The Lord of the Rings Enhanced CD-ROM
README.TXT file
Version 1.0



QUICK START:

From the D: prompt (or whatever your CD-ROM drive letter is), type INSTALL
to install the game files to your hard disk and begin.


SETUP NOTE:

After installing the game to hard disk, if you need to change its
configuration for a different sound card or for any other reason, enter
the GAME directory and type SETUP.

If you'd like to run the demo from the title page, you will first need to
run the INSTALL demo and pick the option "Install Demo".


NOTE FOR QEMM USERS:

QEMM's Stealth mode is incompatible with The Lord of the Rings.
You will have to make sure Stealth mode is OFF before running
the program.


NOTE FOR PRO AUDIO SPECTRUM 16 USERS:

The Lord of the Rings will use your Pro Audio Spectrum 16 card in its
Sound Blaster emulation mode.  Make sure your PAS-16 is not set to
IRQ 5.  If you have trouble with movie playback and just can't get the 
movies to play, as a last resort you may wish to set up the game to use 
the original "Pro Audio Spectrum" setting, or to use the "Sound Blaster" 
setting.  To change this sound card setting, enter the GAME directory
on your hard disk and type SETUP.


NOTE FOR USERS OF SLOW CD-ROM DRIVES:

Movie playback may be particularly slow if you are using a CD-ROM drive
that does not meet the MPC 1.0 specification: i.e. 150K/second sustained
data transfer rate while taking up 40% of the CPU bandwidth.  The movies 
will play back OK if your CD-ROM drive is MPC compliant.
