INTRODUCTION

Leagal stuff

Artificial Interrupt and everyone who contributed for the
release will not, in any case, by any means, no matter what happens
or what damage should appear, be liable for it. This software is not
supposed to do anything else than what it does when you run it. Thus
it is not assumed to be suitable for any particular purpose; we will
not assume any responsibilities, expressed or implied, about it.

The package can be distributed freely without modification. No money
can be charged for it, other than standard fees for access to a BBS,
or the cost of the material the demonstration is recorded on. It can
not be used to add value to a commercial product; however, shareware
distributors can put it in their collections, be it CD-ROM or floppy
disks and similar computer media, as long as it's sold together with
other shareware of public domain programs in the same package; never
can this demonstration be alone in the sold package, or be the first
reason to give the customer in order to get him interested.

Comments from the group:

talos          Says: I was finished with the intro 1 day before TP,
as all you democoders know. It's tiering to code
So I didn't care to optimize or anything :)
I checked the intro on my 486 and it worked :)

Trouble Shooing

It won't start!

o Make sure you have more then 470k conversional memory

Error messages

o Can't allocate DMA buffer = Less then 470k conversional memory
o Not enough RAM            = Not enough RAM :)

Sync problems

o Run in pure DOS (not MS-DOS prompt or Exit to DOS) Reboot!

Music initiation problems

o Make Sure you have the supported sound card.
o Make sure you have installed the DOS drivers and have all
autoexec.bat and config.sys lines for your sound card
o Try manual configuration

The demo shuts down sometime in the demo

o Probebly low RAM (This should never happen)

If this doesn't help

o Contact someone that is more experienced and have more
computer skills than you
o Contact AI (talos@algonet.se) and describe your problem
