                     ANSWERS TO COMMON QUESTIONS


QUESTION:  I get the message "EGA / VGA Monitor required." when I  try
           to run Chinese Checkers.  What I do?

ANSWER:    Your IBM compatible PC doesn't have an EGA or VGA  monitor.
           If you want to run Chinese Checkers, you will have to go to
           a  computer store to see it run.  Maybe you'll decide  that
           it's time to get a new computer!


QUESTION:  Can I run Chinese Checkers from a floppy drive?

ANSWER:    Yes, by entering the command CHINESE, but the game will run
           MUCH slower than it would on a hard drive.


QUESTION:  How do I install Chinese Checkers to my hard drive?

ANSWER:    None of our software is copy protected so the software  can
           be  easily  copied to your hard drive using the  MKDIR  and
           COPY  commands.  If  you  are  unfamiliar  with  these  DOS
           commands,  we have provided a simple  installation  routine
           for less experienced users:
             1.  Insert the diskette into the floppy drive you want to
                 install from.
             2.  Type A: (or B:) then press [Enter].
             3.  Type INSTALL, then press [Enter]. (Type INSTALL D: if
                 you want to install to your D: Drive)
             4.  Installation   to   your  hard   drive   will   begin
                 automatically.


QUESTION:  My  mouse  works in Windows, why doesn't it  work  in  your
           software?

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
           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  512000 bytes free, a program loaded in  your
           CONFIG.SYS  or  AUTOEXEC.BAT  file is  taking  up   memory.
           Locate a knowledgeable person and ask  him/her to help  you
           get  these programs out of your  memory. If you have a  286
           or 386 computer and 1  megabyte of memory or more, you  can
           free additional memory by upgrading to DOS 5.0.


QUESTION:  I  don't understand what "Shareware" is.  Why do I have  to
           order Chinese Checkers if I already have a copy of it?

ANSWER:    Because  you  don't a license to run it.   At  the  opening
           screen  of Chinese Checkers press the F1 key.   A  detailed
           explanation  will  appear for you there.   After  you  have
           pressed the F1 key, you can press the F1 key again to print
           an order form.
