Wacky Jacks: System Requirements (12/93)

What are the system requirements of the CD-ROM game, Wacky Jacks?

The Wacky Jacks game has the following system requirements:

1) A Macintosh LC III computer or other color Macintosh with a 68030 or faster
processor (68040 recommended), 4 megabytes of memory (5 megabytes
recommended), and System 7.1 or later.

2) A Macintosh-compatible 12-inch or larger RGB monitor which displays at
least 640 by 480 pixels and 256 colors.

3) A Macintosh-compatible CD-ROM drive (double-speed CD-ROM drive
recommended).

4) 1600K minimum allocated memory (1800K preferred) to run the game.


Number of Colors
----------------
If your Macintosh computer is not set to 256 color mode, you will receive an
error message. To set your Macintosh to display 256 colors, follow these
steps:

1) Select Control Panel from the Apple Menu, then double-click on Monitors.

2) Select 256 and click on Color in the Monitor Control Panel, then close the
control panel by clicking the close-box.

If your Macintosh does not support 256 colors, you must add VRAM or a video
board that supports 256 colors.

Number of Pixels
----------------
If your monitor does not display at least 640 by 480 pixels, you will receive
an error message. You must attach such a monitor to your Macintosh to play
Wacky Jacks. Note that there is a special version of Wacky Jacks which will
run on a 12-inch monitor or a Color Classic, but some graphics may be cropped
and other items may not be centered on the screen.

Memory
------
If you do not have enough memory available, your system may suddenly "crash"
or stop operating. If this happens, follow these steps:

1) Go to the Finder and select About this Macintosh from the Apple Menu. The
largest unused block must be at least 1600K.

2) If you do not have this much memory, remove extensions and/or control
panels that are not needed to run Wacky Jacks.

Note that using Virtual Memory will cause Wacky Jacks to run erratically and
is not recommended.
