[A] System Requirements
-------------------------------------------------------------
The Kinetix 3D Studio Max Demo CD requires a 486/66
or faster computer, 8 megabytes of memory, a double speed
CD ROM drive, a sound card, and a video adapter capable of
displaying 800 X 600 X 256 colors.
The Kinetix 3D Studio Max Demo CD runs under

[C] Problem Resolutions
-------------------------------------------------------------
Problem: The demonstration hangs or the colors on screen
are not correct.
Solution: The 3D Studio MAX demo requires video and audio
drivers that fully support Windows 3.x, Windows 95,
and Windows NT standards. We recommend installing
the latest drivers available for your video and
audio card. If you experience problems, try running
the demonstration in 800 X 600 X 256 colors.
Please note that the demonstration requires a sound
card to operate properly.
Problem: The demonstration runs very slowly.
Solution: For optimal performance make sure your video display
is set for 800 X 600 X 256 colors. On slower machines
the demo will not run as smoothly in higher color
settings. Also, make sure to close all other
applications before running the demo.
Problem: The AVIs (animations) play slowly or skip.
Solution: This is most likely a performance issue.
1) If you are using Windows 3.x make sure you have a
dedicated, contiguous Windows swap file of at least
10 megabytes.
2) Change your display adapter to 256 colors.
3) Free up available memory in Windows by closing all
other applications before running the demo.
4) If you are running Windows 3.x, try caching your CD.
5) If none of the above suggestions seem to help, try
running the AVIs by clicking on them directly from
File Manager or Explorer and playing them with Media Player.
