     Welcome to Weierheiser Concepts Graliens Game Installation Program
******************************************************************************

                       THIS IS ONLY A DEMO - NOT FOR SALE
        
        There are a few things that you should know about this software
        before you install it. 

      ********This is a DOS program and WILL NOT run from WINDOWS********



System Requirements:    Minimum 386-40Mhz (486-66Mhz recommended)
                        3 Megabytes Free Hard Drive Space
                        4 Megabytes of RAM
                        590K Free Processor Memory
                        Mouse or Joystick
                        Sound Card 
                        256 color VGA graphics (320x200 min)
                        DOS 5.0 or better


Most Importantly:       The very most common problem found with 
                        running this software on most machines 
                        is the BASE PROCESSOR MEMORY.

                        You will need every bit of 590K free on
                        your processor.

                        Q: How do I find out how much I have on
                           my processor.

                        A: Leave this installation program by 
                           pressing "ESC" and then answering
                           "N" to the shall we continue question.

                           You should be at the DOS prompt. If you
                           are not, and you are trying to install
                           this program through WINDOWS, you must
                           first exit and return to DOS. 

                           Then type at the prompt " MEM/C/P ".
                           This will give you all the TSR's or
                           TERMINAL STAY RESIDENT programs loaded
                           into your processor. You will also see
                           a message saying - Largest Executable
                           Progam  "590K".

                           If the number after Largest Executable
                           Program is less than 590K then Graliens 
                           will not run.
                          
        Now What ?
                        Okay, it's not the end of the world. You just
                        need to do one of two things. The first option
                        is for the experienced DOS user and should be
                        bypassed by the novice !  If you don't know 
                        what you're really doing in DOS then go to 
                        the second option !

               Option   1) You can run a DOS program called MEMMAKER
                           if you are an experienced DOS user.  If you
                           are not, please do not try this.  You may 
                           make the wrong selections and end up trashing
                           your system.

                           If you are an experienced DOS user do as follows.

                           A) Return to the DOS prompt.
                           B) Type "MEMMAKER" and press "ENTER"
                           C) Chose Custom Set-up
                           D) You will want to use EMS
                           E) Give your Windows directory if you
                              have it on your system.
                           F) At this point you will be on a 
                              screen with six different options.
                              The ones you will want to answer yes
                              to are - Use the Upper Memory Blocks
                              for running programs - Use the Monocrome
                              Region for running programs. The bottom 
                              two are already answered yes by default.
                              Leave them alone.
                           G) Press enter and MEMMAKER will begin to
                              the rest. You will have to answer a few
                              yes or no questions along the way. Just 
                              give the obvious answer and everything 
                              will be fine.
                           H) After MEMMAKER is finished you will be 
                              presented with a comparison of what you 
                              had before and after. This is the big
                              shakedown. On the Top of the AFTER side
                              of the screen it should read at the very 
                              least, 590K. 
                              
                           ****NOTE****
                           IF YOU REALLY KNOW YOUR SYSTEM AND UNDERSTAND
                           WHAT A TSR IS AND YOU STILL DO NOT HAVE ENOUGH
                           BASE MEMORY YOU CAN RUN MEMMAKER AGAIN AND
                           ANSWER YES TO SPECIFY WHICH TSR'S TO INCLUDE.
                           I MUST WARN YOU THOUGH, IF YOU CHOSE TO EXCLUDE
                           THE WRONG TSR'S YOU COULD TRASH YOUR AUTOEXEC.BAT
                           AND CONFIG.SYS FILES. HERE IS A LIST OF SAFE TSR'S
                           TO EXCLUDE BELOW.

                           1) DIAGNOSTIC PROGRAMS
                           2) DOSKEY
                           3) VOLUME CONTROL
                           4) SCREEN UTILITIES
                           5) SCREEN CAPTURE
                           6) MUSIC CD UTILTY ( NOT TO BE CONFUSED WITH
                                                MSCDEX OR ANY OTHER CD
                                                DRIVERS )
                           7) ANTI-VIRUS PROGRAMS
                        
                        
              Option    2) If you're reading this section either 
                           MEMMAKER has failed to perform to your
                           needs or you are ready to take the easy 
                           way out.  This is the most simple yet 
                           annoying cure for the memory requirement 
                           problem.

                           A) Go ahead and install the software on 
                              your machine.

                           B) Then try running the program. 

                           C) If you do not have enough BASE MEMORY
                              a blue screen will appear with four
                              options. Chose the one that says make
                              a bootable floppy.

                           D) The program will explain itself from
                              there. Just follow the simple steps
                              and everything will be fine.



I Don't Have A Memory Problem:

                        If you know for a fact that you do not have
                        a memory problem,.... THAT'S GREAT !
                        Install the game and have fun.
