FAQ: 1. Problem: No background music or combat sounds. Solution: Connect a set of speakers to the headphone jack on the CD-ROM drive. Make sure the sound patch cable is installed from the audio out port on the back of the CD-ROM drive to the CD sound in port on the sound card.

2. Problem: No animation. Solution: Not enough conventional memory free. This game requires 550K conventional memory and 1024K free expanded memory.

3. Problem: Can't find "INTERPLAY.CMP". Solution: Change active drive to the CD-ROM drive. Switch active directory to "CDCHESS" directory. Then run the "INSTALL" program.

4. Problem: Upgraded to MS DOS version 6.0 and can't use CD anymore. Solution: Use "MSCDEX.EXE" version 2.22 or later that should be located in the "DOS" directory.

5. Problem: Receive "CDR-101 not ready error Abort, Retry, or fail?". Solution: The CD-ROM is not in the drive, the CD-ROM is bad or is incompatible with the CD-ROM drive.
