Q:     I have Albatros installed, but when i try to start it, it says MDM.*** not found
       or the Program does not start and instead shows a settings page

A:     Please install MMPM/2 for OS/2 


Q:     I have MMPM/2 installed, but Albatros shows "NO DISC" even when there is a
       AUDIO CD in the drive

A:     There are two possible solutions :
       1)  You installed MMPM/2 but forgot to Install CD ROM Support, just reinstall
           CD ROM support in MMPM/2 again

       2)  You installed CD ROM Support in MMPM/2 but the Path is incorrect:
           Check in the MMPM/2 Setup whether the CD Rom is pointing to the correct 
           Drive Letter


Q:     Albatros starts fine, but there is no sound comming through the speaker, even when i turn
       Albatros' Volume Knob

A:     This problem is usually related to your sound card, when the CD ROM wiring is connected to 
       the internal CD ROM input of your Sound Card. This input of your sound card is sometimes 
       set to "0"

       You will now have to use a PMMIXER for your sound Card to enable the CD ROM Sound input to
       anything higher than "0"

       On an IBM machine it might help to start the Wave Editor Applet to restore your CD Sound
       ( sounds strange, but works ! )


Q:     Albatros shows a totally black display ( I had Version 1.2 and everything was fine, 
       now i upgraded to 1.5 )

A:     The color selector has changed. Please go to Notebook Page Three and Select COLOR-DEFAULT, 
       this will restore your Colors.


Q:     What is the Font Developers Kit good for ?

A:     To create you own LCD Style Fonts ( It requires the OS/2 Programming Toolkit )


Q:     I had quite a few Titles entered in CD EXPLORER, do I have to type them again?

A:     No, use the StealTXT.CMD file for extracting titles from the CD Eplorer INI File


Q:     When i try to select a new color from the color palette and drop it on the color
       preview page, the color of the background is changed, but not the foreground

A:     Please use CTRL-Right mouse button to change foreground color


Q:     I am using WARP II Beta and there is no CD ROM Support ?

A :    
       *) Open a session (Dos or Os/2)
