Sound or Performance Problems
For optimum performance, interactive multimedia software requires adequate memory. Therefore, please check that you have enough available RAM. Quitting all other applications and turning off INITs will help free RAM (If you aren╒t sure how, please see your Apple Macintosh manual). You can check the amount of RAM available in the following way:
1. Quit all applications, including VroomBooks.
2. Choose About This Macintosh from the Apple Menu. (System 6, choose About The Finder from the Apple Menu). The amount of memory available is shown by The Largest Unused Block value.
3. You should have at least 2,780K shown as The Largest Unused Block value. If this number is below 2,780K, your VroomBooks product could have problems playing certain sounds or animations. (Also, virtual memory should be turned off, as it will affect the quality of sounds.)
Display Problems
Check that the display is set to 256 colors using the Monitors control panel. Control panels are located under the ╥Apple╙ menu (see your Apple Macintosh manual for additional information).
