Note: In this directory, we have included a DOS executable of
Behind the Magic that was created as part of the development
process.
As Behind the Magic requires Windows 95, this version has not
gone through our normal test procedures and we do not officially
support it. In fact, our technical support personnel have not
been trained to deal with it and cannot answer questions
regarding the DOS version.
However, with that said, it's provided as a "just in case"
option for the instance or two in which it might help where the
Windows executable cannot be run.
Notes about the DOS version:
SOUND
Supports Soundblaster only. You should set a BLASTER
environment variable to the correct settings of your sound
card. Furthermore, sound support is only 8-bit, so it will
be noisier on a 16-bit sound card compared to the Windows95
version.
VIDEO
Requires a video card with a 16-bit VESA-compatible mode.
If your card does not have a VESA-compatible driver, it will
not work.
PRINT
Screen printing is not implemented.
SETTING
Control panel settings and trivia scores do not get saved
between sessions.
SPEED
The DOS version is known to be noticeably slower than the
Windows equivalent. This will be particularly noticeable
on a 133 MHz machine.
RUNNING
You can run the DOS version from a DOS prompt by going to the
\NOSUPORT directory of this CD and typing:
RUNBTM
