Welcome to Software of the Month Club!
TROUBLE-SHOOTING
If you encounter problems while launching programs, quitting the START
program may solve your problem. Run the program from DOS without the START
program will usually remedy most problems. This is especially true when
trying to launch game programs.
Some programs will try to write back to the CD-ROM. Because the CD-ROM is
READ ONLY, you may have to copy the program to your local hard disk prior to
use.
CD-ROM DIRECTORY STRUCTURE
The programs on this CD-ROM were grouped into directories by SIG (Special
Interest Group). Under each SIG directory you will find a sub-directory
for each program.
BONUS <DIR> <---- BONUS SOFTWARE
BUS <DIR> <---- BUSINESS SIG
DTP <DIR> <---- DESKTOP PUBLISHING SIG
GAMES <DIR> <---- GAMES SIG
GI <DIR> <---- GENERAL INTEREST SIG
KIDS <DIR> <---- KIDS SIG
MMEDIA <DIR> <---- MULTIMEDIA SECTION
OS2 <DIR> <---- OS/2 SIG
SRI <DIR> <---- SOFTWARE RESEARCH INSTITUTE
UTILITY <DIR> <---- UTILITIES FOR VARIOUS SIG'S/YOU MAY FIND DUPLICATES
WIN <DIR> <---- WINDOWS SIG
ZIPFILES <DIR> <---- FOR SYSOPS (BBS OPERATORS)
GETTING PROGRAM DESCRIPTIONS & DOCUMENTATION
The PROGRAM GUIDE button in each SIG contains a detailed description of
the programs. Please read the PROGRAM GUIDE for any special instructions
or requirements. For a MASTER PROGRAM GUIDE (a list of everything on this CD)
and BACK ISSUES (a list of previous published CD's) press the MASTER PROGRAM
GUIDES button.
SOFTWARE RESARCH INSTITUTE
Each Software of the Month Club CD-ROM will includes a selection of
program cateogies from our popular Software Research Institute list.
In addition to the normal selection of software from our Games, General
Interest, Kids, OS/2 and Windows clubs you will recieve programs from
the Software Research Institute. What this means is that you can be assured
that when you use a program from the Software Research Institute you know
that it is the highest quality. Why? Because the Software Research
Institute is a list of our must popular customer selected software. Below
is a list of topics covered in this months issue.
This month we have selected the following Software Research Institute topics:
GAMES - SIMULATION/SPORTS
GENERAL INTEREST - SCIENCE/UTILITIES/WORD PROCESSING/MAIL MANGEMENT
