  13. Here's a Windows95 tip that I wish was
  14. in one of the readme files that came with
  15. Executor.  It should help you get the best
  16. possible use out of Executor.  It did for me.
  17. (God knows I tried everything!)
  18.  
  19.  
  20. After trying 3 top notch Linux OS's with
  21. E/L (and E/D under DOS) I have come to the 
  22. conclusion that Windows95 is the best way
  23. to run Executor.
  24.  
  25. With a shortcut on my desktop to the executor.exe
  26. file and the following "Properties" set, you can't
  27. go wrong (even with 8 meg of ram).
  28.  
  29. The "Memory" tab;
  30.  
  31. Conventional Memory-Auto
  32. Initial Environment-Auto
  33. Expanded(EMS)memory-None
  34. Extended(XMS)memory-None
  35. MS-DOS protected-mode(DPMI)memory-13312
  36.  
  37. And these command line switches;
  38. eg: c:\executor\executor.exe -nosplash -nosound -applzone 5m
  39.  
  40. I really only bought Linux (Official RedHat 3.0.3, Slackware 3.0 and
  41. Linux-FT) just to see if Executor would be better under it, it wasn't.
  42.  
  43. I hope I helped somebody;)
