of the install, and this
code will not handle all combinations of peripheral cards.  Rather
than remove the feature, we allow the user to bypass the auto-
detect feature by running the install program as follows:

"INSTALL -S"

2. ATTENTION: for those players who want to get into a battle with the
minimum of trouble, and want an easy scenario to practice gunnery
and torpedo firing:  we have a saved game ready to load for you.
Just load the "A Time to Live and a Time to Die" game.  This will put
you in a Japanese destroyer against some defenseless American
transports.

There are also a number of other saved games that our play-testers
put together that might interesting to you.
