  a dos compatible system, with raw boot or himem.sys or emm386, qemm or other
 vcpi compliant memory manager. this intro doesnt work with some crappy systems
 like windoze or os/2 (tm and stuff).

  a vga or compatible grafix card. vlb or pci one will greatly improve
 performance.

  well, a 386 or better cpu. fast 486 is strongly recommended. this intro will
 work even on 386sx25 but it wont amaze you then. it was developed on
 486dx2/80 and is meant to work on similiar system. i haven't bought 486 to
 code 386 stuff, right ?

  a bit of memory. actually about 550k of low memory and 1.5 meg free of high
 will do. one dude said it has worked on system with 2 megs of total memory.

  a soundblaster or compatible soundcard if you want music. sorry folks,
 still no gus support. i have just got gus (on monday) and today its
 weednesday so i really didnt have time to code gusplayer (although i have
 started). well, maybe i will finish it till friday.
 (uhh dont try mega-em or sbos, they wont help!)

 uff, it seems the intro is finished. Moonlighter is finishing music and
i have some spare time so i'll write some stupid texts.

it was coded entirely in 32 bit protected mode. all effects are calculated
realtime.

the intro uses my own dos extender and sb module replay routine. some
dudes asked about it so i dont know if i ever dare to release that stuff
bcoz i think it still needs lotsa work. besides i dont think that my crappy
extender is good thing to start coding in protected mode. it doesnt have
any documentation. at least it seems to be pretty stable and bug free.
irqs work like god meant them and i havent experienced any compatibility
problems. but if you encounter any let me know.

my sb player doesnt work on some sound galaxy soundcards. it seems to
have problems with initialization. it must be something weird with those
cards bcoz on every other card i have met it works ok. anyway, if you
run some stuff that uses soundblaster right before running my player it
should work ok. and if you buy me or lend me such card i will make a bug
fix.

þ you didnt turn on your machine
þ you use some weird multitasker
þ you have deleted it before running
þ you have run it on your grandma's powerfull PC XT machine
þ you have run it on your dad's mega cool PC AT 286 computer
þ you didnt wash your hands before touching keyboard
þ you have given wrong answers to questions about your soundcard IO port
  and IRQ level
þ your soundcard doesnt use dma channel 1
þ you have tried to start it from windoze
þ you have tried to start it from os/2 (tm)
þ you dont have enough memory, get rid of TSRs, disk caching programs
  and unnecesary drivers, try raw boot
þ your karma isnt good today, try again tomorrow
