Welcome to Software of the Month Club!
TROUBLE-SHOOTING
If you encounter problems while launching programs, quitting the START
program may solve your problem. Run the program from DOS without the START
program will usually remedy most problems. This is especially true when
trying to launch game programs.
Some programs will try to write back to the CD-ROM. Because the CD-ROM is
READ ONLY, you may have to copy the program to your local hard disk prior to
use.
Windows 95
If you are using Windows 95 you can not us the START.EXE program. You
will need to go to my computer and select your CD-ROM drive. Then run
the programs from the folders. For a total list of the programs on the
CD-ROM goto the GUIDES folder and double click on the proper months icon.
You can also got to the folder of the programs that interest you and there
will be a list of the programs that are only in that area. Next, ones you
are in the folder of the program you want see there will be a file named
THECLUB.TXT see this file for the executable file and what file has the
documentation.
