WINDOWS 95 TROPEZ INSTALLATION
------------------------------

1.0 GENERAL NOTES

* If you have installed Windows 95 and have not yet installed the 
Tropez, DO NOT use the installation disks that came with the Tropez. A 
three disk DOS based installation program that vastly improves the 
installation procedure and is Windows 95 friendly is available. This 
installation is available from Turtle Beach's BeachComber bulletin board 
or from CompuServe. See the end of this document for information on how 
to access these resources and obtain the 3 disk DOS based installation.

* Do not use the Sierra Audio Rack program in Stealth mode. This will 
cause a General Protection Fault.

* The Turtle Beach CD Player (TBCD) displays a white rectangle next to 
the of the main controls. This only affects the appearance of the Player 
and not the functionality.

* There are some reports of MicroWave not being usable as an OLE server. 
For now, do not use MicroWave as an OLE server.

* If you wish only to install the driver, not the applications, you can 
use the .INF file located on the BBS.  This should be installed from the 
"Add new Hardware" section of the Windows 95 control panel.  Do not have 
Windows 95 search for the new hardware, it will not find it.  Where 
appropriate, click on the "Have-Disk" icon to install the file.

1.1 INSTALLATION OF THE TROPEZ IN WINDOWS 95

A) The Tropez was already installed, and you installed Win95 over (into 
the same directory) an existing Windows installation.

Generally, if you install Win95 over your currently existing Windows 
installation, Turtle Beach products will work as they did before. This 
is not always the case, however, and you may need to make adjustments to 
your current setup.  After Windows 95 installation, goto section 1.2 of 
this document to register the Tropez in the Windows 95 Device Manager.

B) You installed Win95 into a different directory than an existing 
Windows installation, or have not yet installed the Tropez.

In either of these cases, a new install of the Tropez will be necessary.  
This more recent install can be found on the Beachcomber BBS.  The file 
names of the three disks are "TROPMK21.ZIP," "TROPMK22.ZIP," & 
"TROPMK23.ZIP."
The phone numbers for the Beachcomber are (717) 767 - 0250 and 
(717) 767 - 5934.  

NOTE: The new install should be run from DOS REAL MODE ONLY.

To get Windows 95 into DOS Real Mode, do the following:

	1) Go to the "Start" button on the Windows 95 taskbar.
	2) Choose "Shut Down"
	3) Choose "Reset the computer in MS-DOS mode." 
	4) When the computer reaches the c:\ prompt, insert Disk 1 in the 
	A: drive
	5) Type "a:\install"
	6) Proceed with the install.

2.0 DOWNLOADING THE NEW TROPEZ INSTALL FROM THE BBS

* The Tropez install can be found in the Tropez group of the File 
section of the Beachcomber BBS.  The name of the files are 
"TROPMK21.ZIP," "TROPMK22.ZIP," AND "TROPMK23.ZIP."  The phone numbers 
for the Beachcomber are (717) 767-0250 and (717) 767-5934.  When logging 
onto the BBS for the first time, you will be asked to register, which 
includes assigning yourself a BBS password.  If you are prompted that 
your password is not valid, someone may have already registered with 
that name.  Please try logging in with a new name.
