Sound card notes
The first time you use HOORAY for MATHS the Sound Setup utility (SSETUP)
will run automatically. This configures the program to run with your sound
hardware/software. Please note the following points regarding sound card
support:
1 Your card may be compatible with more than one of the listed cards. The
most powerfully compatible card will normally be selected automatically.
2 Should SSETUP fail to identify a suitable card, make your selection
manually. If you have a sound card which is not listed, select a
compatible one.
3 Cards which support both digitized effects and synthesized music can
sometimes cause a computer to "slow down" when both features are in
simultaneous use. If this is a problem, switch SOUND (in the Parent
/Teacher Section) to either MUSIC only or FX ONLY.
Page 5
^PF
4 If you change your sound card you will have to use SSETUP again. It can
be accessed via File Manager in Windows or by typing SSETUP at the
CD-ROM drive DOS prompt.
5 Users of the Gravis Ultrasound card must load the Sound Blaster
emulation utility (SBOS) before setting up HOORAY FOR MATHS or running the

About HOORAY for MATHS
The story so far ...
Henrietta and Hopeless Henry are getting married in the morning. But all
is not well. That mischievous bird, John the Parrot, appears at the last
moment and is determined to create havoc. He steals the groom's wedding
clothes and kidnaps the groom himself. If Henry isn't rescued in time,
John will cover him in cold custard!
You must help Henrietta collect Henry's coat, hat, shirt and trousers,
otherwise the wedding will be cancelled!
Can you get Henry to the church on time?
Features
HOORAY for MATHS provides varied and stimulating practice in addition,
subtraction, multiplication and division over a wide range of ability
levels. An endless supply of computer generated problems at all levels
ensures boredom-free practice.
A major feature is the Parent/Teacher Section. This ensures the most
appropriate starting level for any user. Results can be recorded, viewed
and printed. To obtain satisfactory results from this program, it is
essential that you know how to use the Parent/Teacher Section. Use the
mouse to access it or press <P> at the Control Screen. On-screen help is
available at all times by selecting the mouth button or by pressing <F1>.
The program has eight levels of difficulty. These are selected by the
student but, in addition, you can modify each level to a LOW, MEDIUM or
HIGH setting in the Parent/Teacher Section. A separate High Score Table is
provided for each of these settings.
You can concentrate on all or any of the four arithmetical functions alone
or in various combinations by selecting QUESTIONS ON once the Parent
/Teacher Section has been accessed. You may also practise multiplication
tables. The computer monitors progress and automatically adjusts the level
of challenge upward after each set of exercises has been successfully
completed. A Certificate of Merit appears on screen when the final set
(level 8) is completed. This Certificate can be printed - see
Troubleshooting (page 14) if you have any problems.
An adjustable timer (very slow to very fast) encourages quick thinking.
However, adequate time must be allowed and questions should not be made too
difficult. Do not expect a student to tackle without help questions well
beyond his or her current skill level.
Page 7
^PF
A comprehensive results monitoring facility may be switched on or off to
enable a student's progress to be recorded. It can also be used to save
and check the work done by up to ten different students after each has
completed a set of exercises. Select <Ctrl-P> to print results for future
reference.
Three separate High Score Tables (LOW, MEDIUM and HIGH) enable other
members of the family, friends or colleagues to join in the challenge. This
undoubtedly adds to the fun and excitement. With three such tables,
students compete only with their broad peer group.
With a sound card supported by LANDER SOFTWARE, you will not only enjoy,
but also benefit from a full range of sound effects, high quality speech
and music. These additions enhance the program's effectiveness enormously.
Indeed, research has shown that certain types of music can strongly
influence a student's learning process. Every piece has been carefully
selected and arranged for maximum effect.
NB On-screen help for both teachers and students is always available.
Select the mouth button (where available) or HELP with your mouse or
press <F1> and follow on-screen instructions. Context relevant help is
also available by clicking on the required option with the right mouse
button.

Screen. You can now view and alter a wide range of parameters. Select
HELP or press <F1> for detailed help at any stage. If ACCESS is set to
LIMITED, you will have to press <Ctrl-T> to enter the Parent/Teacher
Section.
3 Return to the Control Screen by selecting BACK or pressing <Esc>, then
select START or press <S> to go to the screen which outlines your task
and asks for your name.
4 Type your name and press <Enter>.
5 Select starting level. Type a number from 1 (easy) to 8 (difficult).
6 Select OK or press <Enter> and the first of four different game screens
will appear. Each screen displays a symbol (+ - x ≈). This shows which
type of exercise is on that screen.
7 To answer each question, type the answer followed by <Enter>. Don't
worry if you get it wrong. The question will be repeated. After three
incorrect attempts, the correct answer is always given. The next
question appears automatically after each correct answer.
8 Your session finishes either when you complete all exercises correctly
(each within the time limit set), or when John the Parrot covers Henry
in custard.
9 If you have scored highly enough, your name and score will appear on the
appropriate High Score Table. If you don't manage to finish in time,
you can start again at the same or a less difficult level.

National Curriculum
The National Curriculum applies to England & Wales only. However,
Scotland, Ireland and many other countries have broadly similar standards
and requirements.
The following table shows the approximate relationship between National
Curriculum Attainment Levels, age and the difficulty of questions set by
the program.
The LOW, MEDIUM and HIGH settings are determined by the tutor via the
Parent/Teacher Section (see page 7).
The figures shown in the end column refer to the levels chosen by the
student.
Use pen and paper and/or calculator in accordance with National Curriculum
guidelines.
When the program is used with small groups (children and/or adults) it
becomes a focal point for animated debate. This helps develop essential
social skills such as communication, understanding and co-operation. The
use of reference books should be encouraged.

Useful hints and educational advice
Once you have become familiar with the many, powerful features of this
program, you can quickly and easily customise it for any student. In the
meantime, the following should help you obtain as much benefit as possible
with the least possible effort.
1 When using the program with younger children, it is almost certain that
they will only be able to cope with addition (or perhaps addition and
subtraction) at a very basic level. Via the Parent/Teacher Section (see
page 7), make sure you set QUESTIONS ON to ADDITION or ADD & SUB.
Set QUESTION DIFFICULTY to LOW or MEDIUM and TIME ALLOWED to as high a
setting as required.
2 It is better to allow too much time initially than too little.
Typically, a TIME ALLOWED setting of about 4 is usually OK. Alter up or
down as required.
3 HOORAY for MATHS has only four main game screens. This is deliberate as
the excitement is derived (after initial enthusiasm) from the
mathematical tasks, NOT from pretty pictures! Too many different game
screens would, we believe, simply distract younger students especially.
If the fun doesn't seem to be there, reduce the time allowed and raise
the level of challenge. You'll be amazed at the difference this can
make.
4 Use the TABLES facility to practise multiplication tables. By setting
the highest and lowest numbers, you can concentrate precisely on what
you want.
5 Use the three High Score Tables sensibly. Less able and younger
students should use the program (at least initially) with a LOW setting.
In this way, not only will more advanced students using MEDIUM or HIGH
be challenged with tougher problems, but their results will appear on a
different High Score Table from their less advanced colleagues. This
kind of peer group competition is generally preferable, particularly in
an educational situation.
6 At the higher settings, the use of a calculator may be acceptable. Make
sure adequate time is allowed.
7 Children often use HOORAY for MATHS in groups. One calculates the
answers, a second enters them, and a third checks everything is running
smoothly (including the time). Try it. You'll be pleasantly surprised
at how efficient they can be.
8 Print results at regular intervals. This gives you accurate records for
future reference. But ensure your computer calendar is set correctly.
Page 12
^PF
9 You can control what sounds (if any) you want the program to generate.
Select SOUND in the Parent/Teacher Section and choose from ALL, FX ONLY
(sound effects only), MUSIC ONLY and NONE (no sound effects, music or
speech).
10 If you are using a sound card, you may find that the sound disturbs
others. Overcome this problem by using inexpensive earphones instead of
loudspeakers. Two students can still work together using two sets of
earphones and a suitable adaptor.
11 In short, use the program in whatever way you find best. Don't be
afraid to experiment. It's lots of fun and it really does work!
Page 13
^PF
Troubleshooting
When a program fails to load or run properly, there can be many reasons for
this. Before contacting our Customer Services Department, please consider
the following:
Problem
When running HOORAY for MATHS in DOS, you type the correct command to start
the program, but get the message "bad command or file name".
Solution
You are probably not on the correct drive. Before typing GO to start
HOORAY for MATHS, make sure you are at the CD-ROM drive DOS prompt.
Alternatively, see page 5 to set the program up to run in Windows.
Problem
SSETUP does not automatically detect your sound card.
Solution
SSETUP checks to see whether one of a number of sound cards is installed.
It does this by attempting to initialise the card. To do this it has to
make assumptions about the sound card settings (IRQ, I/O Address and DMA
channel). The assumptions it makes are that the settings are the factory
defaults. If the factory defaults have been changed, SSETUP will not be
able to detect the card. To overcome this you will need to establish the
actual settings of your card. Then select your card (or a compatible one)
from the SSETUP menu and enter the correct settings in the appropriate
boxes. The card should now test OK and the settings can be saved to disk.
Problem
Your sound card has been set up correctly but no speech or music is heard.
Solution 1
Check that all possible volume controls are at an audible setting. There
are potentially four different controls that can affect the volume: volume
control on the speakers; volume control on the sound card; DOS mixer
utility; Windows mixer utility. If the volume is set to zero on any of
these, no sound will be heard.
Solution 2
Sound is switched to OFF in the Parent/Teacher Section. This can be
rectified by switching sound to ALL. If this is not subsequently saved as
a default, when the program is reloaded it will again be silent.
Solution 3
Music and sound effects need memory to be played. If your free
conventional memory is low, the first thing to be lost will be the sound.
To rectify this problem, ensure you have at least the minimum specified
amount of free conventional RAM.
Solution 4
Check that the card has actually been set up correctly. Start the program
with the /D option (see page 18) which will show whether the music and
speech drivers have been initialised successfully. If they haven't, run
SSETUP again (see page 5).
Page 14
^PF
Problem
The program crashes during loading.
Solution 1
Such problems are normally due to a shortage of conventional RAM. To
correct this problem, ensure you have at least the minimum specified amount
of free conventional RAM.
Solution 2
Some essential files could be missing. This may have been caused by an
incomplete installation. The installation program will not proceed if
there is not enough space to install all the files. However DOS does not
always give an accurate figure for the amount of free space on a hard disk.
This could mean that only some files are loaded. To check if this is the
case, delete the program from the hard disk and reinstall. Watch for any
error messages. If a "disk full" error occurs, some free space on the hard
drive will have to be created by removing other software.
Problem
When running a program from Windows, you see a message saying that the DMA
buffer size is too small.
Solution
Increase the DMABUFFERSIZE to 64. This will ensure that all DOS programs
that play digital samples will have sufficient buffer space to run in
Windows. This is normally done automatically during SETUP.
Problem
When running the program through Windows the message "Warning, program has
violated system integrity ..." appears.
Solution
If one of the "errors that should never occur" (see page 18) happens while
Windows is running the above message will appear. Treat this message in
the same way as you would an error of this type.
Problem
Strange characters appear on the paper when results are printed.
Solution
HOORAY for MATHS supports the three most common printers. Check that the
printer choice displayed in the Parent/Teacher section matches your
printer. Even if your printer is not one of those listed, it will almost
certainly be able to emulate one. Your printer manual should list the
emulations available and give instructions on how to switch to the correct
mode.
Page 15
^PF
Problem
The Certificate of Merit does not print properly or at all.
Solution
Hooray for Maths supports directly three of the most commmon printer types.
Even if you do not have one of these printers, it is very likely your
printer will be compatible with one of them. This is fine for most text
applications (like printing results), but problems can arise when printing
a graphic. One solution is to use the Save feature on the Certificate
screen. This will save a copy of your certificate on your hard disk.
HOORAY for MATHS will tell you the name of the file and where it is stored
(the file will be in the format 'PCX'). You can then load this file into
any graphics package (and most word processors) from where you should be
able to print it successfully.
Error Codes
Normally when something goes wrong, the program will give you a message
telling you what has happened. In some cases however, only an error code
number will be given. The most common are as follows:
2 File not found
The program cannot locate a file that it needs to be able to run. Check
that the program has been installed properly (see The program crashes
during loading, Solution 2 above).
3 Path not found
This error should not normally occur but could surface on networks
configured in a certain way. The best solution here would be to install the
program on the user's network station as opposed to the network server.
But remember, you can only use HOORAY for MATHS on a network if you have
the appropriate Lander multi-user licence.
4 Too many open files
This error will occur if the FILES=XX command is missing from your
CONFIG.SYS file or the number of files (XX) is less than 20. To rectify
this problem, add to/amend the CONFIG.SYS file.
5 File access denied
This error should not normally occur but could surface on networks
configured in a certain way. The best solution here would be to install the
program on the user's network station as opposed to the network server.
But remember, you can only use HOORAY for MATHS on a network if you have
the appropriate Lander multi-user licence. The only other possible cause
is if the attribute of the files has been changed to READ only. This error
will then be generated when the program tries to update the result file or
high score table etc.
Page 16
^PF
100 Disk read error
There is a problem with your hard drive. Try to fix this using a disk
repair program such as Norton Disk Doctor, CHKDSK (available with all
versions of DOS) or Scandisk (available with DOS 6 and later). When the
errors have been removed, the program should be reinstalled.
101 Disk write error
Your hard disk is full. Space should be freed by removing unwanted
programs. Alternatively, purchase a larger hard disk.
150 Disk is write-protected
Should not occur on a hard disk but some Virus protection software can make
DOS think that the hard disk is write-protected. If this occurs, switch
off the relevant feature of the Virus software.
152 Drive not ready
Will normally occur if the CD is removed while the program is in use.
Solution - don't do it!
154-158, 161 Various disk-based errors
If any of these appear it would suggest that there is a hardware problem
with your hard disk or hard disk controller.
159,160 Various printer errors
These errors can appear if the printer is out of paper, off line, or not
switched on.
Any negative number
Negative error numbers usually appear due to a shortage of conventional
RAM. If the problem persists when sufficient conventional RAM is
available, check that the program has been installed properly.
Page 17
^PF
Errors that should not occur [1,6,12,15,16,17,102..106,151,153, 200-207]
If one of these error numbers appears, a "glitch" has occurred. The error
should not appear again but if it does, it would suggest a hardware fault
inside the computer.
NB When the program loads it will try automatically to detect various
features available on your computer. If the program does not find a
feature which it requires, it will not run. On certain computers however,
the program may not be able to detect a given feature, even although it is
present. If the program does not work on your computer, try starting it in
one of the ways detailed below:
type HH /S then press <Enter> to bypass sound checking (program will
be silent)
type HH /T then press <Enter> to bypass music driver loading (program
will play without music)
type HH /U then press <Enter> to bypass speech driver loading
(program will play without digital speech)
type HH /V then press <Enter> to bypass video display checking type
HH /P then press <Enter> to bypass processor checking
If after making these checks you are still having difficulty, please contact
our Customer Service Department. You will receive a prompt and helpful
response. CD-ROMs which have become corrupt for any reason whatsoever
within one month of purchase will be replaced free of charge.
NB This replacement service is only available to Registered Users, so
please make sure you complete and return your registration card if you have
not already done so.

Good practice ... some suggestions
Our software is supplied on disks which are extremely reliable. In certain
circumstances however, they may be affected by static electricity and stray
magnetic fields. Keep disks well away from magnets and devices which
contain them (such as electric motors and loudspeakers). When not in use,
store disks in a protective box. Do not leave them lying about.
The program runs with the following pre-set defaults, all of which can be
altered via the Parent/Teacher Section:
SOUND: ALL QUESTIONS ON: ALL
TABLE TO PRACTISE: 12 TABLES MAXIMUM: 10
QUESTION DIFFICULTY: MED TIME ALLOWED: 4
RECORD RESULTS: YES ACCESS TO THIS SECTION: FULL
PRINTER: EPSON DOT-MATRIX
For full details of these and other available settings, select HELP in the
Parent/Teacher Section
