USING THE ALTERNATE DISPLAY MODES If the game runs too slowly on your machine, or if the movies are jerky, you may want to try the alternate display modes. Instead of typing ABE to start the game, use : INTRLINE Every other line is blacked out. VDOUBLE Lines are doubled (this may not work on some display cards such as ATI Mach64). ------------------------------------------------------------------- SMARTDRIVE For smooth playback of the game, you should have SMARTDRV.EXE enabled. Do this by typing SMARTDRV before running ABE. ------------------------------------------------------------------- TECHNICAL SUPPORT (U.S. & CANADA) Assistance Via World Wide Web Get up-to-the-minute technical information at the GT Interactive Software web-site, at http://www.gtisonline.com, twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week.
