INSTALLATION HELP FILE

If you had any trouble with the installation of the compressed files on your
Wizardworks program disk, please read this file!


        PROBLEM #1:  Nothing appears on my screen!  My computer seems
                     to hang up!

                     ANSWER:  Your screen saver modules require
                              that you have a VGA graphics adapter
                              card.  Our installation software and
                              most of our programs do not run with
                              anything less than a resolution of
                              640x480x16 (640 pixels in width, 480
                              pixels in height and 16 colors).


        PROBLEM #2:  I don't think that all of the files were copied
                     into the proper directories.  I cannot run the
                     program(s).

                     ANSWER:  Most Wizardworks products contain
                              compressed files (packed to save less
                              space on disk) that are uncompressed
                              during installation.  Some computers
                              with large memory caches (where disk
                              files are stored in memory to enhance
                              performance) do not copy the files to
                              disk properly.

                              If you have a disk cache (check your
                              AUTOEXEC.BAT file for SMARTDRV.EXE or
                              PC-CACHE to make sure), try disabling
                              the cache and run SETUP.EXE again.
                              Instructions on how to disable your
                              cache are provided below.

                     ALSO:    Do you have enough space on your hard
                              disk?  You need 1.6 kilobytes of free
                              disk space to install the program.




HOW TO DISABLE YOUR CACHE SOFTWARE (TEMPORARILY):

To disable your cache, you must edit the AUTOEXEC.BAT file with a text
editor (such as the editor provided with MS-DOS 5.0 or greater) or any
word processor that will produce standard ASCII files.  Before you begin,
make a quick copy of your AUTOEXEC.BAT file by typing:

                  COPY  C:\AUTOEXEC.BAT  C:\AUTOEXEC.BAC

You will use the file with the "BAC" file extension to reinstall your
original AUTOEXEC.BAT file after installation is finished.

Now, use your text editor to load the file "C:\AUTOEXEC.BAT" and find any
line which contains SMARTDRV.EXE or PC-CACHE.EXE.  When you locate the
line, type the letters "REM" and a space at the beginning of the line.
For example:

                      REM C:\WINDOWS\SMARTDRV.EXE

The REM (or "REMARK") statement instructs your computer to ignore this
line when it executes your AUTOEXEC.BAT file.

Save your new copy of AUTOEXEC.BAT to disk under its original file name 
and reboot your computer.  Try to install the program again.

After you finish the installation, reinstall your original AUTOEXEC.BAT
file by typing:
 
                  COPY  C:\AUTOEXEC.BAC  C:\AUTOEXEC.BAT

to copy the original file over the altered file.  Delete AUTOEXEC.BAC and                              
reboot your computer to reinstall the cache software.
