=============================================================================
Jill of the Jungle is a Nintendo-style arcade adventure game with 256-color

sound track. This immense game world, Volume I in the Jill series,
challenges both your mind and your arcade reflexes -- fun for the whole
family!

for your PC. Our 20-person team is busy at work to make new products to

HINT
This game is equiped with a "Save" feature -- so remember to save your game
often. Later on, if your bratty little brother unplugs the computer
while you are playing, you won't need to start over!
HOW TO START:
To go, just type JILL from the DOS prompt -- and you're ready to begin.
If you don't have a 100% IBM-compatible computer with at least 512K of RAM
and color graphics, go buy one now! Jill is a high-tech game which requires
a lot of computing power (An 80286 processor is recommended).
NOTE TO SOUND BLASTER OWNERS:
Jill sports a musical sound track and digitized sound effects. If you
experience trouble with Jill (lockups or aborts), try booting from a blank
floppy disk with no TSR's loaded. If this doesn't solve the problem, your
best bet is to <gasp> TURN OFF THE DIGITAL SOUND EFFECTS and MUSIC.
Sorry, Jill doesn't support the Adlib card. Only Sound Blaster & compatibles.
NOTE TO OS/2 USERS
On some computers, Jill only runs under OS/2 with ALL SOUND DISABLED. So if
Jill isn't working properly under OS/2, run the game by typing:
JILL /NOSND
TROUBLE-SHOOTING
If Jill locks up when you first run the game, type:
JILL /NOSB (if you don't have a Sound Blaster)
JILL /SB (if you do have a Sound Blaster)
JILL /NOSND (as a last resort, disables all sound)
If Jill is giving you intermittent problems, boot from a blank floppy disk
with no TSR's in memory. You might possibly run into problems with:
- Memory managers like QEMM
- Disk Caches
- Any other kind of TSR program
Make sure your FILES= and BUFFERS= lines in CONFIG.SYS are set to at least 25.
