This game consists of multiple brain teaser type puzzles.

Windows 3.1/Windows 95
Image:
COU
Online Help:
There is an icon created in the Sierra program group called Dr. Brain 3 Online Help.
Modifications Made:
Directories where files are located on the Image:
\SIERRA\DRBRAIN3. A SIERRA.INI file is copied to the C:\WINDOWS directory. After all Sierra titles are uninstalled the SIERRA.INI file is changed to SIERRA.IN~. This should not cause any problem for users.
Modifications made to system files:
A registry entry is added for Dr. Brain, HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\SierraOnLine\DrBrain3.
Drivers/Runtime Libraries/.DLLs utilized:
Win32s is used for the game. Dr. Brain does not install Win32s when installing on a Windows 95 system.
Hardware Requirements:

12 MB RAM 10 MB System, 2 MB Video DRAM
Mwave\Sound card w/ DAC
SVGA 256 colors (does not run in 65k or 16m colors)
4X CD-ROM
32MB free hard drive space.
2 MB for Dr. Brain files
30MB for swap file, temp files, etc...
Issues and Tips:
1. There is no readme file included with Dr. Brain but troubleshooting help is provided in the Dr. Brain Online Help.
2. There are some locations from within the game which may prevent standby from occurring.
3. The Dr. Brain icons added to the Sierra Program Folder may revert to Windows 95 default icons. This usually happens when exiting to and from DOS mode when the Dr. Brain CD is not in the CD-ROM drive. The Dr. Brain icons are not copied to the hard drive they are referenced from the CD.
4. Returning from a Suspend/Resume that was invoked while playing Dr. Brain will result in part of the game screen being cut off by the Windows 95 Taskbar.
