On a 1 megabyte Macintosh II, the Guided Tour disk will not launch if the Monitors control panel setting has been changed to:
1. Colors
2. 16 shades/levels
3. or both
The additional RAM required by Color QuickDraw for data manipulation causes the memory available for the Guided Tour to decrease below the required 960K. The shipping default settings are Black & White and 2 colors.
On a Macintosh II with 2MB of RAM, even with the RAM Cache set to 1536K and Monitor control panel set to 256 Colors, the Guided Tour always boots. RAM Cache settings are ignored by the Guided Tour system file.
