- Known Problems
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------
- On certain systems the keyboard does not function properly.
- If you are using one of these systems, instead of typing
- KOS
- type
- KOS key
- or
- KOS key ask
-
- at the dos prompt, or operate the program with the mouse.
-
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------
- If you never see video, but can see the menus when you hit Escape,
- your sound card is not configured properly.
-
- Check your documentation, autoexec.bat or win.ini
- files for the proper IRQ, DMA, and PORT and enter these manually after
- typing KOS ask.
-
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------
- Certain Sound Cards, such as the Diamond SonicLX card, and the MediaMagic
- soundcard can be configured using a utility that comes with the card
- to be a SoundBlaster or a Windows Sound System card.
-
- The utility is variously named ISPINIT.EXE or SONIC.EXE.
-
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------
- The program cannot autodetect these cards when they are configured in
- SoundBlaster mode. Furthermore, if configured as Sound Blaster, you can only
- run the program once between reboots. The second run will fail.
-
- Please configure these sound cards in Microsoft Mode using
- the utility, type KOS ask, and specify that you are using a Microsoft
- Sound card,
-
- -OR-
-
- Note the IRQ, Port, and other information for the SoundBlaster configuration.
- (IRQ 11 is not supported. If you chose IRQ 11 please change it).
- Type KOS ask, and specify an old sound blaster. Enter the port and IRQ, and
- note that the program will only run once.
-
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------
- If you have any other problems, a long shot: try removing the memory managment
- from your config.sys and try again.
- If you use DOS 6.0, you can set up alternate boot configurations.
