Bugs

1)	Music goes tuud-z-tuud-z-tuud-z..., this is MCI Midas music driver bug, and we (PS) can't fix it. If you have another MCI driver to play mods, use it. If you don't, just press Next button to fix that. Restarting windows may help too.


Install

1) Go to the control panel / drivers / add / ok / to the XMedia directory / ok / and MCI Midas. / OK. That was example of installing MCI Midas music driver, without it you won't hear any music.
