Installing VideoCraft GIF Animator:
===================================

In the \16bit directory, you will find "setup16.exe" which will install
VideoCraft GIF Animator (16-bit version) for Windows 3.1

In the \32bit directory, you will find "setup32.exe" which will install
VideoCraft GIF Animator (32-bit version) for Windows 95 or Windows NT.

Problems Installing VideoCraft GIF Animator:
===========================================
If you have difficulties with using either setup program, please check 
the following:

1. Make sure you have a TEMP directory specified in your autoexec.bat
file. (It would appear in autoexec.bat as "TEMP=C:\TEMP" or similar)

2. Remove as many files as you can from the TEMP directory and run the
install again.

3. Make sure you have enough free disk space. (At least 10 MB free)

4. Close any programs running in Windows that may be interfering with 
the setup program.

5. "Missing files (_SETUP.DLL, _ISRES.DLL, _SETUP.LIB, etc.)":
      This message appears when there are too many files in your temp
      directory. Try cleaning out your temp directory and running the
      install again.

6. Make sure your computer is able to read the CD ROM without errors.
   If the CD disk is scratched, or if your CD ROM driver software is
   in error, then this can cause various problems when trying to read
   files from the CD ROM. Try testing this CD ROM in another computer.

7. If all else fails, try restarting the computer, then run the 
VideoCraft setup program again. The weirdness may dissappear by then.

Problems Starting VideoCraft
============================

"Missing File AVIFILE.DLL": This message appears if you are running
Windows 3.1 and did not install Microsoft's Video for Windows drivers,
which are needed by VideoCraft. You can download these drivers from
Microsoft at ftp://ftp.microsoft.com/Softlib/MSLFILES/WV1160.EXE 
or find more info online at http://www.andatech.com/pmorph2/vfw_info.html 

"Missing File MFC30.DLL": This message appears if you try to start
VideoCraft in Windows NT without the MFC helper files installed.
The 32-bit VideoCraft setup program will install these files,
but another program may have removed them. Run the "setup32.exe" again.

VideoCraft crashes immediately: If VideoCraft crashes immmediately
when you try to start the program, it is most likely that you have 
a video compresssion, such as a video capture card driver, that
conflicts with Windows. Try to uninstall or unload the conflicting
driver before starting VideoCraft.
