                        Welcome to 

             "EcoQuest: The Search for Cetus"


Thank you for purchasing this game.  We hope you have
as much fun playing it as we had creating it!

This file contains the absolutely latest and greatest
information about this version of the game.  Right now,
we know about the following "special situations":

1. If your computer is close to the minimum "free memory"
   to run this game, you may experience slowdowns in some
   areas or receive the error message "Out of Hunk".  If
   this occurs, try running the game from a boot disk as
   described in your EcoQuest manual.  (To check free
   memory, type "chkdsk" from DOS.  If the "bytes free"
   number reported is less than 580,000, you may need
   to use a boot disk.)

2. Our INSTALL program is unable to "auto-magically"
   detect whether or not you have a Creative Music System
   GameBlaster Card in your computer.  If you have one,
   go ahead and select it yourself.  (Who says computers
   are smarter than you?!)

3. We also occasionally miss the Tandy 2500XL's sound
   capabilities.  You know you've got 3-voice sound and
   a DAC chip, so go ahead and choose 'Tandy with Dac' for
   SPEECH, and 'Tandy 3 Voice' for MUSIC.

4  If you have a Tandy 2500XL or 1000RLX and experience 
   problems while installed for 'Tandy with Dac', install 
   for 'No Audio/Voice Card'.

5. Sometimes INSTALL will report that you have the Disney DAC.
   If you don't have it, just don't choose it!



Don't forget to click everything everywhere.  We've tried to
hide some really funny messages and other "surprises" for you.
And, HEY!  Have a GREAT visit to Eluria!
