Troubleshooting
Lockups
If Star Trek - Deep Space Nine: The Fallen locks up or crashes when you run it, then a list of "Safe Mode" options will appear the next time you run it. This mode is similar to Windows 95's Safe Mode. It runs with sound, DirectDraw, and 3D hardware support disabled. This way, you can modify your options that may be causing problems, then run the game again.
Crashes
If Star Trek - Deep Space Nine: The Fallen stops with a "Ran out of virtual memory" message, you need to free up more hard disk space on your primary drive (C:) in order to play. Star Trek - Deep Space Nine: The Fallen's large levels and rich textures take up a lot of virtual memory. We recommend having 150 megabytes of free hard disk space for running the game, and 300 megabytes or more of free hard disk space for the editor.
Direct3D issues
Some video cards ship with drivers which do not support Star Trek - Deep Space Nine: The Fallen properly. If you experience any of the following problems, your Direct3D driver may need updating:
•	Crashes when starting up. 
•	Crashes when changing video resolutions. 
•	Corrupted textures: garbage pixels appearing on surfaces; unexpected bright flashy colors on the screen; incorrect textures on surfaces. 
•	Unusually slower performance. 
If you have any of these problems, please visit our DS9 - The Fallen Website on the web.

Control issues
Some PC keyboards can't recognize certain combinations of 3 or more simultaneously pressed keys.
Performance
Memory
Star Trek - Deep Space Nine: The Fallen's performance is highly dependent on the amount of RAM you have in your machine, and the amount of memory that is available. Machines with less memory will access their hard disk more frequently to load data, which causes sporadic pauses in gameplay. Thus, if you have a 64 megabyte (or less) machine, you should make sure that you don't have other unnecessary programs loaded in memory when playing Star Trek - Deep Space Nine: The Fallen.
