Version 1.3 October 1, 1994 Copyright (c) 1994, ImagiSOFT, Inc. All rights reserved. ANSWERS TO COMMON QUESTIONS QUESTION: How do I install Redhook's Revenge to my hard drive? ANSWER: We have provided a simple installation program so that you can install Redhook's Revenge to your hard drive: 1. Insert the diskette into the floppy drive. 2. Type A:INSTALL (or B:INSTALL) then press [Enter]. 3. Follow the instructions as they appear on your screen. You can install it to any directory that you want to, but for the purposes of this documentation, we assume that you will install it to C:\REDHOOK. QUESTION: I get the message "VGA monitor required." when I try to run Redhook's Revenge. I know I have a VGA monitor. What can I do? ANSWER: Some super VGA and monochrome VGA cards aren't detected by our video card checking routine. If you are confident that your monitor has a VGA mode, run Redhook's Revenge with this command: REDHOOK /M. We don't guarantee that this will fix your problem, but this command will bypass our video checking routine, and the above error will no longer appear. QUESTION: Can I run Redhook's Revenge from a floppy drive? ANSWER: Yes, by entering the command REDHOOK, but the game may run slower than it would on a hard drive. QUESTION: My mouse works in Microsoft Windows, why doesn't it work in Redhook's Revenge? ANSWER: Windows has special built-in drivers to support mice. Our software looks for a Microsoft compatible mouse driver which is loaded when you turn on your computer. A diskette should have come with your mouse which contains MOUSE.SYS, MOUSE.COM or similar files. Try placing the command DEVICE = MOUSE.SYS in your CONFIG.SYS file or the command MOUSE.COM in your AUTOEXEC.BAT file. These are the files that DOS executes when you turn on your computer, and if your mouse is Microsoft compatible, your mouse should now work. QUESTION: I get the message "Not enough memory" and my program doesn't run. What can I do? ANSWER: You need a computer with at least 640K memory to run our software. Run the CHKDSK command to make sure that you have "655360 total bytes memory". The last line tells you how many bytes your computer has free. If your computer has less than 546000 bytes free, a program loaded in your CONFIG.SYS or AUTOEXEC.BAT file is using part of your Conventional memory. DOS 6.0 and 6.2 comes with a utility called MEMMAKER which is designed to optimize your computer's memory resources. Enter the command MEMMAKER at the DOS prompt to run this program. If you don't have MEMMAKER, locate a knowledgeable person and ask him/her to help you get these programs out of conventional memory and load them "high". QUESTION: My sound card doesn't seem to work properly. I can't hear the pirates talking through my Soundblaster. ANSWER: The only pirate that actually has a voice is Blackbeard. In the shareware version he speaks only on the opening screens; in the registered version he talks everywhere. Most sound cards are Soundblaster compatible. If your sound card gives you problems, enter this command from DOS: REDHOOK /C. This will bypass the sound card initialization routine and turn off the sound. Thank you for playing Redhook's Revenge! We hope you get hours of enjoyment from our program. If you have any further questions or problems, please contact us: ImagiSOFT, Inc.
