Introduction
------------
The CD0986 floppy disk enclosed with this Application Note contains
updated Microsoft Windows fonts for use with Microsoft Cinemania 1994.
It also contains a Setup file to install these fonts. These fonts are
intended to correct printing problems that may occur when you are
using Cirrus Logic or other video cards. These problems may include
general protection (GP) faults with DMCOLOR.DLL, printer drivers, or
video drivers.

Installing Updated Fonts for Cinemania 1994
-------------------------------------------
To install the updated Windows fonts, do the following:
1. Quit Windows and/or any other shell or operating environment
   programs, such as MS-DOS Shell. Quit any terminate-and-stay-
   resident (TSR) utilities.
2. Insert the enclosed CD0986 disk in your floppy disk drive.
3. Change to your floppy disk drive by typing either A: or B: at the
   MS-DOS command prompt and pressing ENTER (where either A or B is
   your floppy disk drive directory).
4. At the MS-DOS command prompt, type the following and press ENTER
      setup <x>:\<windir>
   where <x>:\<windir> is the drive and directory where Windows is
   installed. For example, if Windows is located on drive C in a
   directory named WINDOWS, type the following command and press ENTER
      setup c:\windows
   Setup copies the following files from the enclosed CD0986 disk to
   the Windows SYSTEM subdirectory:
      V1SP.FON
      V2SP.FON
      V3SP.FON
      V4SP.FON
      V7SP.FON
5. Restart Windows.
After you complete this procedure, Cinemania should be able to run and
print correctly with Cirrus Logic and other video cards.
