 <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< ZONE RAIDERS v1.26 >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

 ===========================================================
  

 REQUIREMENTS
 -----------------
   A math coprocessor is REQUIRED.  A 486SX, 486SX/2, Nx586, 
   or similar chip will not work.  If you have a 486-compatible 
   CPU without a floating-point coprocessor, then Zone Raiders 
   is the best reason yet to get a DX2, DX4, or Pentium upgrade.
   

 ZONE RAIDERS TECH PROBLEMS
 ------------------------------
   Creating a boot disk has been known to correct most problems.

   Most problems encountered in running ZR are probably due to
   insufficient memory available.  Zone Raiders requires about
   6.5 MB of free XMS memory (according to the DOS command 'mem').
   If insufficient XMS memory is available, try to
   free more memory by doing the following:

   - try reducing the amount of SmartDrive cache memory to
     512K (or 256K in extreme cases).  We do NOT recommend that
     SmartDrive be disabled, as it will significantly increase
     disk loading times.  Alter your SmartDrive entry in
     autoexec.bat to read:

     lh c:\dos\smartdrv.exe 512
               or
     lh c:\dos\smartdrv.exe 256

   - if you are using a RAM disk, turn it off completely.
   
   - try creating a boot disk, please refer to the manual for 
     an exact description on how.
