INSTALLATION:

-If you have Internet Explorer 4.0 installed on your system, you
 may have a problem running the intro video for Seven Kingdoms.
 Here are the steps to fix the problem:
 1. Open your Internet Explorer 4.0 browser.
 2. Click Help on the Menu bar.
 3. Click Product Updates.
 4. Once Internet Explorer 4.0's Active Setup has initialized
    and done its check on your system, scroll down the add-on
    page and select Direct Show to upgrade it.
 5. Click Next to initiate the IE4.0 Direct Show download.
 6. Choose your site to download from, then download and
    install the upgrade to Direct Show.
 Upon completion of these steps you will be able to view the
 opening animation when you next start up the game with AutoPlay.

-If you have Auto-Play enabled on your computer, installation
 should start automatically once you insert the Seven Kingdoms CD.
 If you do not have Auto-Play enabled, follow the directions below.

-Double-click Setup.exe on the Seven Kingdoms CD and follow the
 instructions. Then double-click the 7K.EXE icon to start the game
 or select Seven Kingdoms\7K from the Start Menu.

-Be sure to restart your computer after installation, especially
 if you have not had ActiveMovie installed before on your computer.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

ONLINE MANUAL:

-To view the online manual you need Adobe Acrobat Reader.  If you
 do not have this software on your computer, you can install it by
 running SETUP.EXE in the Manual directory on the Seven Kingdoms CD
 and following the instructions.  You must be in Windows to use
 Acrobat Reader.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

RESOLUTION:

-The game will only play in 800x600x256-color video mode. If you try
 to install while in Windows 640x480 resolution, you will get an
 error message during the install. Switch your Windows desktop to
 800x600x256-color or higher to install.

-After the game has installed, an error may occur when exiting the
 game. This error occurs when your computer attempts to auto-switch
 back to the higher resolution/color depth of your desktop (it may
 not switch back properly). To avoid this error, switch your
 desktop to 800x600x256 colors prior to starting the game.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

INTELLIMOUSE 2.0:

-In rare instances, your system may not start the game properly if
 you have the Microsoft Intellimouse with Intellipoint 2.0 software
 installed on your computer. The best solution if this problem
 occurs is to hit <CTRL-ALT-DEL> to bring up the Close Program
 window (prior to starting the game), select MSWheel from the
 list of running programs, then click on the End Task button to
 remove MSWheel.dll from memory. MSWheel will be loaded back into
 memory again once you restart Windows.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

MULTIPLAYER:

-To support a multiplayer game of four players using one CD, all
 players must select the CD-less installation option (basically a
 full install).
