A.  SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS

WISDOM OF THE AGES for Windows will work with any IBM or
compatible PC running Windows 3.1 or higher with a VGA graphics
card and hard disk drive with about 6.6 megabytes of free disk
space.  (An extra 1.5 megabytes is temporarily needed for
installation.)


B.  INSTALLATION OVERVIEW

Before you can use WISDOM OF THE AGES for Windows you have to run the SETUP
program from Windows' Program Manager so it will work properly on your
computer.  YOU CANNOT JUST COPY THE FILES TO A DIRECTORY ON YOUR HARD DISK.
WIS_PAK.EXE is a self extracting archive.  The SETUP program will expand 
it; put files in their correct places; and optionally create a Windows 
Program Group.


C.  INSTALLATION

The installation process is started by running SETUP.  Since
SETUP is a Windows application, you must start Windows, then
select Files|Run from Program Manager's menu.  In the provided
text box type A:\SETUP and press <Enter>.  *

SETUP assumes you will install to C:\Wisdom21.  You will be given
the opportunity to change this assumption.  SETUP will also ask
your permission to create a WISDOM Program Group and populate it
with group files.  Unless you'd prefer to do this yourself, we'd
suggest you answer "Yes."  **

The entire SETUP procedure takes about four minutes.  Much of that time will
be spent unpacking compressed files.  When SETUP is done, there will be 
about a six second delay when nothing seems to be happening, and then 
WISDOM OF THE AGES will start to run. 


*	Replace "A:\" with "B:\" if you are installing from
	drive B, or the path name of the source directory if you 
        copied the distribution files to your hard disk.

**	Please wait three seconds before answering "Yes."
	This dialog will briefly flash on the screen before the
	files have been unpacked.  Most 486 owners will barely
	notice it.  Some 386 owners, with quick reflexes, have
	managed to answer "Yes" before the files have been
	unpacked.  If you wait three seconds, you're sure to
	answer "Yes" at the right time.
