- HEROES OF MIGHT AND MAGIC
- -------------------------
-
-
- Troubleshooting
- ---------------
-
- If you are having trouble running Heroes of Might and Magic and you
- are running EMM386 or MemMaker try:
-
- 1. Typing EMM386 OFF at your command prompt
-
- If EMM386 reports InActive then Heroes should run properly.
-
- Note: You will need to type EMM386 OFF everytime you reboot
- your computer.
-
- 2. Try REMing out EMM386 in your CONFIG.SYS:
-
- type the following at your command prompt and hit ENTER.
-
- EDIT C:\CONFIG.SYS
-
- (This will edit your system configuration)
-
- find the line
-
- DEVICE=C:\DOS\EMM386.EXE
-
- or the like and add to the front of the line REM ... i.e.
-
- REM DEVICE=C:\DOS\EMM386.EXE
-
- go to the File Menu and Select Exit and answer YES to save
- the changes.
-
- If you need to re-install EMM386 for any reason you can remove
- the REM at the front of the line.
-
- You will need to re-boot your computer for this change to take effect.
-
-
- If the install program says you do not have enough free space to Install
- Heroes of Might and Magic.
-
- 1. If you are running DoubleSpace, DriveSpace, Stacker or any kind of
- disk compression:
-
- a. Dos reports what the disk compressor tells it to report and
- not the TRUE value of Disk Space available.
-
- Your must free up space to install Properly. Failure to ensure
- enough REAL space is available will result in Heroes not
- functioning properly.
-
- 2. If you are running from Windows or Windows 95:
-
- a. Windows tends to save the files even after they have been deleted
- or moved to the Recycle Bin.
-
- b. Norton Utilities also will report more Disk Space then is available
- due to the Recycle Bin and protecting deleted files.
-
- c. Even though Dos reports you have enough free Disk Space you
- can only use whatever space if really available.
-
- Fix:
-
- If you are running Windows 95 and Norton Utilities for Windows 95
- you must select the Recycle Bin by clicking with the Right Mouse
- Button, then selecting Empty Norton Protected Files.
-
- If you are using another version of a Utilitiy that saves deleted
- files then you must discard those files as well.
-
