give it to your friends.  See CHINESE.TXT for the full license agreement.


Windows Installation
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1)  To install to Windows run SETUP.EXE from your Program Manager, File manager,
    or Windows Explorer.
2)  If you install to other than the C:\CHINESE directory you may have to
    change the path in the file CHINESE.PIF.  (If you do not understand
    what this means, install it to the C:\CHINESE directory.


DOS Installation

2)  COPY A:*.* C:\CHINESE   (Copy all the files to your hard drive)
3)  DEL C:\CHINESE\S*.*     (Delete Windows installation files)
4)  DEL C:\CHINESE\_SETUP.* (Delete last Windows installation file)


Not Enough Free Conventional Memory?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Read the contents of the file MEMORY.TXT.


Mouse Doesn't Work?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Windows has a special built-in driver to detect and automatically support mice.
As a DOS application, Chinese Checkers doesn't have a built-in mouse driver
even when you run it from Windows.  Chinese Checkers looks for a Microsoft
compatible mouse driver (usually loaded when you turn on your computer), and
if it finds it, the mouse works.

A diskette with mouse driver files (usually called  MOUSE.SYS or MOUSE.COM)
should have been in the package when you bought your mouse. Try placing the
command
    DEVICE = MOUSE.SYS
in your CONFIG.SYS file or the command
    LH C:\MOUSE\MOUSE.COM
in your AUTOEXEC.BAT file.  Instructions on how to do this will be in your
mouse documentation.


VGA Monitor Required?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
You will get this message if your computer does not have a VGA monitor, or
if the VGA drivers are incompatible with our software.  If you are sure you
have a VGA, enter the command CHINESE /M  from the DOS prompt and hope for
the best.  This is a special code to bypass our monitor checking routine,
and if your computer freezes, there is no way to run Chinese Checkers from
your computer.
