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