1. quit all other applications
2. insert the cd into your cd-rom drive(the start.exe file will automatically launch)
3. If you do not see the opening logo movie (spinning 'A'), then QuickTime is not installed properly. Quit the start.exe program and and refer to the "to install QuickTime" instructions further along in this read me.

3. insert the cd into your cd-rom drive
4. double click on the start icon in the "avalanche" folder.
Trouble shooting:
1.If no videos play(only black) then you do not have QuickTime properly
installed,refer to the next section "to install QuickTime".
2.If you are running your monitor in 8-bit(256 colors) mode then set your monitor settings to 16-bit or higher("Start"->"settings"->
control panels"->double clik on "display" then go to settings tab).
If your colors are all messed up and there are color bursts when you click on the buttons then your running the "start.exe" in 8-bit mode.
3.If you click on the top left "USWEST.net" button on the "USWEST.net" page and nothing happens then you probably have a browser already running, quit all other applications and then try again.If it still
does not work then you may need to install our browser first, by clicking on the "Upgrade to the USWEST/Netscape browser" button on the USWEST.net page.
