========================================================
A.  Hardware and System Requirements
========================================================

Requirements
========================================================
To play Football, you need:

* A 486/66 MHz computer or higher processor (Pentium 75 or 
  higher recommended)
* Microsoft Windows 95
* A 2X CD-ROM drive or faster
* 8 MB of memory (RAM) (12+ MB recommended)
* 256-color Super VGA display with 1 MB VRAM; 2 MB recommended
* 20 MB of available hard disk space (60 MB recommended)
* A sound board plus speakers or headphones to hear audio
* A Microsoft Mouse or compatible pointing device; joystick or 
  game pad recommended
* For modem play: a Hayes-compatible modem; 9600 baud minimum; 
  14,400 or higher recommended
* For network play: a Windows-compatible network card

Note: Football requires Microsoft Windows 95. To purchase a 
Windows upgrade, see your local retailer.

Enhancing Performance
========================================================
You can enhance the performance of single, tournament, and 
Multiplayer games by doing any or all of the following:
* Close any open applications.
* Be sure that you are not logged on to a network unless you are 
  playing a Multiplayer game.
* Change the game resolution to 640x480. 
* Turn off or reduce the options in the Display and Sound dialog 
  boxes. 

See Q&A in online Help for more information about improving 
performance.

========================================================
B.  Installation and DirectX
========================================================

Installation
========================================================
A Minimal installation places some of the Microsoft Football
components on your hard disk. Choose this option if you want 
to save disk space. A Optimal installation places all the 
Football components on your hard disk.

To manually run setup, double-click on the Setup icon in your 
CD-ROM drive to start installation.

Starting Football
========================================================
After installation Football will start up immediately. If you 
choose to play the game later, you can start Football in two ways:
* Autorun enables the game to start as soon as you place the 
  Football CD-ROM in the disc drive. Autorun may not work properly 
  on some CD-ROM drivers. To work around this, click My Computer 
  on your desktop, and double-click the icon for your C or D 
  drive (your CD-ROM drive). 
* Or click the Start button on the Windows taskbar, point to 
  Programs, and then point to Microsoft Games and click 
  Football.

As the game starts up you will see a video. You can hit any key 
to bypass the video and go directly to the game.

DirectX
========================================================
Setup installs Football and DirectX drivers to your hard drive. 
Football requires these drivers to run. If you install different 
video drivers after installing Football, you may have problems 
running Football.

If you don't already have DirectX installed, the hard drive space 
required will be slightly more than the 60 MB Optimal (20 MB Minimum) 
listed in setup.

If you have the beta release of DirectX 3, Football will not run. To 
fix this, delete or rename the DirectX files in the ..\windows\system 
folder and reinstall Football.

If you are using a 2x CD-ROM drive, you should do a Optimal 
installation for better performance. This installation copies 
more files on to your hard drive, improving the speed of the game.

DirectX and Localisation
========================================================
DirectX is not translated into languages other than English, so 
all DirectX installation and error messages are in US English.

Game Controls
========================================================
Football is easiest to play with game pads such as the Microsoft 
Sidewinder game pad or the Gravis Multiport Gamepad, but some 
PCs are not automatically compatible with these devices yet. 
You can setup game pads and joysticks through the Control Panel. 
For example, to set up the Microsoft Sidewinder game pad:
     1. On the Windows 95 taskbar click Start, Settings, Control Panel.  
     2. Double-click Gaming Devices. 
     3. Select the Microsoft Sidewinder game pad from the list of devices.
     4. Select Settings and/or Test as needed.

Football can also be played with the keyboard and/or mouse. However, 
when selecting your input device(s) from the User Controls screen, 
you may want to choose the Customise button to specify keys and 
buttons other than the defaults, which are listed in the 
booklet that comes with your Football CD-ROM.
You can change game controls while you are setting up a single, 
tournament, or Multiplayer game. However, you cannot change the 
game controls during a game.

The Goodies Folder
========================================================
The "Goodies" folder on the Microsoft Football CD contains three 
items: Internet Explorer 3.0, the Microsoft Games Demo, and the 
Microsoft System Information Application. To get to these items, 
point to the Start button, then to Programs, then to Windows 
Explorer. Then navigate to the "Goodies" folder on your Football CD.

Internet Explorer 3.0
If you haven't installed Internet Explorer 3.0, you can install it 
from the "IE 3.0 for Windows 95" folder. This folder contains the 
following localised versions: English, Brazilian-Portuguese, French, 
German, Italian, and Spanish. To install Internet Explorer, 
double-click the appropriate icon in the folder.

Other localised versions of Internet Explorer 3.0 are available 
at http://www.microsoft.com/ie/ on the Internet's World Wide Web.

Microsoft Games Demo
The Goodies folder contains the Gamedemo folder, which contains the 
Microsoft Games Demo. The Games Demo includes promotions and, 
in some cases, playable demos for other Microsoft games. To run the 
Games Demo, just double-click on the gamesmpl.exe icon in the 
Gamedemo folder.

Microsoft System Information Application
The Goodies folder also contains the Microsoft System Information 
Application. This application is available to help you provide 
information about your system configuration that could assist 
Microsoft Product Support personnel in troubleshooting.

Conflicts with Intellipoint Software
========================================================
If you've installed Intellipoint Mouse software, it may interfere with 
the functionality of Football. Specifically, if the ClickLock option on 
the Productivity tab is on, and you play Football, two clicks are 
required to do what one click ordinarily does. 

========================================================
C.  Audio Troubleshooting
========================================================

If Football does not play sound properly, first verify that: 
* You've correctly installed your Windows 95 sound drivers.
* Your speakers are on and turned up.
* The Windows 95 volume control is enabled and turned up.

If Football still doesn't play sound properly, verify that Windows 
95 can play .wav files:
     1. Click the Start button, point to Settings, and then click 
 	Control Panel.
     2. Double-click the Sounds icon.
     3. Under Events, click an event that has a loudspeaker icon 
 	next to it.
     4. In the Name text box, be sure that the three-letter file 
 	extension is ".wav".
     5. Under Preview, click the play button. You should hear a sound.

If you don't hear any sound, or if Windows 95 is not able to 
 play a .wav file, check to see that a sound driver is enabled:
     1. Click the Start button, point to Settings, and then click 
 	Control Panel.
     2. Double-click the System icon.
     3. Click the Device Manager tab.
     4. Click the plus sign next to Sound, Video And Game Controllers.
     5. If there is no sound, video and game controllers entry, or 
 	you have no sound card listed under this entry, contact the 
 	manufacturer of the computer or sound card and request help 
 	for reinstalling the sound card drivers.

If you are able to play a .wav file in Windows 95, be sure that sounds 
are enabled and recognised in Football:
     1. Start Football.
     2. On the Start Up screen, click Options, and then click Sound.
     3. Make sure that all the red sliders are at least halfway over, 
 	and Mute is turned off, and then click OK.
     4. To check whether Football will play a sound file, click any 
 	button on the Start Up screen.

========================================================
D.  Video Troubleshooting
========================================================

Displaying 256 Colours
========================================================
Your computer must display at least 256 colours to run Football.
If you don't have the necessary 256-color driver, or if you 
aren't sure that your video card supports 256 colours, contact 
your video card manufacturer. 

DirectX Display Problems
========================================================
Football uses DirectX 2.0 technology. In some cases, the DirectX video 
driver may not interact correctly with your video driver. If you 
experience display problems, contact your video card manufacturer 
for the latest DirectX 2.0 drivers. If you continue to experience 
problems with DirectX 2.0 installed, try the following procedures:
     1. Restart your computer in safe mode by pressing F8 when you 
 	see the message "Starting Windows 95."
     2. Click the Start button, point to Settings, and then click 
 	Control Panel.
     3. Double-click the Display icon.
     4. Click the Settings tab.
     5. Click Change Display Type to display the Change Display Type 
 	dialog box.
     6. Under Adapter Type, click Change.
     7. In the Select Device dialog box, select the DirectX-compatible 
 	video driver suggested by your video card manufacturer. If you 
 	do not have a DirectX-compatible video driver, contact your video 
 	card manufacturer for an updated video driver.
     8. Restart your computer to apply the change you have made, and then 
 	start Football.
     9. Reinstall your video drivers. Note that Football will not run 
 	without DirectX drivers.

If you consistently cannot get a game started, DirectX may be having 
problems with your video drivers. Contact your video card manufacturer 
for updated DirectX drivers. See "Video Cards That Don't Support Football" 
to see which video cards have problems with Football.

The Nexgen 586 system doesn't support DirectX, and therefore does not run 
Football. More information may be available on the AMD World Wide Web site at 
http://www.amd.com/html/products/pcd/nx586/support/pscpuid.html.

Video Cards That Don't Support Football
========================================================
If you are using any of the following cards or processors, you 
may experience problems when playing Football. If you experience
problems, please contact your hardware 
manufacturer for the latest DirectX 2.0 video drivers:

* Matrox Millenium video card: download Matrox's latest DirectX driver 
  and latest video driver (version 3.14) from http://www.matrox.com/
* Boca SXVGA5-CLGD5424
* Trident 9440
* Diamond Stealth 64 Video 3400XL S3 Vision 868
* SDIS Weitek 9100
* Any video card using the Hornet Tender Pro video chip
* Some video cards using the Nvidia chip
* Matrox Impression causes display problems
* The ATI Mach 64 PCI video card ships with the ATI Graphics 
  Xpression driver that will not run DirectDraw. Update this driver 
  to the ATI Mach 64 PCI (macxw4) DirectDraw driver version 4.02 
  from ATI Tech Enhanced.
* The Edge 3D PCI Video card and device driver that comes 
  with the Nvidia NV1 chipset will not run DirectX. Update this driver 
  to the Diamond Edge 3D PCI VGA Compatible Device Driver version 4.0 
  from Diamond Multimedia Systems to run DirectX. The Diamond Multimedia 
  Systems World Wide site is: http://www.diamondmm.com/
* The Orchid Technology Kelvin Video 64 PCI card with the Alliance Pro 
  Motion 6410 chipset causes display problems. The DirectDraw driver 
  has trouble changing resolutions when running Windows with a resolution 
  of 1152x864x256 or higher. Change your Windows resolution to 1024x768 
  before running Football, and check the manufacturer for an updated 
  DirectDraw driver.
* The Ark 2000 PV PCI Windows Accelerator has trouble with the cursor if 
  the default Windows mode is not 256-color. The mouse display driver 
  does not handle bit-depth changes properly, so the game switches the 
  screen to 256-color mode. Change your default Windows mode to the 
  256-color mode.

========================================================
E.  Multiplayer Troubleshooting
========================================================

Network and modem games work best when you choose the 
Optimal installation option during Football setup.

During a modem and network Multiplayer game, it may take the 
host's machine (machine that sets up the game) a few minutes to 
set up the game and download the information to the guest's 
machine (machine that joins the game). If you have problems with 
modem games, reconfigure your modem as a standard 28,800 baud or 
14,400 baud modem instead of any modem-specific configuration you 
may be using.

For the guest joining a modem or network game, when the Multiplayer 
screen appears, the Team Editor button is enabled. The guest can make 
changes with the players and teams, but these changes will not be 
reflected in the current game, only in the next Multiplayer game they 
host, or the next single or tournament game they play.

Modem Troubleshooting
========================================================

If you're having trouble playing a Multiplayer game over a modem, 
there are a number of possible fixes:

Turn off flow control and error correction:
     1. On the Start menu, point to Settings, and then click Control Panel.
     2. Double-click Modems.
     3. Make 
	sure your modem is highlighted, then click Properties, and 
	then click the Connection tab.
     4. Click Advanced.
     5. Make sure the User Error Control and Use Flow Control 
	 checkboxes are deselected.

Make sure the FIFO buffers are on:
     1. On the Start menu, point to Settings, and then click Control 
	Panel.
     2. Double-click Modems.
     3. In the Modem Properties dialog box, click Properties, and 
	then the Connection tab.
     4. Click Port Settings.
     5. Make sure that the FIFO buffers checkbox is selected (default)

If you are hosting a game, try waiting for the message box that says 
the connection is established before you click Play Game.

If you're setting up a Multiplayer modem game, and you click the Call 
button, the Windows Dial dialog box appears. Try the following:
* Under the "Connect Using: TAPI Line:" try using different modem 
  drivers.
* If you were hosting and not successfully connecting, call the same 
  modem that was trying to connect to you. (Try this several times.) 
  Sometimes modems will not connect one way, but will connect the other 
  way.

If you're still having trouble with Multiplayer games over a 
modem, try the following:
* Log out of Multiplayer, for both host and guest, and log in 
  again. 
* Quit Football and restart. 
* Restart your computer and restart Football.

If there is more current information on modem problems, it will be 
available on the Microsoft Football website: 
http://www.microsoft.com/sports/soccer/default.htm

NOTE: Changes made to modem settings in the Modem applet will affect 
all modem sessions, and changes made to modem settings via the Windows 
Dial dialog box affect only the current session.
