First, I would like to thank you for purchasing the Accessible Games 8 Pack.
I need the support of the blind community in order to continue developing new games, so thank you very much!

You must have the trial versions of all 8 Accessible Games installed on your system before you install the registered versions.

It does not matter how many days you have remaining on your trial period, or if your trial period has expired.  The registered versions will unlock the trial versions making them full registered versions with no restrictions.

You must also have the Visual Basic Run Time Library installed on your system.

The trial versions and Visual Basic Run Time Library may be downloaded from the Accessible Games web site at:
http://www.GamesForTheBlind.com

The 8Pack.exe file is a self-extracting file.  By default, it creates a directory on your harddrive named c:\8Pack.

These instructions assume you did not change the installation directory in the previous step.  If you did change the installation directory, in the installation instructions below, just replace the directory name 8Pack with the name of the directory you entered.

As mentioned, a directory named c:\8Pack has now been created on your harddrive.  The c:\8Pack directory should now contain the following files:
ReadMe.txt, the file you are currently reading.
battle.exe, the registered version of Accessible Battleship.
black.exe, the registered version of Accessible BlackJack.
freecell.exe, the registered version of Accessible FreeCell.
memory.exe, the registered version of Accessible Memory.
simon.exe, the registered version of Accessible Simon.
wordplay.exe, the registered version of Accessible WordPlay.
scramble.exe, the registered version of Accessible Word Scramble.
yahtzee.exe, the registered version of Accessible Yahtzee.

The registered versions are all self-extracting files.  When you run these files, you will first be presented with the Copyright information and an OK button.

Press the enter key on the OK button to continue.

Next, you will be permitted to change the installation directory of the game.  It is strongly recommended that you do not change the installation directory.

Use the tab key to move to the Unzip button, and press the enter key to install the game.

Once the installation is complete, you will be presented with a window informing you that 1 file was unzipped successfully, and an OK button.

Press the enter key to close this window, and you will return to the installation program.

The installation will be completed, so use the tab key to move to the Close button, and press the enter key to close the installation program.

After closing the installation program, the games and their help files will be available from the Accessible Games folder on your Programs menu.
