Interchess version 2.1.6 Copyright (C) 1998-1999 Henry Wrightson All Rights Reserved =========================================================================== Installation notes --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Unzip the file ic213.zip to somewhere convenient on your hard drive. This will create a set of setup files. Then simply run the SETUP.EXE program. Alternativly, you can run the setup.exe file direct from inside the ic213.zip file. Touble shooting --------------------------------------------------------------------------- There are a couple of issues with Interchess but they do not occure very often. Once it's installed you may find that it doesn't run and there are two main causes for this. 1) You are using a Dial-up networking connection to the internet and are not connected to the internet. In the bulk of cases this will not be a problem, but if it is, the solution is simple, connect to the internet BEFORE you run Interchess. If you connect to the internet via a LAN you should have no problems at all. 2) The second problem is slightly more odd. It is to do with the Microsoft components I distribute with Interchess. To cut a long story short you may need to install the latest version of DCOM to make it work. If you are running Windows 95 you will need DCOM95 v1.3 or higher and if you are running Windows 98, yes you guessed it, you'll need DCOM98 v1.3 or higher. If you get any other problems I would be interested to hear what they are so send me an email to one of the addresses at the bottem of this email giving me as much informatation as you feel relevant. Thanks. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- 4th September, 1999 Henry Wrightson ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Interchess@HenryWrightson.In2Home.co.uk Interchess@HappyValley.Screaming.net -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
