Thank you for choosing Photo Show 3D.

There is an extensive online help that you may access from 
the configuration dialog so this file contains only the 
information needed to get you started.

You use Program Manager to install Photo Show 3D.  From the 
menu, select "File" and then "Run".  Next you type "x:SETUP" 
replacing x with the drive the floppy is in (usually A).  If 
you have downloaded PS3D from a BBS or an online service such 
as Compuserve it will probably be on your hard drive so you 
would then also include the name of the directory it is in.

Below is information on configuring Photo Show 3D for 
Windows 3.1 and Windows 95 users.

For Windows 3.1 users
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
You must first run Control Panel.  Usually it's in the Main 
group.  Then from the Control Panel you must run Desktop.  
In the Desktop setup dialog you first select Photo Show 3D 
as the current screen saver and then click on the Setup 
button to bring up the Photo Show 3D Configuration Dialog. 
Click on the help button for additional information.

For Windows 95 users
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Move your cursor to any clear space on your desktop, 
then click on the right mouse button and choose Properties. 
Click on the Screen Saver tab and choose the PS3D Screen 
Saver selection from the menu.  Use the Settings to adjust 
the features. Pick Preview to test the screen saver, or OK 
to save the settings.  Click on the help button for 
additional information.
=====================================================  

This version of Photo Show 3D uses Microsoft's new WinG fast 
graphics library for Windows to support systems running any 
number of colors from 16 to 16 Million.  The first time you 
run a WinG application at any given screen resolution it will 
display a box with an strange abstract pattern that it uses 
to test for the fastest way to update the screen on your 
system.  You should only see it the first time you run the 
program at that resolution.

If you should receive an error message stating that CTL3D or 
CTL3DV2 has been installed incorrectly it only means that 
there is more than one copy of the file CTL3DV2.DLL on your 
system.  All you have to do to correct the problem is to 
delete all but one copy.  If there is a copy in the 
\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\ directory, that is the one you should keep.  
It should be safe for you to delete all other copies.  If 
there is not a copy in that directory there should be one 
in the \WINDOWS\ directory.

CAUTION: CTL3D.DLL and CTL3DV2.DLL should not be considered 
         copies of the same file.  If you have both of these 
         files on your system you should be careful to keep 
         one copy of each.

I hope you enjoy Photo Show 3D and will help to further its 
growth by sharing the original unregistered version, 
PS3D*.ZIP, with your friends.
