Johnny Castaway Screen Saver
Downloadable Version
Readme File
Version 1.01
Date 2/6/97
Johnny Castaway is the world's first story-telling, screen saver cartoon.
Sure, there are lots of screen savers out there, but you can only watch
fish and flying toasters for so long. Cast off with Johnny and sail into
an ocean of off-the wall gags and knock-out animations! Every time you
take a break, Johnny and his cast launch into hundreds of hilarious situations.
Will Johnny score with the tantalizing mermaid? Can our desert island hero
dodge the jaws of a castaway-eating shark? Will that passing party boat
toss Johnny a line or a lite? Kick back for a minute and Johnny Castaway
floats into sight with a story that constantly twists and turns, bringing
wave after wave of screen-saving surprises to your computer screen.
Johnny even joins you in celebrating specific times of day and major holidays.
He'll have you amused for months with fresh, ever-changing adventures.
So sign up, mate, and take a computer cruise with the Sierra classic screen
saver!

TROUBLESHOOTING
-----------------------------
Doesn't Fill the Entire Screen
Screen Antics uses the 640x480 resolution and does not fill the entire screen
to begin with. On higher resolution systems, such as with 800x600 or
1024x768 it will be even smaller.
Insufficient Memory Message
This usually means that a Swap File is not being used, or the Swap File is too small.
We recommend a Permanent Swap File at LEAST 2 MEG in size, or a Temporary Swap File
at least 3 MEG in size.
