Setting up the Tutorial This program is designed to be installed and run under Windows 95 and Windows NT 4.0 only. For more information about system requirements please look at the readme file. The Setup program on this CD-ROM prepares your computer to run this program directly from this CD-ROM. (Contact MindQ about licensing if you wish to run this program on a shared server.) To run the SuperCede tutorial Setup program. The Setup program creates the C:\Program Files\MINDQ directory (or one you specify) for you. The Setup program makes sure that the MindQ applications engine (odysseus.exe) is looking in the right place for the CD drive. If, for example, the drive letter has changed as a result of a system change (i.e. if a disk or other device has been added or removed) then Odysseus will fail to find its CD-ROM. You can check that the drive letter is correct by using Windows File Manager (or Explorer for Windows 95) to see which letter is assigned to the CD drive. Running the Setup program again will solve this problem. Video Playback Considerations For best results on older or slower machines, play the video in 8-bit (256) color mode. Video playback is slower in any video mode other than 256 colours. To verify that you are running your videos in 256 colors, Open Control Panel, double click on the Display icon and click the Settings tab.     Contents | Top | Help
