Flying Perfect is a screen saver where various objects
fly over the screen in different styles.  It allows users
to import their own BMP files as flying objects. It also allows your visitor to
leave you messages(Text, Voice, Picture, or even Movie) and
launch tasks(EXE files) for you at the time you specify. Enjoy it!




IMPORTANT:
**********  

This is a shareware.  That means: TRY before BUY.  You should 
REALLY make sure that

    -- It works in your machine;
    -- You REALLY like to keep it;

before you register it.  It is provided AS IS.  There is not 
warranty.  Once you register it, it(its Registration Code)
can not be returned, exchanged, or refunded.




A COOL shareware, Savervisor is included. Savervisor is a Screen
Saver and Wall Paper Manager. It provides a lot of VERY COOL 
functions:

  - It appears as an icon that allows you launch a screen saver
    instantly by a single click of RIGHT mouse button.

 - It can be run in a INVISIBLE mode. With this great feature,
    you can just put it into Windows Startup group in Program 
    Manager and forget it: It will take care all the management 
    tasks while you never realize it is working for you!

  - It allows you specify the sensitive areas where you can click
    the RIGHT mouse button to launch a saver instantly.

  - It provide saver (and wallpaper) scheduling capability.  That is, 
    it allows you specify what saver(wallpaper) to be activate at a 
    specified hour through a week.  It also allows you switch savers 
    (wallpaper)through all the savers(BMP files) in your Windows 
    directory and specify switchng period.
 
  - more...


NOTE: Savervisor is an independent shareware which requires a
different registration.  That is, registering the saver does
NOT let to Savervisor to be registered. And registering 
Savervisor does not let to the saver to be registered either.

C). How to install?

 "Step By Step" instructions for installation:

    1). Download the latest version of in_mt.zip and
      VBRUN300.DLL(if you don't have one in your system);
      
      You can download VBRUN300.dll from following place:

        In compuserve, GO WINAV and search its library for
        file named vbrun3.zip

        In WWW, http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/mark_qian
 
        In Internet, ftp://ftp.coast.net/SimTel/win3/dll

        In America Online, Go to software library and search for
        file named vbrun300.exe.

        After downloading and unziping it, you need to move it
        into Windows system directry, c:\windows\system.

  2). Copy fp.zip into a temporary directory, say c:\tmp;
  3). Unzip fp within c:\tmp using pkunzip.exe;
  4). Run c:\tmp\setup.exe from File Manager(double click at the
icon of
      c:\tmp\setup.exe);
  5). If this package includes a utility, Savervisor, you will be
asked to
      key in the directory where Savervisor will be installed.
You need to
      either key in you own directory or use the default one. If
the 
      package does not include Savervisor, you will not see the
dialog.
  6). The setup program will then ask you choose from one of
following
         a). Run the saver now;
         b). Setup the saver now;
         c). Exit to Windows now;
       You need to choose one of them.
    Note: if you choose (click at) the first choice, "Run the
saver now",
          please don't move or click your mouse after click at
the choice.
          Otherwise, you will disable the saver right after you
enable it.

  If you like setup or test the saver that you have installed,
please open
  the Desktop of Windows Control Panel, select the saver from
Screen Saver
  section, and test or setup the saver.

D). TroubleShooting:
    -  Q: I have a multimedia system, with .WAV capability, and
          in fact, 
          I hear .WAV files with most every application.  
          Why can I NOT hear sounds with your screen saver?  
          (The Sounds option is grayed out, and I cannot check
           it.)
       A: The Saver disables Sound option if it does not detect a
          sound device that it knows. You can enforce it accepts
          you sound system by following steps:
              1). disable (turn off) the saver;
              2). open (double click at icon of) file            

                  c:\windows\fp.ini
                  (assuming c:\windows is your Windows directory)
                   in your windows File Manager;
              3). change 
                      EnforceSoundOn= 0
                  into
                      EnforceSoundOn= 1
              4). save and close the file;       
              5.) bring up the setup screen of the saver;
              6). check (enable) field "Sound On";
              7). click at OK to exit the setup screen of the
                  saver;
      
    Q:  I have downloaded your screen saver recently 
        and I was having a problem with getting it to work
properly.  
        After initializing I get a message "... caused a general 
        protection fault in module VGA.DRV at 0001:0ca2". 
  
    A:  Changed your screen driver in winsetup to SVGA.
