- USER TIPS
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
- 1. Instructions in the product are written on screen and voiced, but don't be afraid to
- move your mouse around to explore.
-
- 2. On screens where more than one typing field occurs, you can either move your
- mouse and cursor to the appropriate field, or you can use your tab key to tab to each
- active field.
-
- 3. On screens with video segments, clicking on the video with your mouse will play
- the video again.
-
- 4. You are given the option to print in several locations in the product. Upon exiting
- the program you will also have the option to print all of your input data or save it to
- a text file; notepad data is saved throughout. The notepad is a kind of running journal
- that exists in a window that can be moved around the screen and opened and closed
- at the user's discretion without losing entries.
-
- 5. The sound control is in a window that can be moved around the screen; just grab the
- bar at the top of the control window with the mouse and move it. It can be left open
- at the menu level and travel through the activities with you for easy sound control.
- The background music can be turned on and off within this sound controller as well.

-
- OPTIMIZING PERFORMANCE
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
- There are many things you can do to optimize the performance of The Alliance CD.
- Consider the following list of options:
-
- 1. Make sure that your monitor’s resolution is set to 256 colors.
-
- 2. Make sure that you have a current, functional version of QuickTime or QuickTime
- for Windows. Otherwise video and animations will not work. On the Macintosh be sure
- that QuickTime has not been disabled in your Extensions Manager.
-
- 3. If you are running other applications in the background—no matter how simple or
- complex the application—performance may suffer. Quit all applications other than
- The Alliance CD.
-
- 4. If you are on a network or on the Internet, your chances of experiencing freezes,
- crashes, and poor video/audio are much greater than if you are not.
-
- 5. If you have been running any memory-intensive applications prior to running
- The Alliance CD, restart your machine before running the program.
-
- 6. If the total memory requirement of your system software and this program
- approaches the limits of your machine’s total RAM, performance will suffer.
- Consider upgrading your machine’s memory.
-
- 7. On the Macintosh try turning off your computer’s Virtual Memory.
