	please notice that letters are ordered from left to right




















	thanks for experiencing aspirine productions

	we sincerelly hope that this quick reference troubleshooting getting
	started user's manual will be helpful and enjoyable for all endusers


















	we recommend you to use the following hardware to enjoy our demo:

	pentium-like cpu with internal clock frequency set at two hundred
	megahertz, a fast and accurate floating point unit and some kilobytes
	of burst cache memory

	about sixteen megabytes of flat random access memory available

	a twenty four binary digits per pixel in three hundred twenty by two
	hundred	graphic resolution capable video hardware with a vesa bios
	extension version two dot zero or higher driver loaded otherwise you
	will experience slow fake high color mode

	although most soundcards are supported we recommend you to use an
	advanced gravis ultrasound audio board with five hundred and twelve
	or more kilobytes of built-in wavetable memory

	at least one eye, one ear and one finger to type y2k (the .exe suffix
	doesn't mind) at the dos prompt and hit the <enter> key to load and
	execute this multimedia program

	may we still ask you to run this demonstration under plain microsoft
	disk operating system compatible environment















	we noticed some problems with some brand new cyber agp video
	hardware

	if you do so then give a try to fakemode (see command line
	arguments) or buy a older graphic card

	if you want to check out bug list or register your card in
	a unsupported hadrware list watch out <www.gaffer.org/ptc>

























	if you have time to waste, you may try the following command
	line switches:

        --audio-config		avoid audio hardware probing (use menu)
	--debug			show debug informations at startup
	--force-fakemode	force PTC to use FAKEMODE2C
	--no-probe		same as "--audio-config"


















	when you use fake high color mode we recommend you to sit a couple
	of meters far of your screen for optimal results
