	This program is an animated talking head. The program has two parts, 
	a Windows screen saver and a Windows program. The original DOS 
	program responded to microphone input, but was abandoned when 
	Creative Labs could provide no support for their newer sound card 
	drivers to owners of the original developers kit.

	An install program was not included to make the upload/downlaod file 
	size smaller To install the program , copy the files 'WP.DLL' and 
	'BIG.SCR' to your Windows directory, then create a directory off the 
	root directory called  'BIGWIN' and copy the rest of the files there. 
	Another way to install the program would be to unzip all the files in 
	your Windows directory. Set up the screen saver with Windows Control 
	Panel Desktop by selecting  'Big' as the screen saver. Then add 
	Bignivek (BIG.WIN) to one of your program groups.  
	
	The screen saver displays Bignivek (Big) and moves him about the 
	screen. He will say something randomly so give him some time to 
	respond. When you move the mouse or touch the keyboard he disappears. 
	The BIGWIN program is based on the DOS version. Bignivek (BIGWIN.EXE) 
	is a soothsayer like the old magic 8 ball. Launch the program, then 
	ask Bignivek a question like "Will I hit the lottery?" then click 
	anywhere on the screen and he will answer. If you leave him alone to 
	long he falls asleep. Click once on his nose to wake him. To quit the 
	program double click anywhere on Bignivek's face.
	
	Note: This program looks best when displayed with a Windows 256 color 
	mode. The program requires a 386/20 or better. It also requires the 
	Visual Basic runtime library file VBRUN300.DLL. There is a good 
	chance you already have this file in your Windows directory, if not 
	it is available for download from this service and all major 
	bulletin boards. 
	
	The registered version will allow you to control the screen saver and 
	the program in a number of ways including the frequency of Bignivek's 
	responses, how often he moves etc. You will also be able to add your 
	own 'Wav' files to what he says. 

	To register this program and receive the upgrade send $9.00 to
