                       INSTALLATION


1. You *must* use a ZIP program that can extract Long File
   Names, otherwise the Theme will not work. I recommend
   Winzip 6.0 or greater.

2. You need to have the Microsoft Plus! pack installed, or use the shareware
   Program "Desktop Themes" by Left Side Software (http://www.lss.com.au).

3. If "Use folder names" is checked in WinZip (or similar utility), then 
    Autumn Coast can simply be extracted to "C:\", or whichever
    drive contains your Themes files, and Autumn Coast will extract
    itself into the default folders.

   Otherwise, if you have not implemented that feature, you must create
   a folder called "Autumn Coast" under your Themes folder, and manually 
   extract all of the files to there. Then, move the "Autumn Coast.Theme" 
   file into the Themes Directory. 

   In both cases, move the "Tahoma.ttf" file to your \Windows\Fonts folder, 
   and the "Dangerous Creatures.scr" screensaver to your \Windows\System 
   folder (if you do not already have it).

4. The Startup Screen (logo.sys) should be moved to the root directory of 
   your boot drive. If you have compressed your boot drive with Drivespace, then you             must place Logo.sys in the root directory of your Host drive. Place Logow.sys in
   your Windows directory. Right-click these files, select Properties, and then check
   "Hidden" and "System". Click on OK. The Autumn Coast startup & shutdown screens    will now be operational.

   I have written a program called "Theme Logo Changer" that makes
   the process of changing screens MUCH easier! It works in all Display Modes, and       includes a Viewer to see the files as you work with them.  It is FREEWARE!

          Go to http:\\www.islandnet.com\~bhawker to download.
          It is also available at Nonags and Simtel.Net
