Q:
When I run Puzzle-Mania, nothing happens.
A:
If your graphic card does not support modes in resolution 640*480
with 256 colors, this happens. This might also happen if any
file is missing from the Puzzle-Mania catalogue. Try to reinstall
Puzzle-Mania to correct this.
Q:
When I run Puzzle-Mania, it loads the palette, then it terminates itself.
Sometimes the games starts, but after a while it still terminates itself .
A:
Puzzle-Mania will end itself if the size of the free conventional
memory is not large enough to satisfy the game. Try to make a boot disk
with less drivers installed.
Q:
There is a slight time-delay before the animations kick in.
A:
In order for the game to use as little memory as possible, the
animations are loaded from the hardrive before the actuall
animation. If your hardrive is slow, the loading time will
increase along with the time-delay between input and animation.
Q:
The animations are no where near 16 frames per second.
A:
Your computer and/or graphic card is to slow.
Q:
When I run Puzzle-Mania from windows 95, and switch between
programs, I can't switch back to the game, instead, it is
terminated.
A:
Puzzle-Mania is at first look a dos game, but windows 95 can run
it. However, if you want to be able to switch between applications
you must first press the "w" key, this prepares Puzzle-Mania for
the switch. When you wish to return to your current game press the
"r" key. No extra scores will be added to your total score while
Puzzle-Mania is in windowed mode.
Q:
The mouse doesnt work.
A:
If you are in dos mode, make sure that you have installed the
mouse drivers into memory.
Q:
There is no sound.

First, make sure that you have the sound toggled on. If there still
isn't any sound, your computer probably does not have a built in
speaker.
Q:
The colors looks ugly.
A:
Your monitor is probebly to old. Some old monitors does this.
