- Getting Started with Active Life
- --------------------------------
-
- Starting Active Life for Windows:
- Starting Active Life for OS/2 PM:
-
- Active Life for Windows and Active Life for OS/2 PM are ready to
- run once you've unzipped the files. Run AL.exe.
-
-
- Starting Active Life for DOS:
-
- Active Life for DOS requires first running the 1Soft setup program.
- Run SETUP.exe.
-
- You will be asked to select which type of display and mouse (if any)
- that you are using. Choose among the following display adapters:
-
- 1. Monographics (Hercules compatible monochrome graphics)
- 2. CGA* (most laptop's and PS/2 models 25, 30)
- 3. EGA
- 4. VGA (PS/2 models 50+)
-
- (* On a CGA, Active Life requires the high resolution mode (640x200).
- This mode supports only 2 colors (eg. black and white). To run Active
- Life in full color, you need a VGA or EGA display.)
-
- To change your settings, simply run SETUP again at any time.
-
- Choosing the correct display and mouse (or no mouse) is critical. If
- Active Life is started with inaccurate settings it will not run. To
- make corrections, simply run SETUP again.
-
- When settings are correct and Active Life for DOS still does not run,
- it may be due to a conflict with a resident program (.exe) or driver
- (.sys). To pinpoint the problem, we suggest you temporarily modify
- your CONFIG.sys and AUTOEXEC.bat files so no resident programs and
- drivers are included. Re-boot your machine and try AL.bat. If AL runs
- OK with a clean system, add each TSR or driver back, one at a time,
- rebooting between each change. Call 1Soft technical support if you
- need any assistance. 800/326-4391 or 707/987-0256.

- On-line Tutorial, Help, and Reference Guides:
-
- The first time you start AL, press Enter to clear the opening
- welcome message. After the main window appears, choose HELP from
- the menu bar by pressing ALT+H (hold down the ALT key and press H).
- A pull-down menu will appear. Then press Enter to open the first
- guide: Interface Basics; or choose another guide from the list.
-
- The on-line guides are available only in the Windows and DOS
- editions. These guides contain complete information on Active Life.
- In the OS/2 PM edition, the same information appears in a text file
- named AL.doc.
