strongly recommended for playing the game.

The Program Disk will then be copied into a folder
on your Hard-disk root directory called "GOLF".
You will then be asked to insert the two course
disks so that the course data can be copied into
the "GOLF" folder.
NOTE: Golf runs from a folder that is situated in

into a sub-directory the program won't run
correctly.

A HARDDISK folder and type 'GOLF'.
SAVED GAMES, Whenever you wish to save a game, replay or player
REPLAYS AND profile, the file will be saved to the device that
PLAYER your first booted the game from. (eg: if you booted
PROFILES the game from Hard-Disk, files will be saved to
Hard-Disk). You can, however, save to Drive A, Drive
B or Hard-Disk, depending upon what you have

OPERATING DIFFICULTIES AND LOADING PROBLEMS!
--------------------------------------------
In the vast majority of cases a loading problem
is not of faulty software, but either an incorrect
procedure or a hadware fault. Please ensure that the
loading instructions have been correctly executed.
The most common hardware failures are due to a
misalignment of the heads in the disk drive.
Such faults may be detected by loading the game on
another computer.
Alternatively, a virus may have transferred into your
hardware from another piece of software.
Pirated copies of games are an incredibly common
source of viruses. It always pays to own orginal
software. (a virus killer is a cheaper solution -RBL)
In the unlikely event of a software fault, please
return the complete package, with receipt to the
place of purchase. Microprose regret that goods can't
be replaced unless bought from the company directly.
If you have any difficulty whilst loading MICROPROSE
GOLF, or need help in geting the simulation to run.
Microprose will be happy to help you on the helpline.
Please ring UK (0666) 504399, Monday to Friday 0900
to 1700 hrs. Have a pen and paper handy when you call.
PROTECTION We regret that organised (FairLight) and casual pircay
forces us to use manual protection. When the game has
loaded, you will be asked to indicate which language
your manual is in, by clicking on a nationalflag icon
(English, French or German). You will then be asked to
type in the word corresponding to the given manual
ref. in the form Page number, Line number and then
word number. Simply open the manual at the appropriate
page, count down to the required line and then across
to find the correct word. Type this word in and press
Return. the game will then load.

control method for playing this game. However, if you

you may do so. The game is configured on both Atari ST
and Commodore Amiga to read from Mouse, Keyboard or
Joystick all the time, so it is not necessary for you
to select which you require. The alternative Keyboard
