Setup
=====
Before you can start Vinyl Goddess From Mars, you must run SETUP in order to 
configure your sound card and game control device.  To start the SETUP 
program:
  o Switch to the drive and directory that contains the GODDESS.EXE file.  
    For example:
      C:
      CD \VINYL

  o Type SETUP.

  ***NOTE: The SETUP program only needs to be run the first time you play, or 
           any time that you want to CHANGE your configuration.

Starting The Game
=================

  o Starting from MS-DOS
    After you've setup your sound card and chosen a game control device,
    you're ready to run the game.  Type GODDESS.

  o Starting from WINDOWS
    We do not recommend that you run this game from Windows.  However, if you
    really have to, use the GODDESS.PIF to launch the application.  While
    playing under Windows, you may notice the scrolling flick from time to
    time.
