If you are experiencing problems getting the program to run,or are receiving messages indicating insufficient memory,try making a boot disk. You can make a boot disk by running the TIE Fighter install program and selecting "Make A Boot Disk" from the menu. Follow the on - screen instrucions to create the boot disk. Once the boot disk has been created,insert the disk in drive A and reboot the machine. NOTE: The boot disk must be created and used from your drive A. Also if you are already using a boot disk from a previous Lucas Arts game such as "Sam & Max" or "Rebel Assault" you must still make a new boot disk the old ones will not work. Main And Expanded Memory ------------------------ If your computer has expanded memory the simulation will automatically use it. The software that comes with the expanded memory must conform to the Expnaded Memory Specifications (EMS) 3.2. With expnaded memory, you`ll have faster access to cockpit views, along with more graphic detail. The more available expanded memory, the better the simulation will run. 582k of main memory (560k required) and 2500k of expanded memory (896k required) is highly recommended as the program wont have to search the disk for views or graphics. If you loaded any memory resident programs or allocated memory to disk caches you must be able to free up additional memory by disabling them. Music during the simulation is only availbale using expanded memory. NOTE: the Sound Blaster AWE-32 driver users almost 10k more memory than other drivers. If you do not have enought memory to use the simulation with this driver, try making a boot disk or choosing the Sound Blaster 16 driver with 4-OP FM music. Expanded memory should not be confused with extended memory.Any extended memory can be converted to expanded memory with a commercially available memory manager program. DOS includes EMM 386 memory manager.
