The Hound of the Baskervilles IBM-PC CD-ROM Version
===================================================

Hound of the Baskerville is a Multimedia Murder mystery.
You can recontruct the case, allow it to unravel before you, or try
and discover who did it yourself.

This product requires the following:

CD-ROM Drive
MSCDEX CD-ROM Extensions Version 2.11 or later
640K Base RAM, with at least 450K available
Register Compatible VGA Card with at least 256K RAM

This product will utililse the following:

2 or 3 Button Mouse (Driver must be loaded before starting)
AdLib or Soundblaster audio card (or compatible)

To take full advantage of the multimedia effect of this product, you need a
CD-ROM drive with audio playing capability connected to suitable speakers.


If you have a mouse, the left mouse button will have the same effect as
"Button A" in the instructions, if you point to an item and press the
left mouse button that item will be displayed or acted upon.  The right
mouse button has the same effect as "Button B" and will take you back to
a previous screen.

Moving the mouse will move the pointer on the screen.

If you do not have a mouse, the pointer can be moved by the arrow keys and the
keys on the numeric keypad.  The arrow keys will move the pointer in the
required direction, and the keys on the keypad will allow you to move both
straight and diagonally.

If you are without a mouse, the '+' key on the keypad will act as "Button A"
and the '-' key on the keypad will act as "Button B".

Other keyboard equivalents for "Button A" are:

Key 'A'
Key 'F1'

Other keyboard equivalents for "Button B" are:

Key 'B'
Key 'F2'

Whilst using the product, the normal "Ctrl-Alt-Del" function will not be
active.  If you wish to quit from the product type "Ctrl-ESC"

If the product will not load, this will probably be because there is not
enough free memory available in your system to run it.  You should try removing
unnecessary device drivers and "BUFFERS=" lines from your CONFIG.SYS, and
remove any lines from your AUTOEXEC.BAT file that load in resident software

We would like to express our thanks to the Sysops of "Sounds Digital" BBS
on 0842-762136 for their help with the music for this product.

Please enjoy The Hound of the Baskervilles!
