- Q: I have Albatros installed, but when i try to start it, it says MDM.*** not found
- or the Program does not start and instead shows a settings page
-
- A: Please install MMPM/2 for OS/2
-
-
- Q: I have MMPM/2 installed, but Albatros shows "NO DISC" even when there is a
- AUDIO CD in the drive
-
- A: There are two possible solutions :
- 1) You installed MMPM/2 but forgot to Install CD ROM Support, just reinstall
- CD ROM support in MMPM/2 again
-
- 2) You installed CD ROM Support in MMPM/2 but the Path is incorrect:
- Check in the MMPM/2 Setup whether the CD Rom is pointing to the correct
- Drive Letter
-
-
- Q: Albatros starts fine, but there is no sound comming through the speaker, even when i turn
- Albatros' Volume Knob
-
- A: This problem is usually related to your sound card, when the CD ROM wiring is connected to
- the internal CD ROM input of your Sound Card. This input of your sound card is sometimes
- set to "0"
-
- You will now have to use a PMMIXER for your sound Card to enable the CD ROM Sound input to
- anything higher than "0"
-
- On an IBM machine it might help to start the Wave Editor Applet to restore your CD Sound
- ( sounds strange, but works ! )
-
-
- Q: Albatros shows a totally black display ( I had Version 1.2 and everything was fine,
- now i upgraded to 1.5 )
-
- A: The color selector has changed. Please go to Notebook Page Three and Select COLOR-DEFAULT,
- this will restore your Colors.
-
-
- Q: What is the Font Developers Kit good for ?
-
- A: To create you own LCD Style Fonts ( It requires the OS/2 Programming Toolkit )
-
-
- Q: I had quite a few Titles entered in CD EXPLORER, do I have to type them again?

-
-
- Q: When i try to select a new color from the color palette and drop it on the color
- preview page, the color of the background is changed, but not the foreground
-
