MOD4WIN 2.40 Beta
THERE IS NO VERSION FOR SALE YET!
(But registered users can get a
free update but only via eMail)
!!!IMPORTANT!!! for Windows 3.1x USERS:
---------------------------------------
To get more time in Windows 3.1x you must
copy the TRLPLAY.386 into your WINDOWS\SYSTEM
directory and add the device=trlplay.386 line
to the [386enh] section of your SYSTEM.INI!
The driver does do nothing but stealing 8 kB
RAM. But MOD4WIN can use it as safe and
reliable timer ;)
WINDOWS 95 Users! Please copy the TRLPLAY.VxD
to your WINDOWS\SYSTEM directory!
