TROUBLESHOOTING
If you are experiencing problems running Home Improvement 1-2-3 check the following:
Ñ Make sure the program has enough memory available
In the Finder, go to the Apple menu (top left of screen) and select "About this Macintosh." The "Largest Unused Block" should be at least 4,096k. If it is below 4,096k, make sure that no other applications are running. (You can be check this by clicking on the Macintosh icon on the top-right corner of your menu bar. "Finder" should be the only application listed.) If no other applications are running and your Largest Unused Block is still below 4,096k, you should turn on or increase your virtual memory.
Turning on Virtual Memory
In the Finder, go to the Apple menu (top left of screen), select the "Control Panels" and then select the item "Memory." On the pop-up panel, find the Virtual Memory section and switch it on. You will need to restart your computer to have this change take effect. (Note: You can change the size of the Virtual Memory in the box on the right side. Usually, the default setting is sufficient.)
SPECIAL NOTES
Ñ To avoid printing problems, be sure to turn background printing OFF. This can be done via the Chooser under
the Apple Menu at the top left corner of the screen.
