Problem Troubleshooting
-----------------------

Please make sure you have the following memory available:
581K Conventional Memory
2.7M Expanded Memory

Refer to your DOS manual for information on memory management.

If you use the QEMM memory manager, there are a couple of
problems that you should be aware of.

1. You should avoid using the STEALTH configuration. This mode
is known to cause problems with Master of Magic. You should
remove the ST:M or ST:F switch from your QEMM386.SYS command
line and then re-optimize. If you need help doing this you can
consult Quarterdeck Office Systems Tech Support at
(310) 392-9701 from 5:30am to 3:30pm EST.

2. It is not recommended that you use Microsoft's SMARTDRV.EXE or
SMARTDRV.SYS with the QEMM memory manager.

Manual Corrections

Sound Troubleshooting
---------------------

If you use a SoundBlaster sound card, you must have your BLASTER
environment variable correctly SET.

If you use a SoundBlaster sound card that is set to IRQ 10, you
may experience problems. Try configuring your card for a lower IRQ.

If you use a Pro Audio Spectrum card, you must have the MVSOUND.SYS
driver properly installed.

If you use a Roland or General MIDI sound card, you may experience
some delays when starting Master of Magic. These cards require a
short initialization period.

If you use a Roland or General MIDI sound card, you may need to turn
your machine off and then back on when changing settings in the
INSTALL program.

--------------
Hints and Tips
--------------
If you would like to skip the intro animation and continue your
current game, you can run the WIZARDS.EXE instead of the MAGIC.EXE.
When you type WIZARDS, the continue save game (SAVE9.GAM) will be
automatically loaded.

Customer Support
----------------
If you are experiencing problems with Master of Magic, you can call
the MicroProse Customer Support Line at (410) 771-1151 weekdays from
9:00am to 5:00pm EST.

THANK YOU FOR PURCHASING MASTER OF MAGIC!
