     If you click OK, Setup creates the C:\ Microsoft Games \Deadly Tide folder for you and installs Deadly Tide there.

     I f you type a different destination folder’s path and click OK, Setup installs Deadly Tide in the folder you have specified; if the folder does not already exist, Setup creates the folder for you, and installs Deadly Tide in it.

     To browse through the existing folder hierarchy on your machine, click the Browse button. This displays the existing hierarchy of folders on your machine. From here you can take two different approaches:
1. You can install Deadly Tide in an existing folder. To do this, double-click the folder. When the selected folder’s name appears in the dialog box, Click OK. Setup installs Deadly Tide in the selected folder.
2. You can click an existing folder, add a new subfolder to its path by typing a backslash and a new folder name to the end of the existing path, then click OK. Setup creates the new folder and installs Deadly Tide in it. (For example, if you click a folder with the path C:\Funstuff, type \Deadly Tide, and click OK, Setup creates the C:\Funstuff \Deadly Tide folder for you, and installs Deadly Tide in it.)

Even if the CD/System test results show insufficient performance, you can continue installation and play the game, but game performance will be less than optimal. You may be able to increase performance by reducing graphic quality, turning sound off, and using a mouse instead of a joystick. Write down the values shown in the test results dialog box for future reference.

Type the 10-digit number that appears on a sticker on the Microsoft Deadly Tide jewelcase or in the jewelcase booklet. The first three digits you type appear in the narrow left-hand box; as you continue to type, the remaining seven digits appear in the wider right-hand box. If you type more than 10 digits, your machine beeps with each keystroke, but no more numbers appear in the dialog box. Click OK to continue installation.
