IV. Troubleshooting and Performance Tips
------------------------------------
Color settings for Sabrina:
--------------------------
Sabrina, The Teenage Witch(TM): Spellbound performs best at
256(8bit) color mode. If your monitor is set to a higher color mode
it is strongly recommended that you switch to 256 colors before
playing Sabrina. Testing has shown that Sabrina will not run on
most Windows machines set to True Color(32 bit) mode.
If the program is very slow:
----------------------------
1. Close any unnecessary applications that may be running.
2. Make sure your display setting is at 640x480 resolution
and 256 colors mode. Refer to your system or Windows documentation.
If display problems occur:
--------------------------
If you experience graphics problems while running Sabrina, The
Teenage Witch(TM): Spellbound, contact your video card or system
vendor to obtain the latest version of their video driver.
Make sure the system is running in 256 color mode in 640x480
resolution.
To change the display settings:
1. Click the START button, then select SETTINGS, then
CONTROL PANEL.
2. Double-click the Display icon.
3. Choose the Settings tab.
4. Select 256 for the color palette and 640x480 for desktop area.
5. Click the Apply and OK buttons.(The system may need to restart.)
If sound problems occur:
------------------------
If you experience sound problems while running Sabrina, The
Teenage Witch(TM): Spellbound, contact your sound card or system
vendor to obtain the latest version of their sound driver.
Screen savers:
--------------
If you are running a screen saver in the background and experience
video and sound problems during the program, disable the
screen saver and the problem should be solved. Refer to your
screen saver documentation on how to disable the screen saver.
Windows TaskBar
