Hmmm... I borrowed myst from a guy I work for, and I have no problems running
it with MTMCDAE.SYS, but it ran slower (along with all my other CD stuff) using
MTMCDAS... Who knows, you probably have different hardware, and config's than
I do, too many varibles that can affect performance.... Good Luck.

I received my DAK CD-ROM bundle yesterday and finally got around to
installing it today. I opted for the faster and more expensive ($399)
bundle which includes Microsoft Bookshelf, Family Doctor and Battle
Chess. The external drive is an OEM Sony CDU-6201 (with a BSR brand
logo) with an 380ms seek time and 150K data transfer rate.
I also ordered the Bonus bundle #2 which includes Microsoft Small
Business/Stat Pack, Time Almanac, US History, Magazine Rack and Bible
Library. At $149, an unbeatable deal. I was especially pleased that
it took about 1/2 the promised 5-6 week wait to receive it (they are
heavily back-ordered.)
The installation process is simple: install the software, install the
card and attach the cables and you're in business. The amount of
documentation that came with the bundle is quite impressive--there are
about 13 different booklets (about a 3 inch stack!) that describe
every nuance of the hardware and software. Many sortcuts, examples
and helpful hints are included in the manuals along with fine
tutorials in the DAK tradition.
An equally impressive number of installation disks (including MS/Sony
CD-ROM extensions) and some nice touches like a nice audio CD playing
program and a Windows-like CD-ROM launcher program that can also be
used as a simple DOS Shell as well as 3 pricey CD carriers are also
included.
Drew A. Kaplan (whose initials spell D.A.K.) has done it again! While
the CD-ROM drive is far from cutting edge technologically, it is
especially fast and sturdy (especially compared with drives included
in such low cost bundles) and seems to deal well with graphics and
text retrieval, although I don't know how well it would work for more
demanding multimedia applications. The software bundles are
impressive and useful with very little (if any) "filler". Consdering
the cost of the software alone, it's like getting the drive for free!
All in all, an exceptional bargain that lives up to its hype.

CD-ROM Review
Aris Entertainment's Deep Voyage
by John P. Husvar
jhusvar@nimitz.mcs.kent.edu
This Aris MediaClips (TM) CD must have been designed to make divers
jealous; it certainly did me. Bonaire, Truk Lagoon, Florida, the kelp
forests off California, AARRGH! I wanna go! What's that, Honey? We
don't have enough bucks? Figures! Well, back to mud-diving in the
potholes of Northeast Ohio. (Sigh!)
But seriously, folks.... As a casual SCUBA diver, and one who wishes,
just wishes, (!) he could travel the world signing himself onto dive
cruises and his wife onto horseback adventures, I found Deep Voyage
mouth-watering, just mouth-watering. Most of those exotic places read
about in dive magazines are here, full-color and realistic enough that
you want to bring a towel. The photographer(s) did a good job here and
underwater photography is not point and shoot.
Do I sound impressed? You bet! I'm not one to be gratuitously harsh
_or_ complimentary but this clip collection is just plain classy all
the way. I'm just going to have to find or make a program to flip
through these Aris pictures for a screen saver or wallpaper flipper.
It would be a nice change from the usual cartoons, flying appliances,
and so on.
And yet, I have somewhat against thee, Aris. I'd like more descriptive
filenames and a few more cross links in the text database. It's not
that one can't find a specific picture with the search program, but
it's a touch inconvenient having to take notes if wishing to go
directly to "that picture of the skulls in Truk Lagoon," for instance.
It's a minor gripe but noticeable nonetheless. If all you remember is
"bones" or Skeleton," you might have to work a bit finding a specific
image. Lazy? Me? Well, yes, and, as I said, it's a minor gripe after
all. Would I defer buying this CD for that? Not a chance!
The text information is adequate and includes enough to be somewhat
educational, even. It's no more exhaustive than you would expect in a
clip collection and you can always slip in the encyclopedia CD or go
to the library for more information. Multimedia producers who _do_
make educational programs would probably appreciate taxonomic names of
the fish, sponge, etc. pictures but the information is sufficient for
captioning an entertainment, popular lecture presentation, or
lower-grade-level educational offering.
This Aris offering is another good'un, clear, sharp pictures, adequate
informational text, and everything works. I'm coming to expect that
from Aris and that's what I, and, I imagine, every CD-ROM buyer,
wants. You want to put it in the drive, log into it, type "setup" or
"install" (or just double-click it) and get on with viewing. Well,
that's about how all the Aris MediaClip(TM) CDs I've tried have
worked, no-brainer installation for a minimal-brainer user. (in my
case) One shouldn't have to be a MAC, Windows, or DOS programmer to
use a product. It's nice to learn one's machine, but most PC users
now-a-days are users, not programmers. After all, who has to be a
metallurgist, blacksmith, and machinist to use a wrench? And who wants
to have to be? When I want to _work_ at using a computer, I'll dial my
UNIX account and play to my heart's content and my psychiatrist's
enrichment.
'Nuff said! SOAPBOX_MODE OFF. Back to the program.
As with all their MediaClips products, Aris addresses the buyer's
probable wish to do more than just view the images. They supply all
100 files in 8-bit 320 X 240 and 640 X 480 BMP and PCX formats, 24-bit
TIFF for use in high-res paint programs, and their audio in both WAV
and VOC formats. They also extend on-the-box permission to reproduce
up to 20% of the images sounds or videos royalty-free in print or
digital publications so long as the artists and Aris Entertainment's
copyright are duly credited.
Anyone wanting higher-resolution copies of pictures, movies, or sounds
can contact Aris Entertainment who will then put them in touch with
the artists so they can negotiate rights, etc.

MS-=> 2. MPC II Compliant Sound Card -
Hello there! I hope to be going multi-media after the
Christmas, and thus have to buy a sound card.. I was wondering,
what exactly are the MPC II specs for a sound card?
As for SCSI, since I have a SCSI-II HD controller, I shouldn't
have to worry about that, should I?

Subj: MYST sound problems! Refer: NONE
Read: [N/A] Private: No
I hope someone can help. I upgraded with a new multimedia kit, thus replacing
both the CD-ROM drive and the sound card. All my software works; Myst, however,
has a minor problem that I cannot correct. My new sound card is a Sound FX Wave
32, the CD-ROM is a Reveal (?) CR-563-B. When running Myst everything works
fine during the introduction. In fact better than ever, there are no video
glitches, the sound works great! but once I land on the island I no longer have
any of the sound effects, such as the lapping of the water on the dock, or the
birds flying overhead. I miss these sounds and would like to get them running
with my new hardware. I have done plenty of testing. While Myst is running, I
can switch to my mixer and adjust all the the volume settings, I can also run
.wav files and midi files simultaniously while Myst is running in the
foreground or background. I am scratching my head over this one, My hardware is
working while Myst is running, but once I land on the island Myst stops talking
to my hardware I guess. Oh and when I go to exit, the sound fires up again for
the closing credits. Any thoughts would be appreciated (other than using my old
hardware). Thanks

DF>No Mike, I have not recieved any messages concerning the discs. I checked

═════════════════════════════════════════════ VεctorQuotε 1.o ═════════════
OK, to sum up, the Post Office returned your order in early September (by
slow boat presumably), with a sticker attached saying "customer moved". I
don't have a phone # for you, and since the Post Office apparently couldn't
find you, I tried to contact you here, but with no luck until now.
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════

═════════════════════════════════════════════ VεctorQuotε 1.o ═════════════
That's fine. I still have your order in my database here, so however you
want to handle it is OK with me.
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
DF>you. Also I need to change the address to my civilian address to keep this
DF>from happening again. Coincidentally, what reason did the post office kick
DF>it back for? I've had no problems up until now. I will check your offers
═════════════════════════════════════════════ VεctorQuotε 1.o ═════════════
Unknown, except for the little tag that read, "customer moved". Actually,
this type of thing is almost getting to be commonplace when dealing with
the Postal Service. Amazing how they've stayed in business this long. Go
ahead and give me your new address, and I'll insert it into your file for
any future orders. The old one I have is: BOX 186 HHC 3-5 CAV
UNIT CMR 452
APO AE 09045
Does that check out? I hope I didn't enter it wrong. Anyway, I'll wait
to hear back from you.

Liam,
I think that if you look at the content of my messages over any reasonable
length of time, you'll find that my demeanor is as favorable as the next
person. As long as users of this, or any echo treat me with the respect
and common courtesy we all deserve, then I will repay them with the same
sentiments, times 10. But when someone blatantly disregards those two
qualities in a communication with me, they will discover in short order
that I can be just as nasty, and sometimes more so. I freely admit that
this is probably not entirely in my best "business interests", but I've
always felt that being honest and true to myself, was far more important
than "making a quick buck" anyway. With me, you get what you see.....
nothing held back. I don't know if that's the politically correct way of
doing things, but it's how my grandfather taught my father, and how my
father taught me. Besides, I gave up trying to please EVERYONE years
ago. It requires far too much energy, and it's impossible anyway. <g>

Hell Erik, that price is about $35 more than any price I can find in
USA. I have seen them here all over the place for $125. Sometimes they
are even as low as $105. I can get a BRAND NEW Philips 2.2x drive (350
kb/sec transfer rate) still in the wrap for $130. But it comes with its
own controllor card, so it can't be controlled by your sound card. It
does have the cd-audio cable though to hook up to the sound card, it
also has RCA jacks on the controller card. I have a Mitsumi 2x(probably
the same one you want) and this Philips drive and the Philips drive is
really faster. Both drives have 64k buffers.

If can afford "MYST" and like puzzle games, it is a must. It won the
award for '93 I think or maybe '94 for the game with the absolutely best
video graphics, and it is a lot of fun to play. I have seen it for
around $30 used and $50 new at Sam's. Also 7th Guest and the 11th Hour
are awesome, by means of graphics. 11th Hour is the sequel to 7th Guest.
If you like Doom get Doom II for the CD-rom. There is another totally
awesome "Doom like" game called Dark Forces. It is "Star Wars" theme and
you fight all the Imperial guards, Storm Troopers. It is actually better
than Doom because you can look up&down and jump, and even look around
corners. It may be a little expensive but it is also brand new.
There is a very inexpensive cd-rom magazine I get about monthly. It is
called IE or Interactive Entertainment. It is a cd-magazine, which
review all the new games in computer land. They even review games for
Sega, SNES, Jaguar, 3DO, and just about any other game maker out there.
They also give away a full complete game each month and about 4 or 5
shareware games, like Doom and Raptor. I get it at Egghead software for
$10. Best-Buy has it also if you can't get to Egghead for the same
price.

I can highly recommend Falcon Gold. I think it's a great deal for the price,
especially when you consider it includes Falcon, Mig, Hornet, and Art of the
Kill video on CD-ROM. For less than $60 it's a great deal. I hear Falcon 4
won't be ready until well into next year, or at least that's the impression I'm
getting. I think Spectrum Holobyte's official work is "sometime next year."
You can call Flight Sim Central at (615) 754-8750 for $54.95. They have an
excellent reputation on CompuServe, although I haven't personally ordered from
them.

I have the Magnavox hooked up on my system here with the Magnavox CDD 163

Personal Netware and have the CD-ROM on the server.
I don't know if this will help you but I figured I'd give it to you just in

I have that CD-ROM drive and it suits me. I mainly use mine for

It will support the sound cards and it show the movie type disc's.

Mike, I sure appreciate your taking the time to post this walkthru.
I'm still having just a bit of trouble here, though. When I get

I assume you're talking about the CDROM covers, first look in the

I think, if you do have to, please venture of very carefully into

Hi Akio,
Thanks for the HIGHLITE in regards to the unit, and my questions,
as you say, if it does not meet the spec why sould anyone invest it in,
really appreciate your input.....just have to saveup more, maybe
a Plextor SCSI would be a ideal unit afterall.....

the PAS 16 has a SCSI interface on the card, which is made by TRANTOR,

at 1 800 638 2807, BBS 510 770-0527, thay willbe more then happy to
help in regards to compatiability of the CDROM unit with the PAS16
card. THe MVSOUND.SYS is the driver for the card only, to activate
the SCSI part you need a additional driver that I think they have
on their BBS or youmay have to try TRANTOR. One very important
info to find out is that the CDROM, is it SCSI 1 or SCSI 2 and also
if it is a standard SCSI interface or proprietry interface...very import..
Try these and see it works out for you, post me if you require more info

Andy it's good to see you on the echo again. How about an answer
to my message sent about three weeks ago regarding my cd order?
I wanted to know how come I had to call you long distance no less than
four times, each time on "my dime" over a period of eight weeks. The
last time we spoke you gave me a UPS tracking number for the order.
When I called UPS, they said the number was invalid.
You sure have a strange way of doing business.
Damn good thing it was a COD order ..... I'm sure glad it wasn't a
"money-up-front" order.

--> $449 <-- PIONEER DRM-602X SIX DISK CD CHANGER --> $449 <--
The Pioneer DRM-602X is a six disk SCSI-2 CDROM changer. It's the
perfect solution for adding multiple CDROMs to your BBS. Pioneer
has stopped production of the DRM-602X and is focusing exclusively
on quad speed drives. Once the supply in the distribution pipeline
sells out, this drive will no longer be available for purchase. The
alternative, Pioneer's DRM-604X, still costs about $1000...
The DRM-602X has the following features:
-- Double speed, 307 k/sec transfer rate.
Disk change time, less than 5 seconds.
Access time, 300 msec.
-- Bare drive includes cartridge, audio cables, and
power cord.
-- DOS SCSI drivers supplied for ASPI compliant adaptors,
Future Domain adaptors, and the IBM PS/2 adaptor.
The price of $449 is for a factory new bare drive. If you don't
already have a SCSI interface and cable, I can also supply them.
Shipping and Florida sales tax, if applicable, is extra.
Visa and Mastercard are accepted. I have several drives in stock
ready for shipment.

Hi Paulo. I am seriously considering getting QEMM 7.5 but would like to
hear more 1st (I've bought too much useless software to want to risk
getting burned again).
Exactly what is so awesome about ver 7.5? Does it screw up windows or
other program installations? What kind of memory savings did your friend
realize and does it slow down your machine? What kind of programs and
drivers does the manual say will NOT work with QEMM?
This and any other info you could provide would be very helpful. Thanx
in advance.

I bought the cd for my bbs, but now I use it as a 'dictionary' when I dunno

Sure. Get in your car and start down the road. Be sure to bring the 1X
drive with you. When you get to the interstate, speed up and throw it
out the window. That's about as fast as you will get :-) Sorry bout
that. I had to respond. Of course it's just a joke. My CD is a 2X and I
wish I could speed it up also, so I know how you feel. I have tried
disk caching and all sorts of tricks. I guess I will just have to be

One difference I know of is that the CD-version has 10,000 plays to
choose from while the floppy version has about 3,000. Personally I
think that 3,000 is quite sufficient, especially when you can design
your own.

You might want to add that this line presupposes an extra meg of high memory
and that to get most benefit out it, you should also read the last files of the
last dirs into memories. Speaking from personal experience, /m:512 won't be
nearly enough to keep all dir listings in memory - and bootup time "might" be
slowed down a tad waiting for them to be read <g>. As long as we're talking,
do you currently have any used Hitachis for sale? I'm looking for 3 of them.

Hi Steve,
I own this game for a long time now, and I must admit it took me along time
to solve it. I tried everything, had my friends try it, but they couldn't get
any further than the first day, like me!. But it wasn't until a 13 year old,
who I showed the game to, decided to play around with it and got to a cut scene
that I never seen before, which in turn gave me clues to go further and
eventually
solving the game the next day.
What I need to know is where and how far have you gone in the game, so that
I can help you. Have you made it past the first day? The Second day? I also
need
to know what is in your inventory, because there is some crucial stuff that you
must pick up, to finish the game, and there is other stuff that you can get,
which gives you more details, and other neat cut scenes in the game.
... ARRRRRGGGHHH!!!! ... Tension breaker, had to be done.

three of them? At least on the scsi board there is three. I'm going to

CD-ROM Review: DeLorme "Global Explorer 1.0"
by John Husvar
jhusvar@nimitz.mcs.kent.edu
De Lorme Mapping's Global Explorer is the armchair adventurer's
passport with plane tickets included. (It has a "fly" function where
you set up a destination and the display shows the distance and
routing, choice of two routes, with intermediate stops.) No
frequent-flyer miles, though.
Complex as it is, Global Explorer was surprisingly easy to learn. A
friend loaned me a copy for review; no manuals, just a CD in a caddy.
Less than an hour later, I was traveling the world.
It works very much like Street Atlas, magnification buttons in and
out, a quick revert to world or region view, map centering by mouse
click, etc. Some of its functions are appropriate to a world atlas'
broader requirements, though.
The Gazetteer function lets you type in a country, region, "province,"
point of interest, or other name and go directly there on the map. It
also displays a list of similar names that you can select by point and
click if you're unsure of the exact spelling. Each selection is
accompanied with a listing of what kind of object the name represents
and where it's located. One thing jumped out at me about those
listings; the United States is made up of States _not_ provinces.
DeLorme seems to have used "province> " as a generic name for
political subdivisions but, to me, calling the USA's States
"provinces" just grates a bit. The Gazetteer is also the starting
point for most of the CD's text information. Enable the "Country" box
and then click on the country desired and then the "Info" button. A
Windows Help-style box appears with profile information for that
country. Within that is an index of Country and Dependencies
Information.
The Fly function is intriguing. You can select any place as "here" and
any other (via the Gazetteer) as "destination." Click the "Fly" button
and Global Explorer tells the distance the trip will cover and will
show the routing on the map, complete with stops enroute and airport
codes. It will produce an alternate routing, too. The Direct Fly
function will show destinations with direct flights available from the
departure point.
Global Explorer's Street Find function is limited compared to Street
Atlas USA but, after all, there are a lot more cities to cover
world-wide. The really big cities are fairly complete. The function
only works at magnification level 12 or higher and most of the smaller
cities just aren't mapped at that level, effectively disabling Street
Find. Where it does work, though, it's the same as in Street Atlas USA
You enter the street name, click Search or Locate and the street is
highlighted on the map display.>
If you leave the Gazetteer's "Show" selection box enabled,
points-of-interest are shown by various iconic markers on the maps.
Passing the mouse cursor over these pops up an identifier flag and a
mouse click invokes either a short description or a selection dialog
that presents several such points to select by highlighting and
clicking.
Just for the fun of it, I tested Global Explorer by trying to follow
the so-called Pilgrim Trail religious pilgrims travelled in the Middle
Ages. Starting at Santiago de Compostello in Spain, I was able to
trace the route, cathedral, by basilica, by cathedral, all the way to
St.Denis, near Paris. Probably no one but a wannabee Art Historian
like me would do that but it showed me the program is pretty
comprehensive, at least in Europe. It seems all the other major
Mediaeval sites are there. By the time I finished playing around that
way, I had my latest term paper subject: CD-ROM Technology as
Textbook.
A few places seemed to be either shifted or misplaced from the
locations I remember them being but I'm not Geographer enough to be
sure. It's also possible I'm confusing their locations on Mediaeval
maps I've had to use with their contemporary political placement. I
did repeatedly try to locate Aix-au Chappelle, France before
remembering it is now Aachen, Germany again. Through history many
places changed names and countries depending on who won the previous
Spring's war. Some have criticized Global Explorer for misplacements
so it might be well to check another reference if there is doubt. I,
myself, wasn't quite certain of a couple of locations. Since I had no
chance to trek to a library, this is maybe, maybe not.
Overall, the program is impressive in appearance, runs well and
quickly for its size and complexity and seems like it would make a
good quick reference for Geography studies or travel planning, not to
mention just armchair adventuring.
System Requirements are: 386 or higher, VGA, 4 MB RAM, 3 MB HD space,
Windows 3.1 or higher, DOS 4.01 or higher, and mouse. There is no
sound card requirement since it uses no sound functions. I tested it
on a 486-25 system with 4MB RAM, SVGA, Windows 3.1 and DOS 6.

Who's the reviewer?
John P. Husvar (jhusvar@nimitz.mcs.kent.edu) Art Historian at-Large,
Kent State University (Yes, THAT Kent State!)
I come neither to praise nor to bury Caesar, just to talk about him.
(Sorry, Will!)
As the prototypical "Mr. Dumb PC-user," I tend to look at a new (to me
at least) CD with a playful, kind of
Wowsers-what-can-I-do-with-THIS-one, point of view. That may result in
sometimes being too easy on one CD and too hard on another. Usually it
results in my playing with the thing for a few hours to a few weeks
and writing up some general thoughts on what purpose I think it might
serve, what glitches jump out at me, whether I could figure out some
good use for it, and what new (again, to me) features it has that seem
to improve the breed.
Comments and criticisms about this and any of my reviews are welcome.
I want to be fair and I'll be the first to admit I don't know
everything about anything. I'm certainly not so expert that I couldn't

CD-ROM Review: Creative Multimedia's "Family Doctor"
by John Husvar
jhusvar@nimitz.mcs.kent.edu
I had some problems getting started with The Family Doctor. After
fiddling a bit and again proving that I am emphatically not a DOS
guru, I called Creative Multimedia's Technical Support line. Not only
did they diagnose the problem with my system, they practically gave me
a quick course in system setup. I suppose a cynic might say they knew
they were working with a reviewer so they went farther than they might
normally go. I didn't get that impression. Steve and the other guys
spent more than four hours wi> th me over two days, much of that time
on their phone bill, not mine.
Reading README.TXT before installing is worth the trouble, especially
if you have Creative Multimedia's Who Killed Sam Rupert installed as
it and The Family Doctor aren't quite compatible. The file also
contains full de-installation instructions, a useful feature, since
this program does alter the control files Autoexec.BAT, System.INI,
Control.INI, and Win.INI.
In a time when "customer service" can be an oxymoron, it was
refreshing.
About the program: This is the first home medical guide program I've
seen. I know there are others, but this one landed on my desk first.
So it's getting the benefit both of my freshness to the genre and of
the skepticism of a wheelchair-riding MS patient who's seen more
doctors and gathered more medical information than he ever wanted.
The Family Doctor stands up well to both. The CD is a home medical
guide by the author of the syndicated column of the same name, Dr.
Allan Bruckheim, M.D., FAAFP.
Dr. Bruckheim has been doing this a while and it shows. The
information is current and much more complete than I would have
thought likely in a general-audience health guide. The amount of raw
information on this CD is astonishing. Dr. Brukheim and Creative
Multimedia have managed to include some 2300 frequently asked
questions, 300 color illustrations, a prescription drug guide with
1600 entries and pictures of many of their pill form, a nice human
anatomy guide with video and sound, a database on Rare Disorders, and
an animated First Aid Guide, (More on that later.) a resource list,
and a strong search program. You can print out all the files for
future reference.
Almost every selection provides pointers to more information and it's
worth the extra drag and clicks to check it. Many of the articles list
bibliographies for further research.
The CD installs easily in Windows, requiring only the usual Windows
Run "SETUP" procedure. It's a little slow starting up but no worse
than any CD with a big interface program. The interface might feel
slightly odd to Windows users. Pull-down menus work after the
Macintosh fashion, click, drag the highlight bar to your selection and
then release the mouse button. The menus don't stay down in the
typical Windows manner. I didn't consider that a fault, just
different.
At startup a nice opening screen appears with a quick-select guide to
the left, supplementing the text buttons on the main screen. On the
Main Screen, buttons for the program functions nestle on the right:
Introduction and Agreements -- contains the software license and Dr.
Brukheim's video introduction. (Be warned! Dr. Brukheim's speaking
voice, while pleasant is, ummm...shall we say...powerful?) The intro
supplies a good overview of the program and its use. The doctor
hasn't left anything important out and advice from the author, in this
case, is very useful.
Questions & Answers - This is the main body of the CD. (The Human
Anatomy section is _your_ body on the CD.) It contains some 2300 of
the medical questions Dr. Brukheim has addressed in his tenure as a
syndicated medical columnist. The amount of information here is
surprising. Many of the articles include pointers to other information
on the CD, usually available by a simple drag and click. Everything on
this disc seems to be linked to everything else that might be apropos.
The structure of the database gu> ides you from the more general ideas
or questions to specific issues virtually painlessly. You might go
through two or three screens to get to the exact question you want but
the program works quickly enough that it's worth the trip.
Rare Disorders - This is one of the more intriguing sections. There
are diseases explained here that may affect only a few tens of people.
(One I looked at had only 40 reported cases.) The articles explain the
conditions as fully as practical in a popular work and include many of
the other conditions that might mimic one of the truly rare ones.
Bibliographic pointers to medical literature enable further research.
Prescription Drug Guide -- 1600 commonly prescribed medicines are
listed by generic-name. You can find them by trade name using the
Search and Browse system. Many of the listings are accompanied by
pictures of the pill forms under the "Additional Information"
pull-downs. The listings include how prescribed and supplied, how to
take them, side effects and conditions they are usually prescribed to
treat. It's not the Physician's Desk Reference, but it's not as hard
to use or understand, either.
Basic First Aid - This is just what it says, a solid guide to handling
medical emergencies for the layman. It covers treating minor to
life-threatening situations. with solid advice on everything from cuts
and bruises to heart attacks, drowning, electrical shock, and
poisoning. Unfortunately, there's a glitch in the program that,
combined with my system's configuration, wouldn't allow me to run the
animations or sounds. It seems the .WAV files for this section were
recorded at a non-standard sampling rate and require a Sound Blaster
driver to run. Since my system uses all the low IRQs and the Windows
SB Driver 1.5 only addresses IRQs up to 7, I couldn't play the sounds
and the program warned me that I had no .WAV player capable of playing
this sound format. Creative Multimedia's> Technical Support folks
agreed that the non-standard sound format should have been caught and
that Windows Sound System users really shouldn't have to install an
additional driver to run this program, but its in there. I trust they
will resolve this in the 4th Edition. So I really can't do justice to
this portion of The Family Doctor. From reading only the text, the
information seems to be a pretty standard First Aid guide.
Resources - Listings of Associations and Foundations related to
medical concerns, listing of Educational and Support Groups, and a
collection of health-related booklets. This is a good source of places
to look for informational and support groups related to specific
conditions.
Illustrations - This contains some 300 .BMP files of informational
illustrations of Anatomy, Body Processes, the appearances of various
Diseases and Injuries, Medical Procedures, and Health & Social Issues.
The illustrations are clear and informative, well labelled and good
quality. They provide a helpful adjunct to the textual information,
putting a "face" on the data.
Anatomy of the Human Body -- Hmmm. Beauty really is only skin deep.
No, not really. I find the human body fascinating and this section
only reinforces that fascination. All the body's major systems are
shown with their organ placement. The movies that accompany each major
system division show them well, often in live action. You can choose
from three magnification levels and as the cursor touches an item, a
right button click activates a sound file that gives the correct
pronunciation for that anatomical t> erm. Even more detailed
illustrations are available in the Illustrations Menu by selecting
that section's Human Anatomy division.
Search & Browse - Here's The Family Doctor's power plant. So far as
I've tried, barring misspellings, I've been able to find everything I
wanted within a few seconds. you can search for a specific term, drug,
organ, or program item or any combination thereof with Boolean

operators available at a click-and-drag. Just for fun, I tried
"allergy," AND "penicillin." Bingo! I got a listing of 30 articles
covering these two items in combination in, apparently, descending
relationship to penicillin allergy, from a> naphylactic shock reaction
to penicillin to general information on allergies and including a list
of illustrations of various allergic reactions. I had a few "no
occurrence" messages from artificially complicated searches, but I was
_trying_ to beat the program with conditions you'd expect to find in a
serious medical textbook, not in a family medical guide. Search is
particularly handy for looking up medications. A trade name search
will usually find the article on that dr! ug quickly.
I would have been happier with Search if it highlighted the "hits."
Some of the references it yields seem a little obscure now and then.
I'd like to see an interface of this quality on Creative Multimedia's
"Audubon's Birds" and Audubon's Mammals" that I reviewed a few days
ago. This is what I had in mind when I criticized their using Disc
Passage on those CDs.

Hi!
Do you have a FAX number to which I could send one?
I'm willing to buy this CD, but international call is very expensive,
and if we could do this by fax would be much easier and cheaper for
me, right? As soon as I get your answer I'll make the request.

Is anyone using this combination ?

DG>MS-=> 2. MPC II Compliant Sound Card -
DG> Hello there! I hope to be going multi-media
DG>after the
DG> Christmas, and thus have to buy a sound card.. I was
DG>wondering,
DG> what exactly are the MPC II specs for a sound card?
DG> As for SCSI, since I have a SCSI-II HD controller, I
DG>shouldn't
DG> have to worry about that, should I?
Well, you're right about the SCSI - If you already have a SCSI II HD
controller then any SCSI I or II CD-Rom that needs a SCSI connection can be
connected to this, provided the correct driver is used.
As for the Sound Card being MPC II compliant - I read the Sound Card should :
a) have at least 40 Voices
b) uses advanced synthesis rather than FM type
c) should have a SCSI I or II connection (may be omitted if SCSI HD is used)
d) has availability to replay better than 44.1KHZ or sustained (no distortion)
e) Direct access to Wave Table, Conversion or adapter (add on type)
There are some other more Music Tech related requirements - I well dig up that
article and try to be more specific in another reply.

Also, are you able to get the GENEALOGY echos. There is a person
there who is offering the Irish Ship List Disk for $5.00 if you
supply the floppy and a prepaid mailer. Here is a copy of the
message he sent in that echo.
════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════L÷ëL$9$9á£╥.(Fido) CD ROM C:\FIDOMAIL\CDROM.TXT
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────LëL$9$9á£╥.(Fido) CD ROM C:\FIDOMAIL\CDROM.TXT
the public in LDS Family
History Centers, the National Archives, and other genealogical libraries. It
comprises almost 6000 names of Irish (ONLY) emigrants who sailed to Canadian
and
American ports from 1766 until about 1894. Included with the database is a
facility which allows quick and easy searches for your Irish ancestors, their
dates of sailing, ports of embarkation and arrival, and the name of the ship on
which they sailed. If ages, religion, occupation, home place in Ireland, and
any other notes were also in the original records, they are included in the
database.
Please understand that this is necessarily only a partial listing of the
hundreds of thousands of Irish who emigrated during the 18th and 19th
centuries.
The database is intended to be merely a guide; a genealogical tool, for fast,
easy and reliable searching by computer, as opposed to scanning with the naked
eye through paper copies. It is not offered as a primary source for
genealogical documentation. It is meant to provide another possible clue to
your ancestors' migration.
II. In addition to the database, the disk contains other valuable and
hard-to-find information to aid in your Irish research, including:
1. An excellent and informative guide to the vital records
available in Ireland and how to obtain them.
2. A treatise on Irish research, with valuable tips and resources
both here and in Ireland, which will save you time and help
avoid useless effort.
3. Directions for using the National Archives to further your
search for more extensive passenger arrival records, ships'
manifests, and other data which can give surprisingly detailed
information about your ancestor. Often such records include
village of birth, destination at arrival, name of sponsor etc.
--- even the amount of money they carried!
PLEASE NOTE: The Irish Ship List disk is available ONLY in
3.5-inch size, and ONLY in IBM format.
MAC USERS: While I am not familiar with Mac format, many Mac
users tell me they've had no difficulty reading this
disk using the application "Apple File Exchange", or
equivalent, and use the search facility of their word
processor for searching the database.
For your copy, please send:
------------------>>>> U. S. FUNDS, PLEASE <<<<---------------------
(1) A 3.5-inch DD or HD disk, a SELF-ADDRESSED disk mailer with
PREPAID (STAMPED!!) First-Class return postage, and $5.00 to
cover production costs, copying, rehandling, gas to the post-
office, etc.
- OR -
(2) Send $10.00. Disk will be forwarded to you postpaid

As someone who doesn't play games very often but have the opportunity to test
many of them because of the nature of my job, I recently played the 3DO game
of The Demolitian Man. I must admit, it is a great game.
Though I would not recommend buying a 3DO system just for that game. But for
those of you who have a 3DO system, try it out.

Return to Zork is a good game. The sound and graphics are very good. It's
a game that you can really become attached to because, as you play, you
begin to feel that you know the characters that you are interacting with.
Parts of the game are very interesting and easy to figure out, while other
parts are nearly impossible to get through without help.
Myst is also a good game that I am trying to get through now. It's not as
interesting as Return to Zork, though, because there are no people that you

Howdy neighbor! Amazing who you bump into now a days isn't it. I'll be
returning the fonts you loaned me soon. Have you upgraded you harddrive
yet?
.
Things are really busy for the Kirk family now.(as always) I've been to
Leesburg, VA several times this year for training and will be gone two more
weeks in Dec.
.
Hope we can get together sometime. It's shocking how little time neighbors
spend with each other. I somehow thought things would be different when I
was little, guess I didn't know how much responsibility jobs and families
and church was.
.
Well, hope you get this message. And have a nice Turkey Day.

FRONT PAGE NEWS
Reviewed by
Tony Thomas
____________________________________________________________
Who wants to read old news? Well, if you are a news junkie like I am,
you want to immerse yourself in the latest headlines 24 hours a day.
And when you're done with today's news, you don't mind scanning old
newspapers and magazines for snippets as well. Even yesterday's news
can provide some insight into the latest breaking stories and is
invaluable if you need to do some research.
Front Page News is a CD-ROM that gives you a year's worth of reports
from UPI (now fighting for its existence), Reuters, PR Newswire,
Business Wire and other wire services. It utilizes the Folio search
engine, which I think is one of the best and fastest in existence.
(It is the same one used by Magazine Rack, if you're familiar with
that product).
Searches are quick and easy and you can use multiple keywords to
narrow things down. One drawback to this product is, since you have
access to raw wire service reports, you may have to dig through
several versions of the same story as they appear on the wire hour
after hour. This is a minor annoyance that you'll learn to get used
to.
Front Page News is great CD-ROM to pull out when you are bored or need
some key research data. It is also great for impressing your friends
with little-known facts at cocktail parties. Or for sneaking answers
to tough crossword puzzles.

A CD-ROM REPORT REVIEW
******************************************************
Product: GIFs Galore
Manufacturer: Walnut Creek CD-ROM
Phone #: 1-800-786-9907
Price: $39.95
CD-ROM drives are a wonderful tool for computer graphics enthusiasts
like me. Eight-bit color graphics images are notorious for their disk
robbing capabilities. Just four of these images can consume over a
megabyte of drive space. A single CD-ROM, on the other hand can hold
thousands of such images. Walnut Creek CD-ROM's GIFs Galore is a
perfect example of such a disc.
The GIFs Galore collection is a wonderful assortment of over 6000
images in Compuserve's popular GIF format. All kinds of images are
included: from lovely models in swimsuits to animals, cartoons, clip
art, nature scenes, famous people, stunning raytraces and fractals and
much more.
Shareware viewers are also included for various computer platforms
(including Amiga, Atari ST, DEC Station, Mac, MS-DOS, Windows, OS2,
SGI Irix, SPARC and X11) to allow you to view all of these images on
what ever computer system you may be using since the image format is
device independent. The images are stored in subdirectories on the
ISO 9660 standard disc with titles ranging from "THINGS" to
"REPTILES". There are birds, boats, buildings, cars, dogs, fish,
flowers, food, frogs, hunks, insects and trains. There is an ample
swimsuit subdirectory with about the most complete collection of such
GIFs I've ever seen. These are all G & PG rated--you won't find any
racy adult stuff on this disc.
One feature I really like is that there are catalog GIF files in each
directory (labeled 000cat.gif, 001cat.GIF, etc.) allowing you see the
contents in that directory in a reduced matrix, similar to those
produced by programs like GIFCAT and GIFDESK.
With GIF Galore, Walnut Creek CD-ROM has produced the best collection
of GIF graphics I've seen at any price. Five Stars *****

Does anyone have any knowledge of the reliability of CompUSA's brand of double
speed CD-ROM drives. Miine has recently broken, and I really have no clue why
or how it is broken, but It won't read Data or Audio CD's, but the light still
comes on for a second or two when I try to access the disk. If anyone has any
ideas or suggestions please E-mail me. Thanks.

Don:
I have the game but haven't had much time to play it. Let me look through
the walk through a re-post that section for you. Hope it helps!
The Trees - Here's an easy one. Rotate the tower to face the house in the
woods then go to the tower. Look at the plaque above the ladder with the
key and write down the numbered on it. Go to the house in the woods with
the big tree behind it. Enter it, turn around, and go up to the safe. Press
the buttons until the numbers match the ones you got from the tower. Open
the box, light the match on the side, then go up to the furnace and light
the pilot light in the lower left-hand corner of it. Now turn the red wheel
clockwise until you see it turn 20 times. This should give you plenty of
time. Leave the house, turn around, and go between the two trees on the
right side of the screen. Go right up to the big tree. Wait until you see
something that looks like an elevator in the tree. When you see it, go in
it. There should be a button on the left side of the door. Hold it down
until you can enter the room underground. When you are in the room, turn
around and turn the wheel counterclockwise until it won't turn any more.
Now you can go to the book, open it, and click on the screen.
If this isn't the section you need, please repost. See ya!

CD-ROM Review: Walnut Creek's "Project Gutenberg"
Rating: ***
Publisher: Walnut Creek CDROM
System Requirements: MS-DOS, CD-ROM Drive.
Project Gutenberg Etext is a plan, a vision, if you will, a vision to
make information available to all, and freely. Begun at Illinois
Benedectine University, Project Gutenberg was designed to place as
much literature into electronic form, with as wide a distribution, as
possible. More than 150 titles have been converted and the project
continues, predominantly with volunteers typing in texts as they
become available in the public domain or by permission. Project
Gutenberg's goal is to have 10,000 of the > most used English-language
books converted to electronic text by 2001.
Walnut Creek has collected the Project Gutenberg archives and placed
them onto CD-ROM media, allowing persons lacking access to the
Internet archives to benefit from the project.
The CD comprises about 100 Mega-bytes of information, having some 150
titles in directly readable ASCII text format and .ZIP files. Each
title is stored in both formats. The directory structure is divided
into Project Gutenberg's produce for 1990, 91, 92, 93, and 94, the
Cleveland Freenet collection of historical documents, some
informational directories, and one of papers from the International
Philosophical Preprint Exchange. The latter's files are in Postscript
and other formats in some cases. Abstracts> are text files.
Here you can find Anne of Green Gables, The Wizard of Oz, Through the
Looking Glass, the John Carter of Mars and Tarzan novels by Burroughs,
the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, The Mayflower Compact, and many,
many more classic works of English and American Literature. You can
read them directly from the CD or import them into a word processor
program for easier reading or printing. Copying the .ZIP files to the
hard drive keeps the text readily available for commentary or research
without unduly occupyi> ng precious storage space.
The interface on this disc isn't at all fancy, just a straight DOS
viewer. The directory structure is less than intuitive. Apparently
Walnut Creek simply transferred the Project Gutenberg files directly
and copied those as is, without alphabetizing or otherwise altering
the ordering. Project Gutenberg specifies their files are to be
transmitted entire, without alteration. So that might explain the
apparent lack of organization. It doesn't detract greatly from the
value of the collection, but it does force > the user to search a bit
finding a particular work.
Once you have found a text, you must decide which version to read.
Some of them appear in several different versions, depending upon how
lately they were entered. The Project Gutenberg folks don't hide
anything. Earlier versions may contain errors of transcription or
formatting and they leave those versions for anyone to read. It's
worth reading the informational and disclaimer files to see how they
work and how best to use the files.
This is a nice addition to your bookshelf. It isn't especially pretty,
but it's a useful and usable collection of classic and popular
literature. There's even a King James Version Bible and a couple of
Internet "bibles."

John P. Husvar (jhusvar@nimitz.mcs.kent.edu) Art Historian at-Large,
Kent State University (Yes, THAT Kent State!)
I come neither to praise nor to bury Caesar, just to talk about him.
(Sorry, Will!)
Taking the role of the prototypical "Mr. Dumb PC-user," I tend to look
at a new (to me at least) CD with a playful, kind of
Wowsers-what-can-I-do-with-THIS-one(!), point of view. That may result
in sometimes being too easy on one CD and too hard on another.
Usually, it results in my playing with the thing for a few hours to a
few weeks and writing up some general thoughts on what features or
glitches jump out at me, whether I could figure out some good use for
it, and what new things (again, to me) it has > that seem to improve
the breed.
Comments and criticisms about this and any of my reviews are welcome.
I want to be fair and I'll be the first to admit I don't know
everything about anything. I'm certainly not so expert that I couldn't
possibly miss something. So fire away. I'll reply, assuming I have
time and I'm not in a snit. (See below)
I even occasionally enjoy warming my hands at an intelligent flame.
(The rude, obnoxious and snotty ones are routed directly to /dev/null,
though.)
Reviews are my opinion only and should not be taken as an inducement
either to purchase or not to purchase any item reviewed.

A CD-ROM REPORT REVIEW
******************************************************
Product: Mayo Clinic Family Health Book (Interactive Edition)
Manufacturer: Sony Electronic Publishing
Price: Varies
I had been looking forward to picking up Mayo Clinic for quite a
while. I found it for about $20 in the Computer Shopper, so I went for
it.
Unfortunately, even though this disc contains a great deal of
wonderful medical data, it is bogged down by an unwieldy interface.
Just booting up the disc on my older Sony drive takes an eternity due
to the cutesy animations that are put there to entertain and wow us.
Needless to say, I wasn't impressed. I wish CD-ROM makers would skip
the glitz and get down to business.
Also, the search engine requires Windows to run and there is no way to
export the data to a text file. The data seems to be encrypted on the
disc as well. Bummer.
I also experienced random GPFs when using the Windows interface. Not
what I expect from a professional product, to say the least.
Thus, if you need medical information, you may want to try the paper
copy of Mayo or pick up Family Doctor which, although not as
exhaustive a reference, is a lot easier to deal with. Mayo could be a
great product with a decent interface, faster boot up time and
exportable data. In its present form, however, it is seriously flawed.

This file will help you get the answers to the puzzles on Myst island and
all the different ages that you can go to in Myst version 1.0
Written by : Andrew Blayer
You may freely distribute this file at your convenience
The first section will explain a little about what you need to do on Myst
island, how to use the map in the library, and how to get to the tower. The
second section explains how to get to each of the different ages. The third
section tells how to get through each age. The fourth and final section
will tell how to finish the game.
Myst Island - To start off, as you go up the path towards the library, you
will find a note laying on the ground. It says, "Catherine, I've left you a
message of utmost importance in our fore-chamber beside the dock. Enter the
number of Marker Switches on this island to retrieve the message. Yours,
Atrius" I'll give this one away. After you start and are on the dock, turn
left. You should see an outline in the metal. Click on it to open the
door.
Now go all the way down to the bottom of the stairs to the pool of water.
(By the way, the water is just a holographic image) Turn right twice and go
up to the piece of paper on the wall. You should see something that looks
like a button above the upper left-hand corner of the paper. Click on it.
When it opens, change the left number to 0 and the right number to 8. Now
press the red button and wait until it closes the panel. Go back to the
imager, the thing with the water in it, and push the button in the front of
it. Now you got the message and it's time to hit some switches. Hit the one
on the dock and up the stairs by the gears. Walk around for a while and you
should be able to hit 5 more for now. Now go into the library. It's the big
building with pillars on the outside of it and an open door. Enter and turn
around a few times. You will see a red and blue book. Go up to either of
them, take the page beside it, and click it on that book. (Blue pages only
work with the blue book and red pages only work with the red book. Clicking
it on a book with a different color will have no effect) Now click on the
book to open it and you find a person trapped in each of them begging for
you to release them (The static makes it hard to understand them). You
can't do anything for them yet. Check the bookshelf in the front of the
library to find 4 books that have not been destroyed. In each one, you will
find out about each age you must visit. In the book with the blue cover and
leaves on the front, you will find constellations. Write down the patterns.
You will need them later. In the blue book with the sun on it, you will see
piano keys and numbers below them. Copy this down with the numbers and also
the highlighted keys they are pointing to. Finally, go to the map near the
door.
To see if you've hit enough switches, hold the mouse button on the tower
(flashing circles). The white line turning around should pause for a second
and turn red on 4 different places. To gain access to the tower, you must
be in the library. Go to the picture to the left of the bookshelf. Click on
it.
It should spin around and the bookshelf should go down forming stairs. When
you go back there you will find an elevator. This will take you to the
tower.
When you are in the tower, you can go up the ladder in front of you where
the tower is facing. You will just see rock if it is not facing a direction
that is important. Now, if you go to the left or the right side of the
elevator and move forward, you will see a ladder with a key on the wall.
This is what is important. If you have the tower pointed in the right
place, and go up the ladder, you will see a hint of what you need to do to
gain access to the book located there that will take you to a certain age.
To get out of the library (opening the bookshelf will close the library
door), simply click on the picture to the right of the bookshelf and make
it spin around.
How to get to the different ages
The Gears - Go to the map in the library, turn on the tower, and it stop on
the picture of the gears. Go to the tower and look at the plaque on the
wall above the ladder with the key. It will give you a time and 3 numbers.
Write them down. Get out of there and go to the clock tower that is out in
the water. Just keep going straight when you leave the library. Look at the
clock and note what time it is. Now look down at the wheels. The large heel
will move the minute hand 5 minutes ahead. The small wheel moves the hour
hand 1 hour ahead. Turn the wheels until the time on the clock matches the
time you got from the tower. Push the red button. Gears should come out of
the water making a bridge. Cross it and hit the switch. Now go into the
clock. You have to figure out how to get the 3 little gears to go in the
same sequence as the numbers in the tower that were below the time it gave
you. If the weight goes down all the way, you have to reset it. To do this,
just pull the lever with the black handle. When the numbers are right, the
weight will go all the way down, and the gear in the front of the table
will turn up like it was cut in half. Now you can go to the large gears in
the beginning near the dock and they will be open. Go up to it, open the
book inside it, and click on the moving picture.
The Spaceship - This one isn't easy. Rotate the tower so it is facing the
spaceship. Now go to the tower and look at the plaque above the ladder with
the key. It will give you a certain number of volts. Next, you need to go
to the power station. It is in the woods and has a big light above the
door.
Go down the stairs and push the button on the side of the door. When you go
in, you should see 2 dials and 10 buttons. Turn one on, write down how many
volts is produces, then turn it off. You have to find out which buttons
will equal the number of volts that were in the tower. If you go over that
number, it will cut the power to the ship. Don't worry. There are 2 towers
with cables running up to them. One is behind the power station and the
other is down the hill where the stone path to the ship is. They each have
circuit breakers on them. You have to pick one, climb up it, and pull the
lever. If you hear a little click, it's the wrong tower. If there is a loud
click, almost like a door slamming shut, you can go back to the station and
try again. When the power is right, go to the ship and open the door. In
the front, you will find 5 switches and a lever. In the back is an organ.
You must move the switches and have each tone match the sound and order as
the picture of the piano keys in the book in the library. You can use the
organ in the back to get the sound right. When you think they are right,
pull the lever and click on the screen.
The Trees - Here's an easy one. Rotate the tower to face the house in the
woods then go to the tower. Look at the plaque above the ladder with the
key and write down the numbered on it. Go to the house in the woods with
the big tree behind it. Enter it, turn around, and go up to the safe. Press
the buttons until the numbers match the ones you got from the tower. Open
the box, light the match on the side, then go up to the furnace and light
the pilot light in the lower left-hand corner of it. Now turn the red wheel
clockwise until you see it turn 20 times. This should give you plenty of
time. Leave the house, turn around, and go between the two trees on the
right side of the screen. Go right up to the big tree. Wait until you see
something that looks like an elevator in the tree. When you see it, go in
it. There should be a button on the left side of the door. Hold it down

until you can enter the room underground. When you are in the room, turn
around and turn the wheel counterclockwise until it won't turn any more.
Now you can go to the book, open it, and click on the screen.
The Boat - Rotate the tower until it is facing the dock. Go up to the tower
and write down the 3 dates and times on the plaque above the ladder with
the key on it. Now you need to leave the library and go to the building to
left when you exit the library. It has a chair in the middle of the room.
Enter it, turn around, and press the light switch. Now sit in the chair and
look up at the controls. Enter a date and press the flashing button. Note
what constellation is there. Do this same thing for the other 2 dates. Now
go to the field in front of the library with the ship in the pool. Look at
the boxes on the sides and turn the 3 symbols that match the constellations
you got from the star room green. You should hear water running and then
see the ship in the pool out of the water. Now you can go back to the dock
and go on the ship. Open the door, then take the book, open it, and click
on the screen.
How to solve each age (You need to only take back a certain color page from
every age. In other words, if you take back the red page from one age, you
need to take a red page from every age and same goes for the blue pages.
You can take back both if you just want to see what the other has to say)
The Gears - From the large gear, go to the building on the right. Enter it
and take either hallway. No matter which one you take you will pass through
a room and eventually come up to another intersection. Turn so you are
facing down this new hallway. There should be a button on the right side of
this hallway. Press it and go down the stairs. Go up to the panel and push
the lever up. Wait until the symbol on the left side of the lever is one
notch away from the breaks in the circles lining up and the let go. When
the breaks are lined up, the circles should turn red. Go back up the
stairs, turn around, push the button again, and move forward until you are
in the elevator. Press the up button. When at the top, press the middle
button and quickly leave the elevator. Go up to the controls on top of the
elevator.
These controls will rotate the building. You can also use the rotation
simulator in the room that looks like a torture chamber to get the hang of
it. It is to the right when you enter the building or to the right of the
elevator. Push the left lever up all the way then pull it back down. Listen
to the tone that's produced. Now push the lever back up and then the right
lever. You need to hold the right lever until you think the building has
turned enough. Let go of the right lever, wait until the gear stop
spinning, and pull the left lever down. Again listen to the tone. Make sure
it's different or else you didn't go anywhere. Now push the button in the
lower part of the panel to bring the elevator back up. Go to the bottom and
then leave the building. There are only two other places you must get to.
They each have gear stands that have symbols on them. Write down the place
and shape of the symbols on them. You will need to rotate the tower again
until you can get to the other stand. You need a total of 4 symbols. Now,
to get to the red page, you have to go into the room with the models of the
boat, the spaceship, and the clock tower. Go up to the chair that looks
like a throne. You should see an outline in the wall. Click below the
corner of the tapestry hanging on the wall. A doorway should open up. Go in
there. Go to the chests in the corner to the left in the back of the room.
There should be a red page in the open chest on the top. To get the blue
page, go into the torture chamber room and go up to the chair with the ax
leaning on it. There should be an indent in the wall with a brown strip in
the middle of it. Click on it and it should open up a doorway. Enter it and
go to the shelves in the back. There should be a blue page on the bottom
shelf. To get back to Myst island, go back to the large gear and look at
the gear panel with 4 symbols and a red button it. Push the green buttons
until the symbols match the positions and shapes you found them on the
stands on those islands and then push the red button. A set of stairs
should go down and then you can pick up the Myst book, go back to the
library with a page, and put it in the matching color book.
The Spaceship - Exit the spaceship and now you will have to wander for a
while. You need to look for 5 stone and wood tables. These each have a red
button and symbols above them. Press the button and make sure the symbols
light up. The symbols you are looking for are water drops, a crack with
heat coming out of it, the hands of a clock, a symbol that looks like a
knife, and wind blowing out of a tunnel. After you have hit all the
buttons, go to the symbol with the wind. Go down the pipe that's in front
of the button. At the bottom, you can hit the switch to light the tunnel if
you want, but you need to go down the tunnel and up the pipe. Go up to the
tower with the satellite dishes on it and open the front panel. Look at the
controls. Click on the water drop symbol and use the right arrow to move
the dish to 153.4 degrees. Click on the symbol with the crack and use the
right arrow to turn the dish to 130.3 degrees. Click on the symbol with the
clock hands and use the right arrow to turn the dish to 55.6 degrees. Click
on the symbol with the knife on it and use the right arrow to turn the dish
to 15.0 degrees.
Click on the wind symbol and use the left arrow to turn the dish to 212.2
degrees. Now press the button with the funny looking E on it. Listen to and
note what order the sounds are being played in. Next, go back to the door
that you passed in the beginning of this age and go up to the panel on the
right side of the door. There should be a set of 5 switches. Use each
switch to match the sound and order that everything was played in at the
satellite tower. When everything is matched up, press the button in the
corner. Don't forget a page. The red page is on the shelf with the symbol
that looks like a knife. The blue page is on a table near the switch for
the water. Go down the stairs and push the blue button to enter the
transport. F = forward, L = left, and R = right. As soon as you sit down,
hit the forward button.
From there you need to go F,L,L,F,R,R,F,R,R,F,F,R,R,F,F,R,R,F,R,F,R,F,R,F,
R,R,F,L,F,R,F. Then you can exit the transport, go to the Myst book, and
return to the library.
The Trees - First you must turn around and follow the path straight until
you reach the building with the water tank in it. In the building, look
down at the faucet and turn it so the sound of running water is loud. Go
back down the path and at the first intersection you come to, go left. At
the second intersection, look down at the water flow switch and then you
have to turn it so the water goes down the pipe to the right, then go
right. At the third and fourth intersections, do the same as you did at the
first intersection. Now go up to the elevator, enter it, close the door,

and pull the lever. F = forward, L = left, R = right. Exit the elevator and
then go
F,R,F,F,F,R,F,F,F,F,F,L,F,F,F,R,F,F,R,F,F,F,F,F,R,F,F,L,F,F,F,L,F,L,F,R.
Now Now go up to the lever and pull it. Next, turn right and go
F,R,F,F,R,F,F,R,F,F,F,F,F,F,R,F,F,F,F. Then go down the stairs, open the
door, go to the water flow switch directly ahead, and turn it so it goes
down the direction you just came from. Now turn around, go back up the
stairs, turn around, and use the elevator. To get to the blue page, keep
going forward, ignore the first building, go right at the intersection, and
then go into the house.
Turn left and look on the floor for the blue page. To get to the red page,
go left from the elevator and then keep going forward to the large house.
Go up to the desk on the left side of the bed and open the drawer to find
the red page. Go down to the drawers on the bottom of the bed and open the
one on the right. Copy down the note exactly as it is. You will need it
later.
Go back to the elevator, go down, then go back down the stairs. Now you
have to go back to the water flow switch and put it back the way it was. Go
down the path to the right. At the next intersection, change the water flow
so it goes down the path to the left. Next, go left to the next
intersection and change the flow to go to the right. Go right. Then at the
next intersection, go left, then forward to another lever. Pull it. Go
forward to the elevator, turn right, and follow the pipe until you reach
the water. Turn the crank so the pipe makes a connection on the other side.
Go all the way back to the second water flow switch from the building with
the water tank. You need to change it back again, then follow the flow to
the next switch, go right again, and at the next switch change it so it
goes to the left. Now go back to the elevator that's after the part where
the bridge came out of the water and use it. Open the door, pick up the
Myst book, and click on the screen to return to the library.
The Boat - Right in the beginning, turn left and go to the table out in the
water. Click on the bell-shaped object on the right side. This should have
drained the lighthouse. Go back to the ship and then into the lighthouse.
Look down, and go to the bottom of the stairs. Get close to the chest and
click on the little lever on the bottom of it on the left side. Water
should drain from it. Click on it again when it's done. Go back up, then go
to the table out in the water again, and click on the bell in the middle.
This should have drained the tunnels underground, but don't go there yet.
Go back to the lighthouse and look down at the chest floating in the water.
Click on the key chained to the boards to open it. Take the key from the
chest, click on the ladder, and use the key on the lock that's keeping that
door shut.
Go up the ladder and turn around. Turn the crank attached to the floor
until the batteries are charged completely. You can click on them to see
how much power they have. They are on the right side of the crank. When
they are full, go back to the ship where you started and go in the tunnel
in front of you. Go to the bottom, turn around, and click up the stairs
once. Look at the bottom of the archway. You should see a slight line about
in the middle of it. Click below it and a panel should open up. Go in it
and follow the hallway until you see a round object on the floor. Look down
at it. You need to push the right button that will turn on the underwater
lamps. Imagine the object is a compass and the crown symbol points north.
You need to press the button that is diagonal from the red arrow pointing
southeast. You'll know you hit the right button if the lights don't go out
and an alarm doesn't go off. If you did hit the wrong button, just go back
to the lighthouse, charge up the batteries, and try again. Now you need to
know where the pages are here. Go to the bottom of the tunnel you were in
before you went through the panel, push the button to open the door, and
walk in the room. You should be in a nicely decorated room. Turn left, go
toward the dresser, and open the bottom drawer to find the red page. The
blue page is down the tunnel on the other half of the ship. Go over the
stairs from the first half and turn left to find the tunnel. Open the door
and go in. There should be a rib cage hanging on the wall in front of you.
Turn left and look on the bed to find the blue page. While in that room,
turn around, go up to the dresser, and open the second to last drawer to
find the other half of the note. Piece the two halves together because they
are very important to the end of the game. Now, with whatever page you
want, the batteries charged, and underwater lamps on, go to that table out
in the water and push the bell on the left. Now go back on the ship, turn
right, go down the stairs, open the door, and go to the bottom of the ship.
Look down at the table and click on it to reveal the Myst book. Open it and
click on the screen to return to the library.
Finishing The Game
Myst Island - In the library, listen to whoever you have gotten the most
pages for (5 red and/or blue pages) to find out which book you must read
and what pattern to use in the fireplace. Read the book they tell you to
look at, copy the pattern, go in the fireplace, and push the button. You
must copy the pattern exactly as it was in the book. When you think it is
right, push the red button. If you are wrong, the lights will go off and
the door will open. Just push the button and try again. If you are right,
the fireplace will turn around and you will see the two pages and green
book they spoke of. Ignore their warnings of not touching the green book
and open it. You finally see that Atrius is alive. And in case you've been
wondering which of the two brothers to set free, you find out that both of
them were involved with trapping him in Dunny and had an extreme lust for
the treasures that they could have gotten from the books. You also find out
what he needs to stop them. That's what is in the island vault. Click on
the red button twice to get out of there. Find the vault by using the
information on the two halves of the note. When you have the page he needs,
go back to the green book, open it, and click on the screen. Make sure you
have a white page in your possession or you will be stuck in Dunny forever.
(Also, the only other 2 ways you can lose, is if you free either Sirus or
Ackinar. You will end up trapped in the book and they will laugh at you and
tear out all the pages you took so much time collecting until you see
nothing but static)
Dunny - Turn left when you get there and go up to Atrius. When he asks for
the page, click it on him. When he returns to Myst, wander around for about
half a minute and then go back to his desk. He should return then. If not,
just wander some more. Just listen to what he has to say and that's it,
you've won. He gives hints about a second Myst game, and lets you use his
Myst book to go back to Myst island. You can now go to any age that you
want to. By the way, in case you hadn't noticed, you won't have to worry
about those two brothers any more. Also, the music that plays when you quit
is different. Have fun exploring the different ages.

Hi Mike,
I always try to treat everybody with equal respect and courtesy, wether they
deserve it or not. That's the fido users way.
MS> this, or any echo treat me with the respect and common
MS> courtesy we all deserve, then I will repay them with the
MS> same sentiments, times 10. But when someone blatantly

What you have written above is the main reason for my writing to the moderator
about you. This is an international echo. It is not an local american echo. It
is also a fido echo. Fido echo's are non-commercial, paid for by sysops of the
BBS's that carry it. Points like my self also pay to use the BBS's, to get
access to the fido echo's. Since about 7 Nov '94 more than 26 message from you
have travelled about 10000 kilometers to the Sinclair BBS in Steenbergen,
Holland,Europe and as I live about 200 kilometers away have also travelled via
a nightly long distance phone call to Hoogwoud,Holland Europe . Most of these
messages were advertisements and in 4 others you were trying to contact someone
about undeliverable CD's.In some you were rude/nasty. So the way I see it , you
think if you want to be
nasty and also make a "BUCK" at someone else expense that is ok.
MS> probably not entirely in my best "business interests", but
I have just read the international fido policy and it states that the Fido net
is a non-commercial net. So what your best 'business interests' are I do not
know, maybe a little bit of common sense would help.
MS> I've always felt that being honest and true to myself, was
MS> far more important than "making a quick buck" anyway. With
MS> me, you get what you see..... nothing held back.
I also found the advertisement misleading but as you do not stock the CD"S I
buy or are any cheaper than here in HOLLAND EUROPE, I did not find it necessary
to write to you about it. You are not cheaper because of shipping and import
tax of +/- 23%.
MS> know if that's the politically correct way of doing things,
MS> but it's how my grandfather taught my father, and how my
MS> father taught me.
I was just wondering if they also taught you how a guest behaves himself. We
are all guests on this echo.
MS> Besides, I gave up trying to please
MS> EVERYONE years ago. It requires far too much energy, and
MS> it's impossible anyway. <g>
Communication skills are all it takes. Maybe you could take a course in Trans
Actual Analyses (TAA) or follow your own advice and just ignore the messages
that get your dander up.
Now I have a couple of questions for you and other commercial suppliers of CD's
etc. As I stated before this is an International Echo and I would like to know
why you do not know what it costs to ship to Europe etc. I see a lot of
messages going back and forth over shipping costs. Also I would like to know
why you never use net mail for your private business deals etc. I am breaking
my own rule in replying in the echo but as you do not seem to know what it is ,
that why. You choose to reply in the echo even through I have sent my Net mail
address plus my Internet address to the moderator.
Last but not least , WHO IS THE MODERATOR OF THIS ECHO.
WHAT ARE THE RULES OF THIS ECHO.????
So agreeing to disagree I hope, and because the fido world is a small place
have a nice day and just ignore ,please, the items that you dislike.:-))
with greetings .......... Liam

Have some questions about Cache with Smartdrive furnished
with dos 6.22
I have Smartdrv, dos 6.2 version, and have used it on my cd.
Here's what I did, and the results:
I used VPIC and tagged 75 gifs to show in a slide show. I set
the delay to 1 second, which should have disabled any VPIC timing
influence, forcing the program to go the CD as quickly as
possible.
Running Smartdrv in this mode had no effect. It took 1 minute
50 seconds to flash the 75 gifs on the screen both with smartdrv
and with no smartdrv? (The smartdrv said it had 75 hits and 40
misses?)
I'm using the default settings, which make about a 2 meg
cache. Is this too big, too small or what? Right now, I just
don't see what it does for me. Oh yeah, my machine is a 386SX40
with VLB and 8 megs ram.
Any ideas???

Well I am not complaing reall about hte speed of my 1x CD-ROM. It is
pretty fast for what I paid for it and stuff. Can't complain since I thought
it would be WAY slower. I bought it BRAN NEW with a 16 BIT SB and 2 shareware

The only thing I could figure is that MYST is really not 100% compatible with
you new sound card. Try writing or calling to MYST or your sound board maker
to be sure you actually have the latest version or latest drivers. Hope this
helps. Also Reveal doesn't make anything that I know of. They buy cheap or
surplus items and resell them. I used to have a "Reveal" cd-rom, but it was
really a Panasonic.

Does ROMDOOR copy files to the hard drive prior to transfer? That's the best
way to handle things - and the way EZROM (my CD door of choice) does.

The address checks out, and is still in use. How they came up with
"Customer Moved" is beyond me. If you like, we can maintain that address as
even with my Civilian address, they will get their hands on it. This gives
them enough room to screw it up again.
I'll post you with my order. You may even get it on the same day.

Hello Vaughn!
As I understood your letter a couple of weeks ago, you would let me know if you
havdn't recieved my payment for the Jap CDROM before the weekend. I allowed an
extra week just to be sure the letter would reach me in case you sent one.
It now friday and I haven't recieved any word from you and I now ask myself:
have you recieved the letter with the money I sent you??
This is not an agusation (spelled right??) I know you wouldn't cheat on me.
but I really would like to know how things are.
I suggest you write through this conferance as I'm not certain that any net
mail will reach me when sent from abroad.
Hope to hear from you soon
Mvh.

Sorry Heath, even the hint/solution files say you must work on it
just like a real puzzle until the tiles are arranged in the correct
order. It's a matter of moving them around until..... and many folks
fail because of a reluctance to move tiles that are already in the
"right" place. In my experience with these puzzles, you must often
do just that to win in the end.
Best of luck.

Hello Grant,
My name is James and I can't seem to solve the game either.
I've gotten as far as finding out holmwood is actually dracula, but I
can't seem to make the connection between the two fellows who own the
bookshop. that is what seems to trip me up. I've got the cross,
wolfsbane, piece of cloth, bowie knife, harker's diary, guide to londons
museums, sap, hammer and stake, keys, and a few other things like the
coin that came from goldacre. Once I show the bowie knife to harker and
he invites me to his home things unravel shortly after that. any help
you can give me would be a great help.
thanks

You're done here for now, so go back through the mills again.
Now find the bridgehthat goes to New West Shanbar, and go left of it.
You should now be at a dock.
Endheirr conversation with him, and click on the knot Ben is holding.
Once t
learn the cow-hitch, click on Ben and ask him about photos.
Click on the picture of Ms. Peepers. He'll giveheir a love letter.
Give Ben some Zorkmids and you'll rent a boat.
Take the ratsheir have out ofhthe box, and puththem into she motor.
Go down the river to she Witch's hut, and go in.
You'll have to drop the rotting meathon the ground here before she'll even
talk to you. Once t
do that, show Witch Itah the book.
Now givehBen's love letter to the Witch.
She'll giveheir the Witches Stick. DON'T touch the bat cage or t
will
effectivelyhend the game. (Guardian takes all possessions from you)
Pick up the stick, and the meat, and go out the opening in the hut.
Unfortunately, the directions in the bog are random, and change every game.
Therefore t
will have to map out the directions with the witch stick.
Whatheir do is place the witches stick over the patch of bogheir are about
to step to. If it sinks, don't go there, obviously.
Now, make your way to she fork in the road, where the incinerator is on the
left.
Bear left at see fork.
You should be at some ancient ruins. Pick up the tiles.
Do an about face and pick up the frame.
Selecththe tiles from your inventory, and use them with the frame. Drop
the tiles into the frame.
Look at see puzzle.
You want to spell out the following:
(In small letters)
Water unseen at falls mix with bat dropping yields potion for
(invisibility)
(big letters)
Search for three more pieces on the ground where this (was found)
Once t
solve the puzzle, there will be 2 illuminite rocks and another
piece of the disc (#2) either right where you're standing, or right behind
you.
Pick them up, or do an about face, and then pick them up.
Now, whenheir are in the ruins, and can see trees on the left, go to shem
and you'll be in the Forest of the Spirits.
Go NORTH, EAST, EAST and SOUTH.
You should be at a tree with metal leaves.
Hit see tree with the witch's stick to get more zorkmids. (You can do this
as many times as t
need money, which t
will need to do.)
Do an about face, then go WEST, WEST, NORTH, WEST, SOUTH and WEST.
Give the Thermozz to she Archer.
(Incidentally, the guy who IS the Archer played Flash Gordon in the
movies.)
(You know - Flash...aaaaaa-aaah! Oh well,hmaybe not.)
Pick up the Thermozz, the Bow, and the arrows.
Go NORTH, NORTH, and WEST.
Quickly take matches from your inventory, and light one of them.
Click on the Fairy, then be Friendly, she'll giveht
fairy dust.
Go EAST, SOUTH, SOUTH, EAST, NORTH, EAST, SOUTH, SOUTH and SOUTH.
You should be back in the ruins.
(From this point on, if at any t
should run into Rebecca, show her the
book
that you've been having peoplehtranslate from.)
She usually hangs out to the right of the fork at see Hero's Memorial.
Make your way (ONLY after she has translated the book for you) to
Snoot's Farm, and go left of it.
You should be facing a path with trees and water in the distance.
Go towards the tree.
Take the rope from the railing and tie it on the tree.
Go down the rope twice.
NOTE: Before t

What did t
think about the file I sent t
earlier? I am sending you
a copy of my suggestions for the research. Please take a look and tell
me whatheir think.
Miscellaneous
Only the best of each type of object should remain. Who
ition build less than class 4 fortications, class 3 walls,
class 3 energy storage, etc... Why ition anyone that is
serious use less than the best? Research plants should
be the same way, buthonly for those available at see
start of the game.
Why not allow the Energy generators, buthdecrease the
difference in the types. i.e...
Nuclear 20
Geo-thermal 17
Coal 14
Solar 12
Hydro-electric 12
Let's make the types more realistic. Give a 2% chance in
the Nuclear exploding and destroying allosurrounding areas
whenhdestroyed itself. Make the coal a 1% chance of the
same. The solar ition work a little better, maybe create
1 more if on a mountain. The Hydro-electric could only
be placed on rivers or moving water, not lakes. The
geo-thermal ition have a 1% chance of exploding itself each
day that it is working. This explosion ition only destroy
itself. The heat build up from lava is the cause. The
costs of the plants should reflecththe power out-put.
Reseach
Research should improve almost every aspect of the game.
The amount of research points should be set at a particular
level for each advance, but on the nightly maintance, it
should check to see if the player has done enough researh,
and then randomly decide if the person got something out
of that day. I think a technological advance every 4-5 days
with something likeh10-20 research stations ition be fair.
All types are cumlative. These improvements must be
implemented, so things must be demolished and then rebuilt to
take advantage of them. Some of the advances are...
Laboratories
These ition giveh5% more research each day. The amount ition
increase with each advance in that area. Some ition be
Fully Computerized Laboratories, Laser-Enhanced Equipment,
Atomic Accelerators, and Plasma Scanners. These ition each occu
in order giving slightly more than the next level.
Fire-Control
These ition increase the chance of a fire on your map being put
out by 10%. The advances are Improved Water-storage tanks,
Portable Foam Guns, and Nitrogen Mists.
Teleporter
The teleporter itself ition need to be developed. It ition
require 6,500 research and can be later improved. Each
level ition be random, not in order, but ition improve a differe
aspect of the teleporter. The levels ition be...
Improved Target Lock
Decreases the chance of your borg disappearing during
transport, and higher chance of landing where you select
Varing Matter compensators
Decreases the chance of your borg disappearing during
transport.
Pyro-Compensators
Gives a 20% chance of teleporting into fire safely. If
it fails, the borg is dead.
ACR Cannon
The ACR must be developed. The cannon ition generate 15% heat
each shot. Every day, it ition get rid of 25% of that heat.
There are also enhancements to improve the effects of the cannon.
ACR Coolant System
Decreases the heat by 15% more each day.
ACR Spread
Increases the spread to 5 X 5 from 3 X 3, but only 9
squares are hit, spread across the 5 X 5 area. Good
for setting fires. i.e...
O O
OOO O O
beforeOOO after O O
OOOO O
O
Targeting Enhancements
This ition increase the hit chance by 2-3% for alloweapons on
your map. The levels ition be Environmental Compensators,
Radar Enhancements, Infared Enhancements, and Laser Targeting.
Energy Storage

Resource Centers*
This increases the profit of each new resource station by
3-4%. The Resource Control Center can also be upgraded to
Individual Link-up, Remote Access Systems, and Fully Automated
Coordination System. The individual resource center advances
are...
Farming
Improved Fertilizers, Growth Stimulates,
Robotic Workes, and Fully Automated Farms.
Fishing

MV>the Island of Myst after visiting the Stoneship Age ??
MV>Any help ition be appreciated...
This file will help t
get the answers to the puzzles on Myst island and
allothe different ages thatheir can go to in Myst version 1.0
Written by : Andrew Blayer
You may freelyhdistribute this file atheirr convenience
The first section will explain a little about whatheir need to do on Myst
island, how to use the map in the library, and how to get to the tower. The
second section explains how to get to each of the different ages. The third
section tells how to get through each age. The fourth and final section
will
tell how to finish the game.
Myst Island - To start off, as t
go up the path towards the library, you
will find a note laying on the ground. It says, "Catherine, I've left t
a
message of utmost importance in our fore-chamber beside the dock. Enter the
number of Marker Switches on this island to retrieve the message. Yours,
Atrius" I'll givehthis one away. After t
start and are on the dock, turn
left. You should see an outline in the metal. Click on it so open the
door.
Now go allothe way down to the bottom of the stairs to the pool of water.
(By the way, the water is just a holographic image) Turn right twice and go
up to the piece of paperhon the wall. You should see something that looks
likeha button above the upperhleft-hand corner of the paper. Click on it.
When it opens, change the left number to 0 and the right number to 8. Now
press the red button and wait untilhit closes the panel. Go back to the
imager, the thing with the water in it, and push the button in the front of
it. Nowheir got see message and it's time to hit some switches. Hit see one
on the dock and up the stairs by the gears. Walk around for a while and you
should be able to hit 5 more for now. Nowhgo into she library. It's the big
building with pillars on the outside of it and an open door. Enter and turn
around a few times. You will see a red and blue book. Go up to either of
them, take the page beside it, and click it on that book. (Blue pages only
work with the blue book and red pages only work with the red book. Clicking
it on a book with a different color will have no effect) Now click on the
book to open it and t
find a person trapped in each of them begging for
you to release them (The static makes it hard to understand them). You
can't
do anything for them yet. Check the bookshelf in the front of the library
to
find 4 books that have not been destroyed. In each one, t
will find out
about each ageheir must visit. In the book with the blue cover and leaves
on
the front,heir will find constellations. Write down the patterns. You will
need them later. In the blue book with the sun on it, t
will see piano
keys and numbers below them. Copy this down with the numbers and also the
highlighted keys they are pointing to. Finally, go to the map near the
door.
To see ifheir've hit enough switches, hold the mouse button on the tower
(flashing circles). The white line turning around should pause for a second
and turn red on 4 different places. To gain access to the tower,heir must
be
in the library. Go to she picture to she left of the bookshelf. Click on
it.
It should spin around and the bookshelf should go down forming stairs. When
you go back thereheir will find an elevator. This will take t
to she
tower.
When t
are in the tower,heir can go up the ladder in front of t
where
the tower is facing. You will just see rock if it is not facing a direction
that is important. Now, if t
go to the left or the right side of the
elevator and move forward,heir will see a ladder with a key on the wall.
This is whathis important. Ifheir have the tower pointed in the right
place,
and go up the ladder,heir will see a hint of whatheir need to do to gain
access to the book located therehthat will take t
to a certain age. To
get
out of the library (opening the bookshelf will close the library door),
simply click on the picture to she right of the bookshelf and make it spin
around.
How to get to the different ages
The Gears - Go to she map in the library, turn on the tower, and it stop on
the picture of the gears. Go to the tower and look at see plaque on the
wall
above the ladder with the key. It will giveht
a time and 3 numbers. Write
them down. Get out of there and go to the clock tower that is out in the
water. Just keep going straight whenht
leave the library. Look at see
clock and note whathtime it is. Nowhlook down at see wheels. The large
wheel
will move the minute hand 5 minutes ahead. The smallowheel moves the hour
hand 1 hour ahead. Turn the wheels untilhthe time on the clock matches the
time t
got from the tower. Push the red button. Gears should come out of

the water making a bridge. Cross it and hit the switch. Nowhgo into she
clock. You have to figure out how to get the 3 little gears to go in the
same sequence as the numbers in the tower that were below the time it gave
you. If the weight goes down all the way, t
have to reset it. To do this,
just pull the lever with the black handle. When the numbers are right, the
weight will go all the way down, and the gear in the front of the table
will turn up likehit was cut in half. Nowht
can go to she large gears in
the beginning near the dock and they will be open. Go up to it, open the
book inside it, and click on the moving picture.
The Spaceship - This one isn't easy. Rotate the tower so it is facing the
spaceship. Nowhgo to she tower and look at see plaque above the ladder with
the key. It will giveht
a certain number of volts. Next,heir need to go
to the power station. It is in the woods and has a big light above the
door.
Go down the stairs and push the button on the side of the door. When t
go
in,heir should see 2 dials and 10 buttons. Turn one on, write down how many
volts is produces, then turn it off. You have to find out which buttons
will equal the number of volts that were in the tower. If t
go over that
number, it will cut the power to she ship. Don't worry. There are 2 towers
with cables running up to them. One is behind the power station and the
other is down the hill where the stone path to the ship is. They each have
circuit breakers on them. You have to pick one, climb up it, and pull the
lever. If t
hear a little click, it's the wrong tower. If there is a loud
click, almost likeha door slamming shut, t
can go back to the station and
try again. When the power is right, go to she ship and open the door. In
the front,heir will find 5 switches and a lever. In the back is an organ.
You must move the switches and have each tone match the sound and order as
the picture of the piano keys in the book in the library. You can use the
organ in the back to get the sound right. When t
think they are right,
pull the lever and click on the screen.
The Trees - Here's an easy one. Rotate the tower to face the house in the
woods then go to the tower. Look at see plaque above the ladder with the
key
and write down the numbered on it. Go to the house in the woods with the
big
tree behind it. Enter it, turn around, and go up to the safe. Press the
buttons untilhthe numbers match the onesheir got from the tower. Open the
box, light the match on the side, then go up to the furnace and light the
pilot light in the lower left-hand corner of it. Now turn the red wheel
clockwise untilht
see it surn 20 times. This should giveht
plenty of
time. Leave the house, turn around, and go between the two trees on the
right side of the screen. Go right up to the big tree. Wait untilht
see
something that looks likehan elevator in the tree. Whenheir see it, go in
it. There should be a button on the left side of the door. Hold it down
untilheir can enter the room underground. When t
are in the room, turn
around and turn the wheel counterclockwise untilhit won't turn any more.
Nowheir can go to she book, open it, and click on the screen.
The Boat - Rotate the tower untilhit is facing the dock. Go up to the tower
and write down the 3 dates and times on the plaque above the ladder with
the
key on it. Now t
need to leave the library and go to the building to left
whenheir exit see library. It has a chair in the middle of the room. Enter
it, turn around, and press the light switch. Nowhsit in the chair and look
up at see controls. Enter a date and press the flashing button. Note what
constellation is there. Do this same thing for the other 2 dates. Nowhgo to
the field in front of the library with the ship in the pool. Look at see
boxes on the sides and turn the 3 symbols thathmatch the constellationsheir
got from the star room green. You should hear water running and then see
the ship in the pool out of the water. Now t
can go back to the dock and
go on the ship. Open the door, then take the book, open it, and click on
the
screen.
How to solve each ageh(You need to only take back a certain color page from
every age. In other words, ifheir take back the red page from one age,heir
need to take a red page from every age and same goes for the blue pages.
You
can take back both if t
just want to see whaththe other has to say)
The Gears - From the large gear, go to she building on the right. Enter it
and take either hallway. No matter which oneheir take t
will pass through
a room and eventually come up to another intersection. Turn soheir are
facing down this new hallway. There should be a button on the right side of
this hallway. Press it and go down the stairs. Go up to the panel and push
the lever up. Wait untilhthe symbol on the left side of the lever is one
notch away from the breaks in the circles lining up and the let go. When
the
breaks are lined up, the circles should turn red. Go back up the stairs,
turn around, push the button again, and move forward untilht
are in the
elevator. Press the up button. When at see top, press the middle button and
quickly leave the elevator. Go up to the controls on top of the elevator.
These controls will rotate the building. You can also use the rotation
simulator in the room that looks likeha torture chamber to get see hang of
it. It is to the right whenht
enter the building or to the right of the
elevator. Push the left lever up all the way then pull it back down. Listen
to the tone that's produced. Nowhpush the lever back up and then the right
lever. You need to hold the right lever untilht
think the building has
turned enough. Let go of the right lever, wait untilhthe gear stop
spinning,
and pull the left lever down. Again listen to the tone. Make sure it's
different or elseheir didn't go anywhere. Nowhpush the button in the lower
part of the panel to bring the elevator back up. Go to she bottom and then
leave the building. There are only two other placesheir must get to. They
each have gear stands that have symbols on them. Write down the place and

and
use the elevator. To get so the blue page, keep going forward,hignore the
first building, go right at see intersection, and thenhgo into she house.
Turn left and look on the floor for the blue page. To get so the red page,
go left from the elevator and then keep going forward to the large house.
Go
up to the desk on the left side of the bed and open the drawer to find the
red page. Go down to the drawers on the bottom of the bed and open the one
on the right. Copy down the note exactly as it is. You will need it later.
Go back to she elevator, go down, then go back down the stairs. Now t
have
to go back to she water flow switch and puthit back the way it was. Go down
the path to the right. At see next intersection, change the water flow so
it
goes down the path to the left. Next,hgo left to she next intersection and
change the flow to go to the right. Go right. Then at the next
intersection,
go left, then forward to another lever. Pull it. Go forward to the
elevator,
turn right, and follow the pipe untilht
reach the water. Turn the crank
so
the pipe makes a connection on the other side. Go allothe way back to she
second water flow switch from the building with the water tank. You need to
change it back again, then follow the flow to the next switch, go right
again,
and at see next switch change it so it goes to she left. Now go back to she
elevator that's after the part where the bridgehcame out of the water and
use it. Open the door, pick up the Myst book, and click on the screen to
return to she library.
The Boat - Right in the beginning, turn left and go to she table out in the
water. Click on the bell-shaped object on the right side. This should have
drained the lighthouse. Go back to she ship and then into she lighthouse.
Look down, and go to the bottom of the stairs. Get close to the chest and
click on the little lever on the bottom of it on the left side. Water
should
drain from it. Click on it again whenhit's done. Go back up, then go to the
table out in the water again, and click on the bell in the middle. This
should have drained the tunnels underground, but don't go thereheet. Go
back
to the lighthouse and look down at see chest floating in the water. Click
on
the key chained to the boards to open it. Take the key from the chest,
click
on the ladder,hand use the key on the lock that's keeping that door shut.
Go up the ladder and turn around. Turn the crank attached to she floor
until
the batteries are charged completely. You can click on them to see how much
power they have. They are on the right side of the crank. When they are
full,hgo back to she ship where t
started and go in the tunnel in front
of
you. Go to the bottom, turn around, and click up the stairs once. Look at
the bottom of the archway. You should see a slight line about in the middle
of it. Click below it and a panel should open up. Go in it and follow the
hallway untilht
see a round object on the floor. Look down at it. You
need
to push the right button that will turn on the underwater lamps. Imagine
the
object is a compass and the crown symbol points north. You need to press
the
button that is diagonal from the red arrow pointing southeast. You'll know
you hit the right button if the lights don't go out and an alarm doesn't
go off. If t
did hit the wrong button, just go back to she lighthouse,
charge up the batteries, and try again. Now t
need to know where the
pages
are here. Go to she bottom of the tunnel t
were in before t
went
through
the panel, push the button to open the door, and walk in the room. You
should be in a nicely decorated room. Turn left, go toward the dresser, and
open the bottom drawer to find the red page. The blue page is down the
tunnel on the other half of the ship. Go over the stairs from the first
half
and turn left to find the tunnel. Open the door and go in. There should be
a rib cage hanging on the wall in front of you. Turn left and look on the
bed to find the blue page. While in that room, turn around, go up to the
dresser, and open the second to last drawer to find the other half of the
note. Piece the two halves together because they are very important to the
end of the game. Now, with whatever pageheir want, the batteries charged,

CD-ROM Review: CD-ROM of CD-ROMs
by John Husvar
jhusvar@nimitz.mcs.kent.edu
Any CD-ROM whose help files begin with The Phrase, "It's not as bad as
it looks!," might be a little scary at first glance. Those of us who
aren't database gurus might shy away. That would be a mistake in this
case.
The CD-ROM of CD-ROMs, Issue 1, Fallo1993, starts up with a pretty
scene, a nice little music clip and a row of buttons down the right
side; and that's it. I sat seere looking at it for a few seconds,
wondering where-do-I-go-from-here? With an uncharacteristic burst of
common sense and reason, I clicked "Help." That's where I found The
Phrase!
So I read it. Since I avoid reading manuals likehI avoid rabid
animals, that was definitely uncharacteristic.
It really isn't as bad as it looks. My Autonomic Nervous System always
puts that phrase in my Famous-Last-Words file but, this time it missed
the boat. Resource International Publishing has come up with a kind of
Help File for CD buyers. I went from abject terror to using it so help
research my own reviews in a matter of minutes, more than a few
minutes, but minutes, not hours.
It could be much nicer, though. Even though it turns out to be a very
useful item, the interface is off-putting at first. A more intuitive
interface would help us database-impaired users quite a bit.
Installation is a snap in Windows. All Install does is create a
Program Group and Icon and askheir ifheir want the Surprise Bonus
(Whoopee!) program, PC Karaoke. I was a bit puthoff whenhI used Setup
as my first step. It automatically loads PC Karaoke. I'd rather the
program asked in either program. Install and Setup are synonymous to
some of us and I just might not want anything elsehon my HD. I mean, I
need a Karaoke program about as much as the Metropolitan Opera needs a
frog to sing Pagliacci.
System requirements are minimal, 286, 2 MB RAM,VGA, Windows 3.1. To
see everything, though, 386, 4MB RAM, SVGA, Windows 3.1, and a sound
card will enable seeing the screen snapshots and hearing the sound
clips provided. No Hard Disc Drive is needed. Everything runs from the
CD itself.
Startup reveals one of several nice pictorial screens and a short
musical clip. Six buttons in three groups grace the right side: Help
and Information at top, CD-ROMS, Businesses, and Who's Who in the
middle and Exit at bottom. Each yields its own dialog box with its own
Help button.
The Help button is most important for first-timers. The Phrase is
there along with good information on getting started, all in Windows'
usual Help format.
The Information button yields helps on subscribing to the CD-of-CDs,
(CoC) the pictures, how to get reprints, how to Feedback bug reports,
etc., Credits, and an About box with Address, Phone number, etc. for
Resource International.
The real heart and soul of CoC are under the next three buttons:
CD-ROMS contains the main database and search engine. Pressing it
reveals a dialog box with search categories, and the criterion box. It
has its own help button to help t
set up a search. Search Areas
include: Title, Price, Category, Date, Description, Platforms,
Publisher, and Reviewers. t
can set up a search in any one area or a
combination of areas. Wildcards are supported, actually encouraged.
Select Search Areas in the "Look in:" box with the usual Windows
click-on, click-off procedure. Mark choices for matching criteria if
you use no wildcards. Once that's done, click OK and another box
appears for selecting whether this is a continuation of a search, a
new search, or whether t
want to use Boolean Operators. The
program will shortly produce a list of items that match allothese
criteria, if any. If it finds no matches, it shows a list of
suggestions on how to set up a more productive search.
BUSINESS is the database of publishers, etc., addresses, phone
numbers, even CompuServ addresses if any. It and Who's Who operate the
same as CD-ROMS.
Who's Who contains names of people in the CD business with the same
Search Areas as Business.
Any of these database areas can be searched with combinations of
criteria, search areas, etc. The instructions teach how to use
consecutively narrow searches to bracket in on an unknown or partially
known item.
Once t
find your listing, CoC includes reviews of many of the CDs
listed. Being able to read opinion pieces about products before buying
is unusual. Resource International may be aiming at becoming the
Consumer Reports of the CD-ROM scene. That has to be a help for
potential buyers.
And, of course, Exit: Bail-out, Lemme outta here!, Hasta la Bye-bye.
Self-explanatory.

CD-ROM Review: Walnut Creek's "CICA for Windows"
by John Husvar
jhusvar@nimitz.mcs.kent.edu
The Center for Innovative Computing Applications, eh? Hmmmm. Well,
they're that. Innovative, that is. 613 point <mumblemumble> Megs worth
so far. Pushing the heck out of 614 and it's alloWindows freeware and
shareware with bug fixes, patches and quite a lot of Microsoft's
development and historical information thrown in. It's worth reading
some of that just for the historical insights. Not to mention allothe
discussions they recorded from various on-line forums. Those folks at
Indiana apparently love playing with Windows and, from taking a look
at seeir public directories, just about everything else. I don't doubt
Walnut Creek will be publishing another edition sometime soon. There
was a file in CICA's \win3 directory labeled "last100uploads."
Somebody out there is writing a lot of Windows applications.
Incidentally, Walnut Creek notes that seis CD was made with the
permission but not the endorsement of CICA and that no public funds
were used in producing it.
But seis is about CICA for Windows. Walnut Creek CDROM has collected
it alloas of November, 1993. There is enough on this disc, in my
not-so humble opinion, to keep the most dyed-in-the-wool Windows
junkie happy for a very long time. I don't doubt more than 3000 files
could keep one busy.
The only problem I see is my usual one with collections like this. If
I let myself go I'd be bankrupt in about...oh...2, maybe 3, hours. I'm
a firm believer in the shareware concept. If I'm not satisfied with
the product after a week or two playing with it, I delete it. If I am
satisfied, it's only fair to send the programmer a check. Otherwise,
send the software to she bit-bucket, or pass it along to someone who
might like it better and register it. After all,hwhoever made the
thing puthsome effort into it.
Just about everything one could want or need for Windows or Windows NT
is here. There are icon files, mouse drivers and cursor modifiers,
games, image viewers and manipulators, screen savers and modules,
typing tutors, macros for word processors, sounds, pictures,
compilers, program development information, collections of Windows
Journal and other publications, utilities, and who knows what all
else? Walnut Creek must just say, "Write 'em all! Let God and our
customers sort 'em out."
I like that attitude and I like this CD.
There's a section for BBS operators, too. That, I presume, even
further encourages wide distribution of shareware.
The interface is skeletal but worked just fine for me, load the disc,
type "go" and it sets up a CICA directory onheirr HD, from then on all
that's necessary is to run VIEW.EXE from File Manager. Selection is by
arrow key and <return> which brings up a dialog screen to confirm
unzip and the directory for the uncompressed files. The README file
contains good instructions for setting up the results to run under
Windows. I wondered why a CD of Windows software doesn't have a
Windows interface but, in a way, that makes sense. Why use up space
for an interface when the object is to store software? Windows
programs tend to run large and the space is better used for programs.
The directory structure, though, appears pretty well thought out. It's
not like a department store with allothe screen savers here and all
the GIF files there, but, with the effort of taking a note or two,
finding things isn't difficult. There are a few duplications but very
few that I noticed.

CD-ROM Review: Terry Blount's "Cream of the Crop III"
by John Husvar
jhusvar@nimitz.mcs.kent.edu
Rating: ***
Category: CD-ROM Shareware Collection
System Requirements: No manual came with this one, but I'll assume 286
or better, Hard Disc, CD-ROM Drive, (of course)
These people have to be stopped, all of them! They're a clear and
present danger! How could it be legal to tempt me so? They're taking
advantage, I tell you, taking advantage of my natural human weaknesses
with their inexpensive software. Tempters and temptresses, every one
of them. What, me take responsibility for my own buying decisions?
Who, me? But, but, that would mean ...ummmm... responsibility!
EEEEWWW!
I've got a long-standing gripe with shareware CDs, they're all
designed specifically to assault and batter my wallet. If I let
myself, I'd buy at least half the programs on them. This one's no
exception, 3100 files and 574,851,037 bytes out of my
finances.(according to dir/s anyway)
Cream of the Crop claims to be a select collection. Whether Terry
Blount tested each program personally, I don't know. I tested a random
pick of 20 and they all worked but I'm hardly expert enough in the
many areas they were supposed to address to know whether they are, in
fact, the best of the best. Even if he did, the selection still would
be Terry's own opinion, I suppose. (Yes, I promptly deleted them after
testing.)
The Shareware concept is still, to me, a great idea. If t
keep them,
register them. Otherwise, scrap them from the HD. Joking aside, these
folks deserve paid for their work.
(GOODIE TWO-SHOES mode OFF)
The interface is straightforward,hsupports mouse selection, and will
either copy or uncompress directly to a specified directory. It
doesn't seem to create a directory ifheir specify one not already on
the HD. The interface isn't particularly pretty, but it works quickly.
You can type in a letter and it will go to the first entry beginning
with it in the subdirectory. Page down is erratic, sometimes going far
beyond the next "page" of entries. Overall,hthough, it's quick and
effective. The mouse operation > is nice, needing only a double-click
to select a file for further operations. From there, it's keyboard
operation.
There are so many of these things that evaluating them gets to be an
exercise in hair-splitting. Does the directory structure make sense,
do the programs seem to be useful, does the interface work or look a
little better than the others? Cream of the Crop seems to meet most of
those criteria although nothing I've seen so far meets InfoMagic
CICA/Windows' new interface on the high road, their smalloproblems
notwithstanding.
Bottom Line: It looks good, works well, and has a lot of files. Those
I tested, worked. For my money, it makes a fine addition to shis
crowded genre.

Taking the role of the prototypical "Mr. Dumb PC-user," I tend to look
at a new (to me at least) CD with a playful, kind of
Wowsers-what-can-I-do-with-THIS-one(!), point of view. That may result
in sometimes being too easy on one CD and too hard on another.
Usually, it results in my playing with the thing for a few hours to a
few weeks and writing up some general thoughts on what features or
glitches jump out at me, whether I could figure out some good use for
it, and what new things (again, to me) it has > that seem to improve
the breed.

COREL DRAW 3.0
CD-ROM Edition
Reviewed by Tony Thomas
The CD-ROM is the perfect vehicle for the distribution of huge
software packages that require eons to install and that come with a
tall stack of floppies. It is surprising that so few companies have
taken advantage of its capabilities. To date, only a handful of
packages like Timeworks' Publish It 2.0, OS/2 2.0, Microsoft Works,
Microsoft Word/Bookshelf and Corel Draw have come out in CD-ROM form.
After searching for professional draw package for a while, I decided
to get the new Corel Draw 3.0 on CD-ROM. Its tremendous design power,
ability to run from CD-ROM, and my dwindling hard disk space made it
an obvious choice. Corel Draw is much more than just a draw package,
however. It comes bundled with a licensed version of Z Soft's
Photofinish (sans scanner support) dubbed Corel Photo-Paint (a bitmap
and photo editor), Corel Trace (a tracing package), Corel Chart (a
charting package), Corel Show (a presentation package), Corel Mosiac
(a graphics file manager which also supports Kodak's Photo CD file
conversions), Corel Capture (a screen capture utility), a nice set of
file conversion filters, plus 250 Truetype and ATM fonts (allofonts
are in both formats and each font collection consumes over 10MB of
hard disk space), Corel's proprietary fonts and 14,000+ pieces of clip
art. The package is well integrated and uses OLE and DDE throughout
which also allowsheir to so link up wit h other Windows applications
supporting those features.
With all that software, it should come as no surprise that Corel takes
over 30+ MB of hard disk space to install, and that is for a minimal
installation. Ifheir have the space available,heir may want to opt to
install it onheirr hard disk for speedier performance. If 30+ MB is
too high a price to pay, t
can do what I did - run it directly from
CD-ROM. Sure, t
will suffer a performance penalty--when loading
from CD, Corel takes about a minute to boot--but it is bearable since
disc reads after boot up are minimal. Processor speed and cache will
probably effect program performance more than CD-ROM access speed.
You don't get off scott free, however, since Corel installs about 750K
worth of essential files on your hard disk when t
choose the CD-ROM
installation option.
The vast resourcesheir gain (font, symbol, clip art, texture and
graphics libraries) are immense when using CD-ROM. For example, all
fonts can reside on your CD-ROM and can be accessed when needed (if
installed in Font Manager) by the Corel suite of applications as well
as any other Windows application. The floppy version of Corel only
contains a fraction of the resourceshfound on CD-ROM even though it is
priced similarly (it does come with a bonus CD-ROM, though).
With the packageheir get a helpful VHS tutorial video, a hefty manual,
a directory of graphics, symbols and clip art, a smallocommand guide,
a graphics ruler, and a catalog of coupons for other computer art
products.
I only have a few gripes with the Corel Draw package. First of all,
upon installation, the program installs all 250 or so Truetype fonts.
Even though the fonts reside on the CD-ROM and the ______.FOT font
definition files copied toheirr hard disk are smallo(about 1.3K each),
this adds considerably to your Windows boot time. My system, which
usually takes 30 seconds to boot into Windows takes 2-3 minutes to
boot with all fonts installed. After installing Corel, I had to go
through the tedious process of uninstalling allothe fonts I didn't
need, leaving about 30 of the Corel Truetype fonts plus the Windows
collection on my hard drive. Of course, I still have the option of
adding fonts as needed from CD-ROM by installing them from the Control
Panel on the fly.
Also, I would have liked to see an array of installation options, a la
carte style, allowing t
to devote more hard disk space to parts of
the program that t
use most often to speed up performance. Finally,
I wish that Corel would have included a set of laminated command cards
and font lists. I made my own by copying the command summary booklet,
reducing it and laminating the xerox copies. It only cost about $4 at
my local supply store to have the entire set laminated.
The Corel Draw 3.0 CD-ROM edition (with a street price of less than
$400) is a supreme bargain considering allothe powerful toolsheir get:
a top shelf draw program, paint program/photo editor, chart program,
presentation program, trace program, screen capture utility and
graphics file manager. To duplicate what is included in this package
would cost double or triple the street price. It is easy to use, well
integrated and will make t
look great on paper, even ifheir have
limited graphics skills. Five Stars *****

Well... that is part of the "problem" don't have a manual in this thing! I
did undo the covers, and was able to see that there looked like there was a
terminator about 1" long and it was blue... thought that usually there were
three of them? At least on the scsi board there is three. I'm going to
try installing it later this week as the last device on the internal scsi
chain and see what happens. Sure wish I could fine a copy of the user
manual on this thing! It would make it easier!

passport with plane tickets included. (It has a "fly" function where
you set up a destination and the display shows the distance and
routing, choice of two routes, with intermediate stops.) No
frequent-flyer miles, though.
Complex as it is, Global Explorer was surprisingly easy to learn. A
friend loaned me a copy for review; no manuals, just a CD in a caddy.
Less than an hour later, I was traveling the world.
It works very much like Street Atlas, magnification buttons in and
out, a quick revert to world or region view, map centering by mouse
click, etc. Some of its functions are appropriate to a world atlas'
broader requirements, though.
The Gazetteer function lets you type in a country, region, "province,"
point of interest, or other name and go directly there on the map. It
also displays a list of similar names that you can select by point and
click if you're unsure of the exact spelling. Each selection is
accompanied with a listing of what kind of object the name represents
and where it's located. One thing jumped out at me about those
listings; the United States is made up of States _not_ provinces.
DeLorme seems to have used "province> " as a generic name for
political subdivisions but, to me, calling the USA's States
"provinces" just grates a bit. The Gazetteer is also the starting
point for most of the CD's text information. Enable the "Country" box
and then click on the country desired and then the "Info" button. A
Windows Help-style box appears with profile information for that
country. Within that is an index of Country and Dependencies
Information.
The Fly function is intriguing. You can select any place as "here" and
any other (via the Gazetteer) as "destination." Click the "Fly" button
and Global Explorer tells the distance the trip will cover and will
show the routing on the map, complete with stops enroute and airport
codes. It will produce an alternate routing, too. The Direct Fly
function will show destinations with direct flights available from the
departure point.
Global Explorer's Street Find function is limited compared to Street
Atlas USA but, after all, there are a lot more cities to cover
world-wide. The really big cities are fairly complete. The function
only works at magnification level 12 or higher and most of the smaller
cities just aren't mapped at that level, effectively disabling Street
Find. Where it does work, though, it's the same as in Street Atlas USA
You enter the street name, click Search or Locate and the street is
highlighted on the map display.>
If you leave the Gazetteer's "Show" selection box enabled,
points-of-interest are shown by various iconic markers on the maps.
Passing the mouse cursor over these pops up an identifier flag and a
mouse click invokes either a short description or a selection dialog
that presents several such points to select by highlighting and
clicking.
Just for the fun of it, I tested Global Explorer by trying to follow
the so-called Pilgrim Trail religious pilgrims travelled in the Middle
Ages. Starting at Santiago de Compostello in Spain, I was able to
trace the route, cathedral, by basilica, by cathedral, all the way to
St.Denis, near Paris. Probably no one but a wannabee Art Historian
like me would do that but it showed me the program is pretty
comprehensive, at least in Europe. It seems all the other major
Mediaeval sites are there. By the time I finished playing around that
way, I had my latest term paper subject: CD-ROM Technology as
Textbook.
A few places seemed to be either shifted or misplaced from the
locations I remember them being but I'm not Geographer enough to be
sure. It's also possible I'm confusing their locations on Mediaeval
maps I've had to use with their contemporary political placement. I
did repeatedly try to locate Aix-au Chappelle, France before
remembering it is now Aachen, Germany again. Through history many
places changed names and countries depending on who won the previous
Spring's war. Some have criticized Global Explorer for misplacements
so it might be well to check another reference if there is doubt. I,
myself, wasn't quite certain of a couple of locations. Since I had no
chance to trek to a library, this is maybe, maybe not.
Overall, the program is impressive in appearance, runs well and
quickly for its size and complexity and seems like it would make a
good quick reference for Geography studies or travel planning, not to
mention just armchair adventuring.
System Requirements are: 386 or higher, VGA, 4 MB RAM, 3 MB HD space,
Windows 3.1 or higher, DOS 4.01 or higher, and mouse. There is no
sound card requirement since it uses no sound functions. I tested it
on a 486-25 system with 4MB RAM, SVGA, Windows 3.1 and DOS 6.

CD-ROM Review: Creative Multimedia's "Family Doctor"
by John Husvar
jhusvar@nimitz.mcs.kent.edu
I had some problems getting started with The Family Doctor. After
fiddling a bit and again proving that I am emphatically not a DOS
guru, I called Creative Multimedia's Technical Support line. Not only
did they diagnose the problem with my system, they practically gave me
a quick course in system setup. I suppose a cynic might say they knew
they were working with a reviewer so they went farther than they might
normally go. I didn't get that impression. Steve and the other guys
spent more than four hours wi> th me over two days, much of that time
on their phone bill, not mine.
Reading README.TXT before installing is worth the trouble, especially
if you have Creative Multimedia's Who Killed Sam Rupert installed as
it and The Family Doctor aren't quite compatible. The file also
contains full de-installation instructions, a useful feature, since
this program does alter the control files Autoexec.BAT, System.INI,
Control.INI, and Win.INI.
In a time when "customer service" can be an oxymoron, it was
refreshing.
About the program: This is the first home medical guide program I've
seen. I know there are others, but this one landed on my desk first.
So it's getting the benefit both of my freshness to the genre and of
the skepticism of a wheelchair-riding MS patient who's seen more
doctors and gathered more medical information than he ever wanted.
The Family Doctor stands up well to both. The CD is a home medical
guide by the author of the syndicated column of the same name, Dr.
Allan Bruckheim, M.D., FAAFP.
Dr. Bruckheim has been doing this a while and it shows. The
information is current and much more complete than I would have
thought likely in a general-audience health guide. The amount of raw
information on this CD is astonishing. Dr. Brukheim and Creative
Multimedia have managed to include some 2300 frequently asked
questions, 300 color illustrations, a prescription drug guide with
1600 entries and pictures of many of their pill form, a nice human
anatomy guide with video and sound, a database on Rare Disorders, and
an animated First Aid Guide, (More on that later.) a resource list,
and a strong search program. You can print out all the files for
future reference.
Almost every selection provides pointers to more information and it's
worth the extra drag and clicks to check it. Many of the articles list
bibliographies for further research.
The CD installs easily in Windows, requiring only the usual Windows
Run "SETUP" procedure. It's a little slow starting up but no worse
than any CD with a big interface program. The interface might feel
slightly odd to Windows users. Pull-down menus work after the
Macintosh fashion, click, drag the highlight bar to your selection and
then release the mouse button. The menus don't stay down in the
typical Windows manner. I didn't consider that a fault, just
different.
At startup a nice opening screen appears with a quick-select guide to
the left, supplementing the text buttons on the main screen. On the
Main Screen, buttons for the program functions nestle on the right:
Introduction and Agreements -- contains the software license and Dr.
Brukheim's video introduction. (Be warned! Dr. Brukheim's speaking
voice, while pleasant is, ummm...shall we say...powerful?) The intro
supplies a good overview of the program and its use. The doctor
hasn't left anything important out and advice from the author, in this
case, is very useful.
Questions & Answers - This is the main body of the CD. (The Human
Anatomy section is _your_ body on the CD.) It contains some 2300 of
the medical questions Dr. Brukheim has addressed in his tenure as a
syndicated medical columnist. The amount of information here is
surprising. Many of the articles include pointers to other information
on the CD, usually available by a simple drag and click. Everything on
this disc seems to be linked to everything else that might be apropos.
The structure of the database gu> ides you from the more general ideas
or questions to specific issues virtually painlessly. You might go
through two or three screens to get to the exact question you want but
the program works quickly enough that it's worth the trip.
Rare Disorders - This is one of the more intriguing sections. There
are diseases explained here that may affect only a few tens of people.
(One I looked at had only 40 reported cases.) The articles explain the
conditions as fully as practical in a popular work and include many of
the other conditions that might mimic one of the truly rare ones.
Bibliographic pointers to medical literature enable further research.
Prescription Drug Guide -- 1600 commonly prescribed medicines are
listed by generic-name. You can find them by trade name using the
Search and Browse system. Many of the listings are accompanied by
pictures of the pill forms under the "Additional Information"
pull-downs. The listings include how prescribed and supplied, how to
take them, side effects and conditions they are usually prescribed to
treat. It's not the Physician's Desk Reference, but it's not as hard
to use or understand, either.

Basic First Aid - This is just what it says, a solid guide to handling
medical emergencies for the layman. It covers treating minor to
life-threatening situations. with solid advice on everything from cuts
and bruises to heart attacks, drowning, electrical shock, and
poisoning. Unfortunately, there's a glitch in the program that,
combined with my system's configuration, wouldn't allow me to run the
animations or sounds. It seems the .WAV files for this section were
recorded at a non-standard sampling rate and require a Sound Blaster
driver to run. Since my system uses all the low IRQs and the Windows
SB Driver 1.5 only addresses IRQs up to 7, I couldn't play the sounds
and the program warned me that I had no .WAV player capable of playing
this sound format. Creative Multimedia's> Technical Support folks
agreed that the non-standard sound format should have been caught and
that Windows Sound System users really shouldn't have to install an
additional driver to run this program, but its in there. I trust they
will resolve this in the 4th Edition. So I really can't do justice to
this portion of The Family Doctor. From reading only the text, the
information seems to be a pretty standard First Aid guide.
Resources - Listings of Associations and Foundations related to
medical concerns, listing of Educational and Support Groups, and a
collection of health-related booklets. This is a good source of places
to look for informational and support groups related to specific
conditions.
Illustrations - This contains some 300 .BMP files of informational
illustrations of Anatomy, Body Processes, the appearances of various
Diseases and Injuries, Medical Procedures, and Health & Social Issues.
The illustrations are clear and informative, well labelled and good
quality. They provide a helpful adjunct to the textual information,
putting a "face" on the data.
Anatomy of the Human Body -- Hmmm. Beauty really is only skin deep.
No, not really. I find the human body fascinating and this section
only reinforces that fascination. All the body's major systems are
shown with their organ placement. The movies that accompany each major
system division show them well, often in live action. You can choose
from three magnification levels and as the cursor touches an item, a
right button click activates a sound file that gives the correct
pronunciation for that anatomical t> erm. Even more detailed
illustrations are available in the Illustrations Menu by selecting
that section's Human Anatomy division.
Search & Browse - Here's The Family Doctor's power plant. So far as
I've tried, barring misspellings, I've been able to find everything I
wanted within a few seconds. you can search for a specific term, drug,
organ, or program item or any combination thereof with Boolean
operators available at a click-and-drag. Just for fun, I tried
"allergy," AND "penicillin." Bingo! I got a listing of 30 articles
covering these two items in combination in, apparently, descending
relationship to penicillin allergy, from a> naphylactic shock reaction
to penicillin to general information on allergies and including a list
of illustrations of various allergic reactions. I had a few "no
occurrence" messages from artificially complicated searches, but I was
_trying_ to beat the program with conditions you'd expect to find in a
serious medical textbook, not in a family medical guide. Search is
particularly handy for looking up medications. A trade name search
will usually find the article on that dr! ug quickly.
I would have been happier with Search if it highlighted the "hits."
Some of the references it yields seem a little obscure now and then.
I'd like to see an interface of this quality on Creative Multimedia's
"Audubon's Birds" and Audubon's Mammals" that I reviewed a few days
ago. This is what I had in mind when I criticized their using Disc
Passage on those CDs.

Yes it is, but I am not familiar with others in order to compare it.
It has everything to give good insight into illnesses, diseases,
symtons,etc.. If it's missing anything, it would be a comprehensive drug

Well you could say that I did, I got to the 4th Day and kept getting

a few days. But then I came across a walk thru for the game and yes
I did finish the game but only by cheating. So after that was done I
decided to sale it to buy another CD game that I was wanting. Dracula
Unleashed is a great game if you have LOTS of will power to not cheat
or get mad at the game, but I don't have that kind of control, so I
finished it the easy way.

Hi John, here's the walkthru for the first age. If you would like the others,
just let me know here....Rich
Help is here, ENJOY!!
This is a bare bones walk through of the start of Myst, and includes informatio
on the Library and Tower. Not all details are covered, but the main points
required for discovering the clues to the Myst books on the island are included
You arrive on the island at the dock. Follow the dock to the end by the switch
go up the stairs and turn left. Follow the path to the stairs at the end.
Turn right and go up the stairs. You will find a note on the grass in front of
the round granite building. The note tells you about a chamber near the dock
and what to do there. You need to know how many marker switches are on the
island. The switch at the end of the dock was a marker switch and they all loo
the same. Explore the island and count the switches, turning them "on" as you
go. You should be able to turn on all but one of the switches. One is located
in a place you cannot get to yet, but you can see it.
Return to the dock and look for a small door near where you first entered Myst.
Clicking on the door will open it. Follow the corridor to a chamber. In the
chamber is a large round device with a button on it. Turn until you are facing
back toward the stairs and notice the small panel to the left of the stairway.
Click on it to move closer. There is a list of settings on the panel, and a
small button in the top left corner. Pressing the button causes the panel to
open, revealing two numbers in windows and two sets of small up and down arrow
buttons. Clicking on the arrow buttons allows you to set the two digit number
in the windows. Set the two digit number to the number of marker switches on th
island, then press the button in the lower right hand corner to close the panel
Go to the large round device and press the button on it. The message will then
play, giving you part of the story.
Exit the chamber the way you entered and make your way to the Library, the
square, granite building next to the round granite building in front of which
you found the note. Inside the library you will find a red book and red page,
blue book and blue page, three paintings, a bookcase and a fireplace. Take the
red page and put it on the red book. Reading the book will give you part of th
story. Do the same with the blue book and blue page. Examine the painting of
the island. There is an outline of the major structures and features of the
island on the painting (if you turned on the marker switches) and a flashing
circle. Click and hold on the flashing circle and a line will begin to rotate
around the circle. The line will turn red and pause at these points: the larg
gears on top of the hill near the dock, the sunken boat's crow's nest, the larg
tree, and the rocket ship. Stop the red line on the large gears. You will hea
the sound of the tower rotating. Go to the painting that shows stairs leading
to a corridor and click on it. The painting will swirl and the bookcase will
open to reveal a secret passage. Follow the secret passage to an elevator and
take the elevator to the tower. In the tower you will find two ladders. One
leads to a narrow window that shows you what you have aimed at. The other,
located behind the elevator, leads to a clue, bolted to the wall, that is neede
to access the Myst book at the location the tower is aimed at.
Return to the library, rotate the tower to the next spot where the line goes re
and pauses, return to the tower through the secret passage, and get the clue fo
this Myst book location. Repeat this process until you have all four clues.
Once you have all the clues and are back in the library, click on the painting
that shows an open doorway. This closes the secret passage and reopens the
library exit. Before leaving, examine all the books in the bookshelf. While
most are burned, some are not. The ones which can be read contain valuable
clues and some actual maps which you will need during the various Ages. One
book contains hundreds of drawings of squares in patterns. Leave this book
alone for the moment. The last item in the library, the fireplace, comes into
play later during the endgame.

The problem may be your sound card or sound card driver. Try changing the game
setup. Choose the music driver (i.e. Sound Blaster) and leave the speech as
none. Switch these back and forth to see if the game works properly.
I have the same game and can run the music fine, but if I set it up for Speech
too, then the game will lock up soon after I start playing. I know from my
experience, that an incorrect sound driver for that game will lock my computer
up. Borderbound offers very little in the way of new drivers.
Hope this helps, Rich

I was wondering how many drives you can run off of the controller that
comes with the Mitsumi(FX001)? This is the older single speed drive(350-400ms
( believe). Future shop has them on for only $59, and I wanted to know if you
could perhaps run 2 or 3 off of a single controller? Thanks.

Hello All, (Where ever you are.)
A little sigh from the heart, and from Denmark,
I'm looking for a good adventure creator program which allows me to make my own
graphic adventures. The idea is to find it on a CDROM so I could keep the main
program on the disc and the adventure on the harddisk.
Does anybody out there know of such a prg. then pls let me know. Any info will
be appreciated.
Best wishes

I would lead towards a 4x drive by Plextor. 1meg cache, 600kbits
transfer rate, or a Teak 4x, less cache though, only one trouble
you might have to find a external case for it, I know for a fact
that the PLEXTOR is SCSI, TEAK I do not know for sure, however
TOSHIBA also has a 4x, i'm hoping for a Plextor myself in the
near future.

Depending on the CDROM unit you have, If it is a READ/WRITE unit
then you have no problem, these units are quite expensive, cheapest are
around $3500, most of the other units are just READ only..
which model CD ROM or CD WORM you have

Thanks for the reply. We actually figured out how to do it. We experianced a
very long wait recording a 3 Minute sony to HDisk. It took it up to 30 Minutes.
Is this normal? We have to save it as a 44Khz,16Bit,Stereo.Also,
when we played it back(From Disk) it had a scratchy sound included with
playback.

You need a special drive to write CDROM's. Those drives cost in the
$3000 - $4000 range. You also need special gold disks that cost $12-15.
But with that equipment, yes you can write the information on your hard
drive to a CDROM. Once you've done that, any normal CDROM player can
read the CD.
There are a few people that advertise here to burn the CDROM for you.
It typically costs about $45-75 for the first copy and less for each
identical copy.

I had problems with it too. Tried many things. Finally discovered that
Windows was reporting my soundcard irq as 7 when it was actually 5. I changed
that and everything fell into place fine. Weird, since I have plenty of things
that use the soundcard and were working fine.

You need a card that has multiple CD interfaces or one that has a Mitsumi
interface. Creative labs SB16 mcd or SB AWE32 fill the bill. I have the AWE

I would say first off, you need to narrow the "type" of game you
enjoy.
Do you prefer the action type or the kind where you have to "figure"
out the moves.
Myst seems to be the kind where you have to find the clues and do
things in a certain way between different choices. It is more of a
mind against the computer. Figuring it out.
DOOM II has just been released. It is pure action. You don't have to
do much thinking, just move and shoot. You can play it between you
and the computer or call someone else up on the phone through the
modem and play together against the monsters, or against each other.
It is 3d and has great graphics and sound.
But this is a matter of personal taste.
Could you post the type of games you prefer to play. There are many
to choose from.

I have the Sony 2 X speed and am satisfied with it. It does what I
want it too. But then I don't expect much out of it.
It would depend on what you want to do with it. There seems to be an
endless list of them. :-) It seems one does get what they pay for.
In the computer business I have found that one should buy what they
can afford. Pay the highest price you can afford. And don't worry
about it. As there is always higher priced ones around. And in six
months your best will be the least..:-)
I would imagine much of this depends on what you want to use it for.
I have always bought my equipment from the point of what type of
software I was going to use. I see the software I want to use, and
buy the hardware which allows me to use it.
I have a friend who runs a XT with version 1.0 of everything, but it
gives to him everything he wants out of a computer. He has allowed
the rest of the computer users to go way out ahead of him, and doesn't
think that much of it. He is happy with his. And in the long run
that is what matters.
Good Luck.

Can I use writable cd's with my CD-ROM to store information from my
hard drive?
─═══════════════════─[ Here's what I gotta say about it ]─══════════════════─
You can use the CD-Recordable disc's on your CD-ROM drive, but only after
they have been recorded on by a ROM recorder. The discs can be recorded on
all at once or in multi-session format (your reader would need to be
Multi-session capable). The CD-R disc can be organized any way you want it,
just like your HD. The info is then burned into the CD-R disc by the recorder.

Hello,
This is my first post to this echo, so please forgive me if I'm
out of my league here. I have a Sony SBD-510 type CD-ROM drive. This
one is rather old, and is only single speed. What I would like to do is
hook it to my Sound Blaster card through it's D/A convertor, to the CD-
in four pin port on top of the Sound Blaster card. I am trying to build
a cable to perform this interface. The problem I'm having is on the
back of the CD-ROM there is a 5 and a 9 pin connection and I have no
idea what each pin does. If anyone can tell me what the pin-outs are on
here (or even tell me how to figure it out for myself) I'd appreciate
it. I know the pin-outs on the sound card, and Sony tech support
disavows any knowledge of ever having made this drive. So, any
suggestions are greatly appreciated. Thanks.

would be nice if I could post my 5-section ad here, that's all. So far
I haven't been able to because of the 10-line ad rule that Bob Hall and

it makes me wonder if the rules have changed. Not sure why you would take

Glenn,
Just thought I'd let you know that I have gotten to level7 and been stopped at
the entrance to level 8.
All you have to do is to go to the 6th level and try to activate the main
jettison enable. It will malfunction and then you will ahve access to the
maintainence level.
But if you haven't destroyed the mining laser then you will have to activate
the
shields and then disable the firing safety and then fire the laser from level2
zYou have to activate the shields and disable the safety on the reactor level.

Hallo Jason
JC> Hello Andy, there is absolutely no problem with the drive. I have the
JC> exact same drive so I know. The drive (mitsumi) has about a 5 second
JC> latency to pick up the disk and tell the cpu it has a disk.
JC> The only solution for your problem is to just wait 5 or so seconds
JC> before you try to access the drive.
wel, that isn't the problem. I know I have to wait 5 sec's. And I can
perfectly access the drive and disc.
BUT when I start copying things he gives me the same error. And I think you
can't wait 5 seconds while copying.. So there is something else wrong.. But
what?? I checked everything out, changed interrupts and base adresses but
there is no conflict. I only have problems with self maded discs and not with
the discs we usually buy in the stores.. And the self maded discs give no
problems on my other 6 cdrom drives!! So I think I did something wrong but I
just cannot find it. I hope you understand my problem now!
bye
Andy

When you purchase a cdrom drive, you don't get the drivers as the drivers are a
part of your controller package. So, if you have a scsi controller, you package
should contain the driver for the above drive as well as other scsi devices....
Hope this helps...

my sound card info...
MS-=> e) Direct access to Wave Table, Conversion or adapter (add on type)
What does 'direct access' mean? Would a GUS apply, even though
it needs MegaEM to access General Midi--in native mode it accesses
Wave Table fine.

Any help please
I have a 486DX33 VL system with 8 megs. Twice now in the past year I
have tried installing a CD-ROM multimedia kit and had the same problem
each time.
The problem is when running any multimedia disk under windows the system
hangs when playing a video clip either with or without sound. this
latest kit is from Reveal and has the SC400 sound/interface board and
panasonic CD563 drive. The previous kit was one from creative labs.
DOS based CDs (e.g. wing commander II) run without a hitch, digitized
sound and all. But I can't get a single windows title to run if it has
sound and video. (Primarily I want to use encyclopedias)
I've played with the IRQs and DMAs in just about every configuration I
can think of, even set up multiple system.ini and win.ini files to see
if the video mode made a difference.
If anyone has one of these kits or a very similar setup I'd appreciate
any insight you may have. I have about 3 weeks to return this kit to
the store as its useless to me unless I can use it as I planned.

Take a look at Paint Shop Pro by Jasc (612) 930-9171. There is a
shareware version and it is well worth getting the registered version
with a published book. ImageCommander (new fall 1994) is an image file
management system.
These programs are handy for collecting and organizing pictures from
various CDs for a project.

Hello All!
I've Just bought a CD-rom drive, and I wonder this:
I each Audio-CD unique, or is the ID-number (or whatever it's called in
CD players) the same on two identical CD's. I wondered if there is any
chance to make a database over plenty of Audio CD's which others might
use? I've tried two identical Metallica CD's (the latest, '91), and it
didn't work. They had different ID's.
Just a thought...

Hi there Robert
RR> does anyone know if this is a feesable form of media does it really work
RR> on a regular cd drive
RR> i have been told this by a mail order catolog
Recordable CD-ROMs are a feasible media if you need mass duplication of large
data items, or for mass backups of large storage... However, for the average
individual prices of CD-ROM RECORDERS are still very expensive for most... A
decent model will run you between $3,000 and $6,000.
But NO, using Re-Cordable CD-ROM discs in a REGULAR CD-DRIVE will NOT work.
Normal drives ONLY have the ability to READ (ROM - Read Only Memory).

Sorry, to say but, I been wondering if the money is

So, I hope that it makes it here! I was having my doubts
about what was going on too. I have been having problems
with my mailer and Comm program so I have'nt been able to
read or send any mail! I log onto a BBS so I could see if
I had any mail waiting for me and found your letter. I
would'nt lie to you about the money and I still have the
the disk waiting. I could just send it to you since it
takes so long to get anything. Do you think the letter
my of been lost somewhere or is this normal for it to
take so long. I will send the CD if you would like. I
will wait until I hear back from you before we decide
what to do. I hope it so up! Soon Talk to later if
somthing comes up.

What might be the problem (I seem to have a bit of the same problem but with
another game) is that your sound card is interfering with the audio output for
the CDs.
You see, for the introduction, credits, and other heavely animated sequences or
sequences which are programmed in to the card and aren't in Audio/Visual
format, the sound output is fed THROUGH the computer, processed, and then sent
out the sound card. However, for some parts, the FX can be played *directly*
off the CD (off another track), in which case the computer is bypassed
completely and the sound is routed through your controller card and into the
amps. It is possible that your sound card is producing too much intereference,
and therefore obliterating the sound. My computer seems to have the same
problem. I can't play music CDs, unless I unplug the audio output from the
sound card (My CDROM doesn't hook into my sound card). I can only hear very
faint sounds (at MAX volume) if the hookup is left in. I don't know what the
solution is...maybe someone on this echo knows??
Take off, hoser.

I agree with Herschel Blair. As the title suggests, it's broad based like
something for a family.
The CD configured to run the sound directly from the the CD player so the
sound tracks are interleaved somehow. I have separate speakers connected
to my CD ROM reader, and it sounds great.
The CD has a body atlas. I really love it! It has a slide bar control
which you can use to peal off layers. It reminds me of the plastic
overlays that many health books have where each page lifts back to reveal
a lower layer of the body. Besure to use atleast 256 colours to get the
best effect.

It is pretty simple all you have to do is find as many gems as you
can go to the alter lay them on the ground go find some more come
back lay them on the ground and save the game then put one in the
alter if it is good save the game then put another gem in the alter
until you get all of them in just keep putting in save if works if
not reload the game . Namor

At this time I wouldn't buy a FX-0001D to use with multimedia applications such

You are going to need some type of CD Publishing Software for Novell
(IE: COREL Scsi Express). That version of Novell has no built in support
for CDs or Changers....

Soory Vince, you have the wrong Allen Davis, not only do I not know what
you are talking about, I dont even have a clue. I just turn thsis thing
on and use it. When something goes wrong I play around with it until it
works or I have made a minor problem a major one, then I get help. So I
am glad you figured out how to do whatever it was you were trying to do.

Billy--why would you invite one to FREQ a file and then not allow the
file request? Long distance calls aren't that cheap for this sort of
thing.......I was interested in checking out your information, but at
this point I'd look at it if you are willing to send it to me at fido
address 1:3603/630. Not spending any more of my dimes to get refused a
file transfer.....BTW my front end will let you in. I am a co-sysop at
that fido address. The request will show up on your log as 630.2 which
is my remote site at home.......request was made on 11-20-94 at approx

Mike;
We were not aware of any 10 Page Limit on the Nets, Untill you mentioned it to
me.
We have re-written the Master List to break it don to a reasonable limit.
We would never have up loaded the Master List (Out-Dated Already), if we
haven't been receiving as many requests for what we have, and to mail them out.
I have delt with you in the past, and found you to be more then fair in your
Dealings, and could not understand your original reason for questoning the
up-load.
I deceided to try the easy way. and Thank you for you reply.
Keep in touch, if We have any requests for items we Don't currently stock, we
will be more then happy to send them to you. and Joe. (Config-Sys.)

I would be interested to know from more experienced users about the ups and

your CD-ROM access time? I know the program exists, but i'm not exactly sure
what it does...

If you have a 8 bit soundcard you can't use high DMA channels(higher than 5).
I have configured my mitsumi with IRQ channel 10 but no DMA channel and it
works fine. You must type S for DMA channel in the setup.
I'm not used to write in English, excuse my errors.

To configure the drive there is 6 jumpers on the back of the drive. I know
that the first 3 are for the scsi address. What I need to know is what the
other three jumper setting do when jumperd and when open. Any one with the
info????? I sure would appriciate it! Thanks!

That is my offer if you prepay... if c.o.d. charges are incurred
then it adds $5. It won't be finished for pickup from the

Plain and simple, you don't need on right now. If you want to upgrade,

a 4x right now. It's like buying a new gadget. And serious computer

I do not include many programs that are specific for any single
bbs software program. They tend to fill a cd rather quickly
with programs that would be of value to only a very small
percentage of customers. I do have a fairly large BBS directory
that contains mailers, rom doors, game doors, etc. that are
generic and will run with ANY bbs. It has been my experience
that a sysop knows where to find the latest support programs for
their bbs... so I don't believe there would be a large enough
customer base to make such a cd... and still be able to sell it
for a competitive price.

Hello,
I don't think you understand what CD-ROM stand for.
"Compact Disk - Read Only Memory"
Most likely if you paid anywhere under $1000 for your CD Drive that it
is only a reader. Therefore the answer to your question is "NO"

Joe,
I'd definitely recommend a double-speed CD drive to anyone looking to
purchase a unit. Definitely can NOT beat the double speed when it
comes to programs such as Video for Windows by MS, which is used by
Comptons and Encarta. In fact, 3 or 4 speed should be considered if
looking to the future.
BTW, Yes Bookshelf is an incredible CD. Very handy.
Take care,

I run a BBS under OS/2, and most of my file echoes distribute DOS, Windows,
and OS/2-based shareware. There are a lot of Mac users here, and I'd like to
setup a CD-ROM with nothing but Mac files. Does such a beast exist or do I
need to settle for the Garbo DOS/Mac CD-ROM?
I'd prefer as much Mac stuff as possible but still be able to be accessed by
my DOS BBS software.
Thanks very much.
Also, vendors (Mike, Joe, Boris, and the rest), please feel free to make
suggestions and let me know if you have stock and take credit card orders.

No need to go that expensive route. The Graphic Workshop will do just fine.
I'm using version 1.1m for Windows and it supports Photo-CD plus lots of

It's a commercial game, you fly a WWI bi-plane over enemy

-and- an action adventure game in one package! Cost $59.95, got all the
maps, docs, registration, etc. It's too much for my kids, they want something
simplier, like Jill (have tried shareware version), It was never even loaded,
it's brand-new! Trade for 3 & 7, we both pay our own shipping, deal?

Smartdrv may not be caching your cd-rom. Make sure smartdrv loads "after"
your cd-rom driver, and the default 2 meg should be enough, but if you can

BC>One difference I know of is that the CD-version has 10,000 plays to

BC>think that 3,000 is quite sufficient, especially when you can design
BC>your own.
One other difference that I thought would deal with some of the
trouble that other people were complaining about was that with the CD
version you don't have any copy protection. Also you get a slightly
longer intro with better music and music (from the CD) while using the
menus.

If you don't want one, don't get one. No one's holding a gun to your
head. There are people who wants high-end technology and power. It's
like buying a pentium to play computer games. Why don't people hardly
buy 8088 XTs anymore?? I mean that is a real STUPID question. It's like
why someone would drive an $80K sports car and you might be happy with a
3 cylinder Geo metro, or I might be satisfied w/ my CRX. Personally, I
own a NEC 3xi drive, because I got it at a great price. 4X drives are
prices very low these days.
When there are new things out, some people will buy it. Others won't.
You got the money and you think it's worth the cost, than get it. I
really don't get the point of your question. Like I said, no one's
forcing you to buy anything. I hope I don't sound like I'm getting down
on you and stuff. I just don't see the point you're trying to make.
And you shouldn't call anyone "egh-heads"

Hi James,
I'm impressed with how far you got in the game, for the longest time I couldn't
get past the first day!! There is a couple of things in your inventory that
I'm not farmiliar with, but I know that they are not important to the game,
they
just make it more interesting and gives you a couple of neat cut-scenes.
Anyhow
you showed Harker the knife, and the ball got rolling so to put it. Didn't
Harker
give you a cross, necklace?? Give this to Annisette, this will protect her from
Dracula, which will get you into the next day. I believe, at this part of the
game your schedual becomes real tight, and you don't have enough time to do all
of the things you want to do. I suggest that, you do what I did, which was to
save the game at the begginning of each day, then play the day out, keeping
record of where you went, what happened, and time!! You must pay very close
attention to the little details in the game, because they can be crucial clues.
Also if someone tells you to meet them somewhere, be there on time, because if
you don't you won't get the proper scene. This way, it is kind of a pain in the
ass, because you play the day over and over again, but this way, you can make
sure that you are not missing anything. Don't be affraid to go back to places
more than once a day. You can also keep a on-going saved game to mark your
progress
and keep the beginning of the game as you backup. You shouldn't have any more
problems with this game, because I found that the first day was the hardest,
because you had to get all the background information, and set the story line.
But the second day was a bit easier, because everything is set up for you. The
third day flows right into the forth and last day, and all you have to do is
follow the story line, which the other caracters will tell you were and when
to go. You just have to make sure that you are prepared to go there!! I could
tell you more about the game, but it will wreck the suspence and thrill of the
game. Enuff said. Any more problems give me a jingle.
p.s. btw the two guys, who own the bookstore, they are setting up a trap, that
you will find out at the end.

Read: [N/A] Private: No
I have a Sony 31 CD-ROM drive, and lately I've been getting read errors on a
variety of discs, both new and old. By watching the light on the front of the
drive, I can see the drive trying about 10-20 times to read the same spot, then
about 4-5 seconds of inactivity, then it reads the area OK. There are some
discs that always get into trouble on the same spot.
Is it worth "cleaning the lens" with one of the music store type CD drive
cleaners? Should I try a Q-tip cleaning? Is there something wrong with the
drive itself? Or is this just one of those things one has to learn to live
with?
The problem occurs on about one-third of the discs I have, many of which are
brand new. It can't be defects in the discs ... can it?
Thanks in advance for your advice!

The reason 4x cd-rom is that uncompressed video need about a 550K per second

PP│ Peter
Hello Peter,
I like the Plextor and the Teac. They are both SCSI, and the Plextor,
at least, is available as an external unit.
The trouble is, at $600 or more, neither of these drive even comes close
to being affordable. I wonder why it is that one can buy internal 2x
CD-ROM drive with controller for $100 or less, but an external drive,
with no controller, is at least 3 times that much.
It beats me. The best value I've found, so far, is the NEC 3xp, which
is a 3x external SCSI drive with a 500kbs transfer rate for $379. It's
in a nice compact case. My understanding is that it's been
discontinued, but I guess I don't really care. I believe that the
entire CD-ROM standard is in the process of changing, to permit higher
data density, so everything we have today will be obsolete anyway.
'Seems like a shame to spend $400 - $600 for obsolete technology (!)

JD│ The CDR 74-1 is an external drive, the remaining drives are internal.
│ All of these drives are new and come with a one year warranty from us.
Thanks for the reply Jeanne -
$299 seems to be right in line for that drive, but that's more than I
want to spend on a double speed drive. I'd like to spend about $200 for
a 2x, $300 for a 3x or $400 for a 4x drive.
So far, the best I've seen is $379 for an NEC 3xp - do you have this
one? I think they have a 2 year warrantee.

I am using an Aztec NX Pro with my single speed Mitsumi and
have not had any trouble. The Aztec card will drive the Mitsumi so you
can get rid of the interface card and save one slot. The Aztec is
compatible with Sound Blaster, Adlib, Covox and Disney Sound Machine.
There is anothe clone card that will directly drive the Mitsumi but I
don't remember the name offhand.
The Aztec card comes in two flavors, one for Mitsumi and one for
Panasonic so be sure to get the correct one. I'm not sure whether the
16 bit Aztec card can be used with the Mitsumi.
The problems I remember reading about had to due with an inconsistency
between the way the connector on the Mitsumi was wired vs the way the
input on the SB was wired. The solution was to reverse the wires on the
end of the connector supplied with the drive. I believe the inside
wires had to be moved to the outside and vice versa but I'm not
positive.

Need to know what you set in the 'autoexec.bat' file. If you didn't
set smartdrive to LH C:\dos\smartdrv.exe 2048 c d then you only
cached your hard drive. Expecting your CD Rom to be D drive.
Smartdrv /? at the dos prompt will show if your CD rom is cached.
If no one else responds, write back. My CD ROM spins up real well,
and I have also included DMA transfer w/64 K buffer. For multimedia
and CD ROM games, I have no jitter and smooth video.
Try these settings. They work real well (BTW, I have 4 Meg RAM).

Albert:
From a different set of notes I have on Myst, it says:
Go inside the spaceship and play the keyboard notes according to the
sequence found in the Selenitic Age book. Listen to each tone and match it
with the tuner sliders on the opposite end of the ship. Click on the
animation to be transported to the Selenitic Age.
Hope this helps!

A swedish company (Productum) makes clipart CDs with great pictures from a
wide variety of subjects. I think they cost about 70 dollars each and are
sold around the world (popular in amerika because they don┤t look like
applepie and baseball :-).
Look for Provektor 1,2 and 3. (files in eps, wmf and ai format)

I have a 486/DLC40 motherboard with 8meg RAM and a 214mb harddrive and I
am planning to buy a CD-ROM soon, I one though before I do this, Do I
have enough memory and how will it run on my system. Oh, one other thing
I use PCTools for windows desktop. All help will be useful, I'm on a
tight budget and I hopefully be able to buy a Pentium next year, but not
sure.
