                       GENERAL INFORMATION

These games can be setup to run from Windows (recommended for Windows 95
users) or to run from DOS if desired.  Windows 3.x may not be compatible
with these programs when run through a DOS window depending on how your
computer and Windows is setup.  They must be setup with either the
DOSSETUP.EXE or windows SETUP.EXE program provided.

                          WINDOWS SETUP

Use the windows RUN menu (windows 3.x) or the Add/Remove Programs feature
(windows 95) to set these programs up for use in windows.  Note: if you
use the CD-ROM to run these programs, the Icon for Ultimate CD-ROM
will not show in the program group if the CD-ROM is not in the drive when
windows boots after the initial installation. An ICON is provided in the
directory that you specify for the game data for your use if you so desire.

                            DOS SETUP

The Ultimate CD-ROM must be setup with the DOSSETUP.EXE program provided
with this CD-ROM.  To run DOSSETUP.EXE, insure your CD-ROM drive is the
active drive and your Ultimate CD-ROM disk is in the drive.  Type 
"DOSSETUP" and push Enter to run the program.  NOTE: the dos program
"XCOPY" must be in your path to use the "Install games to your Hard
Drive option".

                     WINDOWS AND DOS SETUP OPTIONS

        Option:  Play games from the CD-ROM.  This option will require 
approximately 200K of hard disk space to store game data files as they
are produced during game play.  Most 2x CD-ROMs or faster should provide
adequate performance for these games.  Once setup, this option REQUIRES
the Ultimate CD-ROM be in your CD drive.

        (Windows use)..  Double click on the Ultimate Games icon to
        start the menu program for these games.

        (DOS use)..  Switch to your CD drive.  If these games reside
        in their own directory on the CD-ROM, you will need to change
        to that directory.  Type "ULT" and press enter to run the menu
        program.  From the menu you will be able to select the game of
        your choice or read the game manual (BOOK) for each game.

        Option:  Install games to your Hard Drive.  These games can 
be installed to your hard drive if you have approximately 20 mega bytes 
of hard disk space to dedicate to these games.  Hard disk installation 
will provide the best game performance since many of these games require 
large amounts of data to be loaded during game play.  Some CD-ROM drives 
may provide marginal data transfer rates that could detract from game 
performance.  All game files as well as the menu program will be copied 
to your hard drive if this option is selected.  NOTE:  The dos program
"XCOPY" must be in your path to use this option.

        (Windows use)..  Double click on the Ultimate Games icon to
        start the menu program for these games.

        (DOS use)..  Switch to the drive to which you have installed these
        games.  Change to the directory "ACCIDENT" on that drive then
        type "ULT" and press enter to run the menu program. From the
        menu you will be able to select the game of your choice or
        read the game manual (BOOK) for each game.
