- Thank you for choosing Photo Show 3D.
-
- There is an extensive online help that you may access from
- the configuration dialog so this file contains only the
- information needed to get you started.
-
- You use Program Manager to install Photo Show 3D. From the
- menu, select "File" and then "Run". Next you type "x:SETUP"
- replacing x with the drive the floppy is in (usually A). If
- you have downloaded PS3D from a BBS or an online service such
- as Compuserve it will probably be on your hard drive so you
- would then also include the name of the directory it is in.
-
- Below is information on configuring Photo Show 3D for
- Windows 3.1 and Windows 95 users.
-
- For Windows 3.1 users
- ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
- You must first run Control Panel. Usually it's in the Main
- group. Then from the Control Panel you must run Desktop.
- In the Desktop setup dialog you first select Photo Show 3D
- as the current screen saver and then click on the Setup
- button to bring up the Photo Show 3D Configuration Dialog.
- Click on the help button for additional information.
-
- For Windows 95 users
- ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
- Move your cursor to any clear space on your desktop,
- then click on the right mouse button and choose Properties.
- Click on the Screen Saver tab and choose the PS3D Screen
- Saver selection from the menu. Use the Settings to adjust
- the features. Pick Preview to test the screen saver, or OK
- to save the settings. Click on the help button for
- additional information.
- =====================================================
-
- This version of Photo Show 3D uses Microsoft's new WinG fast
- graphics library for Windows to support systems running any
- number of colors from 16 to 16 Million. The first time you
- run a WinG application at any given screen resolution it will
- display a box with an strange abstract pattern that it uses
- to test for the fastest way to update the screen on your
- system. You should only see it the first time you run the
- program at that resolution.
-
- If you should receive an error message stating that CTL3D or
- CTL3DV2 has been installed incorrectly it only means that
- there is more than one copy of the file CTL3DV2.DLL on your
- system. All you have to do to correct the problem is to
- delete all but one copy. If there is a copy in the
- \WINDOWS\SYSTEM\ directory, that is the one you should keep.
- It should be safe for you to delete all other copies. If
- there is not a copy in that directory there should be one
- in the \WINDOWS\ directory.
-
- CAUTION: CTL3D.DLL and CTL3DV2.DLL should not be considered
- copies of the same file. If you have both of these
- files on your system you should be careful to keep
- one copy of each.
-
- I hope you enjoy Photo Show 3D and will help to further its
- growth by sharing the original unregistered version,
- PS3D*.ZIP, with your friends.
