1. System Requirements
======================

*  Personal Computer running Microsoft Windows 95 or Windows NT 3.51
   or later
*  4 MB free disk space on the disk drive where Netscape Navigator
   2.0 is installed.
*  4 MB additional free disk space on the disk drive where Microsoft
   Windows is installed, to be used temporarily by the Install
   program.
*  Netscape Navigator 2.0 or higher


===============
2. Installation
===============

1. Make sure that the Netscape Navigator 2.0 is NOT running.

2. Find RAIDER.EXE in Windows Explorer or the File Manager, and
double-click it to run it.  This unpacks the program files.  Now
run the setup.exe program, which installs CyberAge Raider and then
deletes the temporary files it created.

NOTE: It is recommended you create a new folder and put raider.exe in
it before starting the installation.

3. Follow the step-by-step prompts until the finish.

Installation creates a shortcut on your desktop called CyberAge Raider



=====================
3. Starting CyberAge Raider 
=====================

After installation, double-click the desktop icon labeled CyberAge
Raider, or choose CyberAge Raider from the Windows 95 Start 
Menu | Programs | CyberAge. In Windows NT, find the
CyberAge Raider icon in the CyberAge program group, and
double-click it.

If during installation, you had consented to CyberAge Raider as
Netscape Navigator's default home page, then starting Netscape
will automatically launch CyberAge Raider.

We recommend running only one instance of CyberAge Raider at a
time.

There are two additional ways you can launch CyberAge Raider from Netscape
Navigator 2.0:

*  Choose File | Open File.  Open the file called raider.htm, which 
is located in the root-directory where you installed CyberAge Raider. 

*  Go to Bookmarks, and choose CyberAge Raider Plug-in.

5.  Known Bugs and Troubleshooting
============================================================

1. Initial CyberAge Hierarchy supplied with this Beta Release is hard-coded, so as such may contain some outdated links.  Watch out for our new release with on-line CyberAge Directory.
2.  If you design your own HTML document with CyberAge Raider embed tag, and are hosting it up on a WWW server - you will need to make some settings in the properties section of the server.  These parameters are - "virtual=magic/msmagic", and "mime=.anm". 
3.  The Program runs best under 256 color display.  Under 24 bit resolution, the application may slow down.
4.  It is recommended to keep CyberAge Raider open in only one instance,  and use it as launch pad to open multiple Netscape instances.
