VI. TROUBLESHOOTING
-------------------------
THQ thoroughly tests its games on a variety of systems before they are released, but it is virtually impossible to test on all combinations of software and hardware. Many of the issues you may encounter are caused by device drivers for video cards, sound cards and CD-ROM drives that are not fully compatible with the Windows operating system and/or DirectX. The following troubleshooting tips are intended to assist you in solving some of the common issues you might experience in relation to the game.
-------DIRECTX 8-------
During the "Rocket Power Extreme Arcade Games" installation process, the program will determine if Microsoft DirectX 8 needs to be installed on your computer. If so, the Microsoft DirectX 8 setup program will install the appropriate files on your computer. After installation of DirectX 8, you may be prompted to restart your machine for the new drivers to take effect.
If you chose not to install DirectX 8, and you find that later you need to install it, follow these directions (Or simply re-install the game making sure to click YES when asked to install DirectX 8):
1. Insert "Rocket Power Extreme Arcade Games" Disc into your CD-ROM drive.
2. Wait a few moments until the "Rocket Power Extreme Arcade Games" splash screen appears.
3. Click on the Install DirectX 8 button.
If you have AutoPlay disabled, you can manually launch the Microsoft DirectX 8 setup program by doing the following:
1. Insert "Rocket Power Extreme Arcade Gamesr" into your CD-ROM drive.
2. Double-click on the My Computer icon on your desktop, then double-click on the CD icon in the My Computer window.
3. After the "Rocket Power Extreme Arcade Games" window is open, double-click on the DXSTEUP Icon, located in the DXSETUP folder.
4. Follow the onscreen instructions.
For those of you unfamiliar with DirectX, it is an API (Application Programming Interface) set that increases the functionality and speed at which games play under the Windows operating system. These API's allow direct access to the enhanced features of hardware under Windows. With DirectX, a program has instant access to the hardware, allowing for great advances in graphics, sound, video, 3D and network capabilities of games.
If you have other Windows games on your computer, chances are you already have an earlier version of DirectX installed. In this case, the Microsoft DirectX 8 setup program will update your files. This should not affect any games using previous versions of DirectX.
Should you encounter problems with DirectX, go to http://www.microsoft.com/directx/ for
additional information.
===================================
Windows 95 users:

Power CD-ROM icon and select "Explore") to find the dcom95.exe installer
in the "support" directory on the Rocket Power CD-ROM. Just double-click on

-------KNOWN ISSUES-------
These are Issues not covered in the "Rocket Power Extreme Arcade Games" documentation.
1. Windows Taskbar Flashes On Screen
2. Game Locks Up With Diamond Video Driver Disabled In The Control Panel
3. Graphic Corruption and Crashes On Riva 128 Chipset Video Cards
4. Graphic Corruption on Riva TNT Video Cards
5. Audio Corruption on sound cards using the Aureal chipset.
1. Windows Taskbar Flashes On Screen
In many versions of Windows, the "AutoHide" and "Always On Top" taskbar settings may cause the taskbar to "flash" in the game. Turning off these settings fixes the problem.
2. Game Locks Up With Diamond Video Driver Disabled In The Control Panel
Make sure that the checkbox "disable in this hardware profile" does not have a check in it. To see how it is set, go to the Control Panel, select the System icon, and click the Device Manager tab. Locate the Diamond video card driver under Game Controllers and select Properties. If you check the box, "disable in the hardware profiles," your computer may lock up. Don't do that!
3. Graphic Corruption and Crashes On Riva 128 Chipset Video Cards
If you are using this video card, you may crash when you select any buttons in the main menu. Part of the display will look corrupted, or "trashed." As is often the case with video problems, downloading and installing the latest drivers from the manufacturer may fix the problem.
4. Graphic Corruption on Riva TNT Video Cards
While playing the game, you may see black vertical lines on your video display. In some cases, these lines continue when you exit the game. New video drivers from the video card manufacturer should fix the problem.
5. Audio Corruption on sound cards using the Aureal chipset. On some sound cards using the Aureal chipset, such as the Monster Sound MX400 series, audio may become corrupted when Direct X Hardware Acceleration is set to Full Acceleration. To fix this problem, follow these steps:
1. From the Start menu, select Run.
2. Type "dxdiag" and click OK.
3. When the Direct X Diagnostic tool opens, click on the Sound tab.
4. Set the Hardware Acceleration slider to Standard Acceleration.
5. Click Exit.

sell, assign or transfer the rights or obligations granted to you in this
Agreement, except as expressly provided in this Agreement. Any assignment in

Program to another person provided that person accepts the terms of this
License Agreement. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be
unenforceable for any reason, such provision shall be reformed only to the
extent necessary to make it enforceable, and such decision shall not affect
the enforceability of: (i) such provision under other circumstances, or (ii)
the remaining provisions hereof under all circumstances. Company's failure to
enforce at any time any of the provisions of this Agreement shall in no way
be construed to be a present or future waiver of such provisions, nor in any
way affect the right of any party to enforce each and every such provision
thereafter. The express waiver by Company of any provision, condition or
requirement of this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of any future
obligation to comply with such provision, condition or requirement.
Notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement, no default, delay or failure
to perform on the part of Company shall be considered a breach of this
Agreement if such default, delay or failure to perform is shown to be due to
causes beyond the reasonable control of Company. This Agreement shall be
governed by the laws of the State of California and the United States without
regard to its conflicts of laws rules and you consent to the exclusive
jurisdiction of the state and federal courts in Los Angeles County,
California. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International
