You must have a mouse attached to
the computer. (We mean the input device;

COMPATIBILITY ISSUES

Please note that this list includes only
the known conflicts and incompatibilities.
Since no test procedure can ever be
totally comprehensive, you may run into
undiscovered problems. Please contact
Customer Support if you do.
We strongly recommend that you do
not run this game under Microsoft
Windows 3.1 or Windows 95.
We strongly recommend that you not
have any terminate-and-stay-resident

playing X-COM: Terror From The Deep.
Not only will they decrease the amount of
free memory available, thus slowing the
game, but there may be unpredictable

2. Try installing the program to an
uncompressed partition on the
hard drive in case Drivespace or
Doublespace or a similar utility is
conflicting in some way with the
installation program.
3. Finally, try installing the game on
another machine to see if the
problem recurs.
This is a startup disk for your
computer that contains alternate
