Action SuperCross shareware Version 1.1

System Requriments:

80486DX 33-Mhz or faster processor (66-Mhz is highly recommended)
6.2 Megabytes of free memory
DOS 5.0 or higher, VGA graphics
For SVGA graphics you need a VESA compliant graphics card
For sound you need a Sound Blaster card

Running the game:

Switch to the drive and subdirectory of the game.
If you have a Sound Blaster sound card type SETUP to configure it.
Type ACROSS to run the game.


Running with Windows and Win95:

Although you may be able to run the game under Windows and Win95, you may
encounter problems. The game may slow down or lock up, the sound may skip.
If this happens, please exit Windows or switch to MS-DOS Mode from Win95,
and run the game in DOS mode.

SVGA graphics:

For SVGA graphics you need a VESA compliant video card. Even if your video
card is not VESA compliant, you can use a software driver to make it VESA 
compliant. For example UNIVBE or Scitech Display Doctor from Scitech 
Software (www.scitechsoft.com).


Troubleshooting information:


If you are running the game and get the message "Not enough memory":

You need at least 6.2MB of free memory to run Action SuperCross.
If you have at least 8MB of physical memory you can correct this problem by
booting clean your computer: If you have DOS 6 or later, boot your system
and hold the left-shift key as the "Starting MS-DOS..." message appears.
If you have DOS 5.0 or earlier, you must create a bare boot disk. In both
cases you have to change to the SuperCross directory manually and type ACROSS.
You don't need to clean boot your computer if you remove from your
autoexec.bat config.sys files enough sofware drivers (like memory managers
EMM386, QEMM, etc., or disk caching programs like SMARTDRV) to free up the
required amount of memory.


You try to switch to a VESA SVGA mode, but get an error message:

Check to see if you started your VESA driver.
If you have a VESA 2.0 or higher driver, you can do the following:
Edit the file SETUP.VES in a simple text editor. Change the first character
of this file from '0' to '1'. This will sign the VESA driver of the game that
you have a VESA 2.0 or higher driver. If you still cannot switch it to the
SVGA mode, then the problem is probably in your video card or driver. Check
if your card has a newer VESA software driver.
