Ringstones
----------
Ringstones is shareware. Use Ringstones for 10 days. If you like the game and want

Installation
------------
All Ringstone files must be in the same directory on your hard drive. I recommend
that you create a directory for the files. The files are:
Ringstns.EXE
Ringstn0.MID
Ringstn1.MID
Ringstn2.MID
Ringstn2.WAV
Ringstn3.MID
Ringstn4.MID
Ringstns.HLP
When you run Ringstones, the file Ringstns.INI will be created in the working
directory.
1) From Windows, highlight the group to which you want to add Ringstones
(e.g. Games).
2) Select File|New to create an Item.
3) Either enter the full pathname, or use Browse to select RINGSTNS.EXE.
4) Set the Working Directory to be the same as where you have put the
Ringstone files.
NOTE: If you do not set the working directory, Ringstones may not be able to
find the WAV files.
5) Click OK.
You are now ready to play Ringstones. The online Help contains complete
instructions on How to Play.

Sound
-----
On start up, Ringstones will check your system for MIDI and WAV sound
compatibility. If you do not have either capability on your system,
Ringstones will display an applicable error message and will then disable
the sound and/or Music.
NOTE: You must have a valid Windows sound driver installed in order for
Ringstones to play sound. Consult your windows manual for more information on
installing drivers. Also check any documentation which came with your sound
card.
Graphics
--------
Your graphics card must be able to support a 256 colour palette.
NOTE: If you have an ATI Graphic card with Mach Utilities, use the FlexDesk
control panel (Advanced settings) to ensure that the 256 colour palette is
turned on. You may still use Ringstones with the palette off, but the colour
quality will be reduced.
