IMPORTANT!! IMPORTANT!! ESSENTIAL!! READ THIS!! DO NOT SKIP!!
TO INSTALL:
1) If you have just downloaded the shareware version of MYTHIC
BEARS 1, unzip the archive to a directory of choice. Start Windows,
if you have not done so already, and open File Manager. Choose
Run ... and type in the correct path statement for install.exe.
Click on OK and the short installation process will begin. You
can also open the directory and file display for the directory of
choice and double click on install.exe to start the installation.
2) If you have the registered version on 3 1/2" floppies, put
disk 1 into the small floppy drive which is either drive A
or B depending upon your configuration. Open File Manager and
select Run. Type A:\install or B:\install and click OK. The
installation dialogs are self explanatory and involve only a
few very simple decisions. You may also open the directory and
file display for your floppy drive and double click upon
install.exe to begin the installation procedure.
3) THIS SCREEN SAVER INSTALLS ITSELF INTO THE DESKTOP ITEM OF THE
WINDOWS CONTROL PANEL. It does not make a program group upon
installation. MAKE CERTAIN YOUR MONITOR IS SET TO 256 COLOR
PALETTE or the images will appear degraded and pixelated.
Open the Control Panel and double click upon Desktop. Activate the
screen saver and set its timing through the Screen Saver dialog within
the Desktop item. You may preview it with Test and set an optional
password protection with Setup.
4) YOU MUST READ README.TXT which is displayed within the Windows
Notepad upon the completion of a successful installation. DO
NOT SKIP! READ THIS TEXT FILE!! And print it out for further reference:
it contains a wealth of information. Readme.txt contains essential
information about configuring the screen saver through Desktop in
the Windows Control Panel; registration form; license
agreement; file list etc. All of this information also exists as
separate text files on disk 3 but these files do not install onto
your hard drive.
IMPORTANT!! IF YOU ARE A REGISTERED USER, READ THIS!!
5) THE ANTHROPOLOGY TEXT EXPLAINING THE AINU BEAR RITUAL DOES NOT
INSTALL ONTO YOUR HARD DRIVE. IT IS AINU.TXT AND CAN BE FOUND ON
DISK 2 or 3.
6) If you edit the default destination during the installation
of MYTHIC BEARS, DO NOT INSTALL A REGISTERED VERSION INTO THE SAME
DIRECTORY AS YOUR SHAREWARE VERSION because the slide show will
be disabled. If you accidentally did so, then follow this
procedure:
a) Delete all files and the BEARS directory.
b) Delete the INI AND SCRIPT FILES IN YOUR WINDOWS
DIRECTORY. There will be two such files: bear####.scr
and bear####.ini. This operation will also delete BEARS
from the list of screen savers in the Desktop Item of the
Windows Control Panel.
c) Restart Windows.
d) Reinstall MYTHIC BEARS.
