   future use by the game.

3) TROUBLE SHOOTING

   NOT ENOUGH MEMORY!
   If you are really low on memory Try:
        hurl4meg<enter>
   While you may have the 4Mb needed to run the game is it actually free?
   Some programs like SMARTDRV.EXE can take 2Mb or more.  Remove it from
   you config.sys and reboot.

   MS DOS 6.0 contains MEMMAKER which can help you configure your system
   better.


   HEY, IT CRASHED!
   Boot with a minimum configuration to free up as much memory as possible.
   Your config file should look something like this:
      FILES=20
      BUFFERS=20
      DEVICE=C:\DOS\HIMEM.SYS
      DOS=HIGH


   THE SOUND DOESN'T WORK!
   If you have a SoundBlaster compatible card select the SoundBlaster
   clone driver and try again.  Otherwise you can run H.U.R.L without
   sound by starting it as follows:
      hurl -s<enter>
