***** FIVE STAR GAMES FOR DOS *****
===================================================================
Thank you for purchasing this CD. We at Ready To Run CDROM, Inc. is
proud to give you a user-friendly and quality product.
The whole CD is completely menu driven and unzipped. It is so
easy to use that anyone with one finger can run this CD.
Over 90% of the programs on this CD requires VGA graphics support
and is graphics intensive.
Most of the programs will run directly from this CD, saving you
valuable hard disk space.
You can print out this installation file by pressing "P". Make sure
your printer is turned "ON".
The whole CD has been scanned by McAfee's virus detection software
and no virus are found.
WHAT'S NEW WITH FIVE STAR GAMES FOR DOS VERSION 2?
FIVE STAR GAMES becomes one of the top-selling shareware games within
two months. We do this updated edition three months after it was
first released.
There are no difference in contents except that a few bugs are
fixed and games that cannot run from CD are deleted from the menu.
You can copy those games into your hard disk and run from there.
The major difference is in the menu system. In version 1 we use
POWERMENU. Now we use our own menu which does not require registration
fee, but are copyrighted by READY TO RUN CD-ROM, INC.
====================================================================
SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
====================================================================
-- 386SX-16 or faster computer
-- 2Meg RAM, preferrable 4Meg (8Meg or more would be nice)
-- VGA card w/256k (preferrable with 512k or 1Meg)
-- VGA color monitor
-- Serial or bus mouse (some games do not run without a mouse)
-- MS-DOS or PC-DOS 5.0 or later versions
-- Windows 3.1 or later versions
-- Optional Sound Blaster compatible sound card and speaker
(highly recommended, some programs on this CD support
a sound card)
====================================================================
INSTALLATION
====================================================================
It would be helpful if you also put the "MENU" subdirectory
into the PATH statement.
NO INSTALLATION IS NEEDED if you are happy with the default settings
of the MENU.
1. Assuming the FIVE STAR CD is put inside the CD-ROM and you
log into the CD-ROM ( for example, if "E" is your CD-ROM),
type "START" and then <ENTER> key
E>START <enter>
You will see the "FIVE STAR GAMES FOR DOS" menu, simply move
cursor bar with up and down arrow keys or use your mouse. Hit
<ENTER> or click your mouse on the item that you want to run.
Some games write to the disk when updating the configuration file
or top score file. This will cause a disk error because CDROM is
a READ-ONLY device. This error will NOT damage your system. It's
OK as long as you don't care recording down your high scores.
If otherwise, you may copy the game to your hard disk and run it
from there.
Graphics and sound intensive games requires LOTS of memory. Some
of the big games here requires 560K plus memory to run. Please
use MEMMAKER (MS-DOS 6.x), or RAMBOOST (IBM DOS 6.1), or QEMM
to optimized your system memory setting.
=====================================================================
OTHER IMPORTANT SHAREWARE UTILITIES
=====================================================================
PKZIP FILE COMPRESSION AND DECOMPRESSION UTILITY (PKZIP)
PKZIP is included in this CD for your convenience. You can compress
any game for electronic transmisson or copying to diskettes with
PKZIP.
ELFTREE HARD DISK MANAGEMENT UTILITY (ELFTREE)
This niftly utility helps you view any text file and manipulate
file transfer between drives. Please copy the whole subdirectory
to your hard disk for smoother operation. ELFTREE creates an index
file for high speed sorting, which would create "error opening file"
if you run it from the CD. You may ignore the error message and
continue the program.
DIRECTORY COMMANDER FILE MANAGEMENT UTILITY (DCOM)
This is another great hard disk management utility. It differs
from ELFTREE in not creating an index for searching and sorting.
===================================================================
SOUND CARD DEFAULT SETTING
===================================================================
The default setting of the sound card for the games on this CD are:
(it is the default of the Sound Blaster Card of Creative Lab)
--- IRQ7
--- address 220
--- DMA1
These games are tested with Sound Blaster compatible cards from
Gallant (SC-3000, 4000) and Zoltrix's Audio Plus Card.
