Addendum to the Caesar Manual(Please Read Me First)

These instructions replace the install instructions found on pages 6-7 of the Caesar manual. All other instructions in theCaesar manual are correct and valid.

Times certainly have changed since 1993. In that simpler time, DOS-based games were king. Now, we live in a Windows world, and someof the install instructions in the Caesar manual are now obsolete.Please follow these instructions instead:

First, Windows 95/98 users will need to determine theirInput/Output (I/O) and Interrupt Request (IRQ) settings by follow-ing these directions:

1. Go to Start Settings Control Panel2. Double click on System, and select the Device Manager

tab.3. Double click on Sound, Video & Game Controllers.4. From the list that appears, click on your sound card, then

Now, download the zip files that contain the Caesar files to your harddrive (if you havent already). Unzip the files using WinZip or PKZip.

Then, follow these instructions:

1. Go to Start Programs MS-DOS Prompt.2. Change the DOS prompt to the directory and folder into
