SYMPTOMS

When you attempt to start The Ultimate Haunted House on a Windows 3.1x- based computer, you may receive a "General Protection Fault" error message.

CAUSE

This behavior can occur if your display adapter is based on a Cirrus Logic chip set and you need to update the video drivers.

The Svga.exe file is available as a free download from the following Microsoft Internet sites:

MORE INFORMATION

Versions 1.32 and 1.4 of the Cirrus Logic video display drivers work well with The Ultimate Haunted House. Version 1.43 of the Cirrus Logic video driver may be incompatible with The Ultimate Haunted House.
