- Introduction
- ============
- This new installer allows you to install the game even
- if your computer system does not appear to meet the
- minimum system requirements. This should solve any
- problems with installing STAR TREK: THE NEXT
- GENERATION "A Final Unity" on NexGen machines
- since they are detected as 386 machines.
-
- Instructions
- ============
- To make sure you have the latest version of the
- installer, type "DIR INSTALL.EXE" and look for a file
- creation date of 07-07-95.
-
- To run the new installer:
-
- 1. Change to the drive and directory where the new
- installer is located.
-
- 2. Type "INSTALL -D[d]" where [d] is the letter of
- the CD-ROM drive. For example, if your CD-ROM drive
- is D, type "INSTALL -DD" at the DOS prompt. If your
- CD-ROM drive is F, type "INSTALL -DF".
-
- 3. Follow the instructions onscreen and in the
- Installation and Loading Guide.
-
- NexGen Computers
- ================
- Because the NexGen procesoor is not completely
- compatible with the Intel 80486 instruction set, "A
- Final Unity" will not run. The game will crash with
- a DOS/4GW error message.
-
- However, you can work around this problem by changing
- your CMOS configuration. If you are not an experienced
- computer user, we recommend you consult your computer
- dealer in order to change your CMOS configuration.
- If you do feel comfortable changing your CMOS
- configuration, first reboot your computer and hold
- down the DELETE key as it reboots. Then choose
- "Chipset" from the Setup options. Click on "Alternate
- Instructions" to turn that option ON. Press ESC and
- choose "Save changes and Exit."
-
- In addition, Tactical space combat will run slower
- because of the NexGen's lack of a math coprocessor.
