1.  Installing the game using "Autorun"

a) Installing 2002 FIFA World Cup TM	
The easiest method of installing 2002 FIFA World Cup TM is to use the "Autorun" feature.  Upon inserting the 2002 FIFA World Cup TM CD into your CD-ROM drive, and selecting the language in which you wish to install, the game will bring you to the 2002 FIFA World Cup TM "Autorun" Screen. From here, select "Install" to launch the 2002 FIFA World Cup TM InstallShield Wizard.

Note: In territories where language selection is not an option, the first screen will be the "Autorun" screen.  Select "Install" to launch the 2002 FIFA World Cup TM InstallShield Wizard.

b) Minimum Hard drive space required
It is important to note that you must have a minimum of 65 MB hard drive space free to install the game (for "Compact" installation). 

c) If your "Autorun" feature is disabled
If for some reason your "Autorun" feature is disabled, you can install the program by running AUTORUN.EXE directly from the root directory of the CD.

Note: Manually performing a second 2002 FIFA World Cup TM install (by running SETUP.EXE in the "\Setup" directory on the CD) before uninstalling the original game files is not recommended. More specifically, installing into the same location twice can cause the game to malfunction. To avoid problems, the "Autorun" feature should be used for all installs and uninstalls.


2. New options on "Autorun" screen after install

After you've successfully installed the game, you may notice that the "Install" button is no longer visible on the "Autorun" screen. In addition, several new buttons will appear, namely:

"Play" - launches 2002 FIFA World Cup TM.
"Uninstall" - See section 4 for details on uninstalling the game.
"Register" - if you did not register your copy of the game during the install process, you can do so by selecting this button.



3.  DirectX

If you try to run the game without DirectX installed, the program will not function. For 2002 FIFA World Cup TM, the minimum supported version of DirectX is DirectX 7.0a. For your convenience, we have included DirectX 7.0a on the 2002 FIFA World Cup TM CD. 

Note: If you already have DirectX 7.0a (or higher) installed, it is not necessary to reinstall it.

a.) Installing DirectX directly from CD (if you skipped it during game install)
2002 FIFA World Cup TM comes with DirectX 7.0a and will prompt you to install it during the installation process.  If you would like to install it manually, make sure the 2002 FIFA World Cup TM CD is in the CD-ROM drive, and access the following path on your CD-ROM drive: 

"\DirectX\DXSETUP.EXE"

Double-click on DXSETUP.EXE to begin DirectX 7.0a installation.

b.) DirectX 7.0a and Windows 2000
During the installation of 2002 FIFA World Cup TM on a PC with Windows 2000, you will be prompted to install DirectX 7.0a.  Select "No" and proceed with the installation.  DirectX 7.0a will not be installed, however the game will still function correctly.


c.) DirectX and supported hardware
We recommend that 2002 FIFA World Cup TM be run with DirectX compatible sound cards and video cards. While there is a good chance that 2002 FIFA World Cup TM will run with non-DirectX compatible hardware, you may find that:

          	i) 	Sound quality suffers.
           	ii) 	The game runs slightly slower.
		iii) 	The game does not run at all.

If your sound card or video card does not support DirectX, please contact your vendor.

d.) Notes regarding Windows 95B and DirectX
In order for DirectX to be installed on a PC with Windows 95B, you will need to install Dcom95.  Dcom95 can be found on the 2002 FIFA World Cup TM CD.  To install, double-click on the My Computer icon on your Desktop, right-click on the 2002 FIFA World Cup TM icon and select  "Explore."  Open the folder called "dcom95" and double-click on the application called dcom95.



4. Uninstalling 2002 FIFA World Cup TM

The simplest method of uninstalling 2002 FIFA World Cup TM is to use the "Uninstall" button on the 2002 FIFA World Cup TM "Autorun" screen. You may also use the Uninstall shortcut in the Start Menu, which can be found at the same location as the shortcut used to launch the game (usually "Start Menu/Programs/EA Sports/2002 FIFA World Cup TM")

Windows also has an "Add/Remove Programs" Icon in the Control Panel that you can use to uninstall the game.



5. Memory requirements

a.) Memory requirements in Windows 
2002 FIFA World Cup TM requires a minimum of 32 MB of RAM to run on Windows 95B, 98, and ME. If there is more memory available, you will experience better game performance in all areas.

Note: Windows 2000 requires 64MB of RAM to run and Windows XP requires 128MB of RAM to run.

b.) Running the game under stressful Windows conditions
At Electronic Arts we strive to bring you the best in graphics, audio and gameplay.  We are always pushing the envelope of computer performance. While we have made every effort to ensure that 2002 FIFA World Cup TM multi-tasks with all Windows applications, we recommend that you shut down other applications (including virus scanners) and run 2002 FIFA World Cup TM by itself when possible.



6. Improving Game Speed

There are several ways by which you can speed up the overall 2002 FIFA World Cup TM experience: 

a.) Choose a larger install - the more data that is on your hard drive, the less time your PC needs to spend accessing the CD.
b.) Adjust the Detail Level in the Render Options on the Options screen - this allows the user to reduce graphical quality in order to achieve better performance.
c.) Disable the radar option in the Options screen.
d.) Select the "On the Pitch" sound effects mix on the Options screen.
e.) Ensure that Hardware Acceleration is set to the maximum level. This setting is located in the System Control Panel in Windows 95/98/ME, and in the advanced Display Control Panel in Windows 2000/XP.



7. Hot Keys

The following hot keys can be used to access certain functions more quickly:

In the Front End (before you get to the game)
F10 - Chat (Multiplayer only)
F11 - Quit/Disconnect (Multiplayer only)
F12 - Exit to Windows

In the game
ESC - Pause Menu
F1 - Team Management
F2 - Instant Replay
F3 - Match Facts
F4 - Options
F5 - Side Select
F10 - Chat (Multiplayer only)
F11 - Quit/Disconnect (Multiplayer only)
F12 - Exit to Windows
1 - Tele Cam
2 - Tower Cam
3 - End to End Cam
4 - Sideline Cam
5 - Panoramic Cam
6 - Action Cam
7 - Dynamic End Cam
8 - Swing Cam
9 - Radar 



8. Keyboard, joystick and mouse functionality

You must use the mouse to navigate the game interface. Click on buttons and icons to select modes and options. The keyboard is available to enter information or send chat messages when playing other users via internet, modem or network.

The "chat" feature is available in all Multiplayer modes by pressing the F10 key (to open/close the dialogue box) and using the Keyboard to type your message.

Joysticks/gamepads will not operate until you are in a game, except on the side select screen. When you are on this screen, you must move whichever input device you plan to use in the game to the left or the right to select your team. The game will automatically detect the type of device it is and a graphic will display depicting it. 

Please note that you may have to recalibrate your controllers with each new install in order to have the game detect them correctly.

Some buttons may be reversed on a few USB plug and play gamepads. If the gamepad manufacturer has provided software with the device, installing it may correct the problem.  You can also use the Control Options to remap your gamepad.

We highly recommend the use of a 360 analog gamepad such as the Logitech Wingman Rumblepad, Gravis Eliminator Gamepad Pro USB, Gravis Xterminator, Microsoft Sidewinder Gamepad Pro or Interact Axis Pad.

As of the date of the 2002 FIFA World Cup TM release, the force feedback or rumble effects of some game controllers will not function when running under Windows 2000/XP.

Users may experience some issues when playing 2002 FIFA World Cup TM with the Nostromo N 45 gamepad if the Nostromo drivers are installed in the OS.  Using the standard Windows drivers will allow the gamepad function correctly.

To bring up the in-game pause menus, you can press the Start button (if your gamepad has one) or press ESC and then navigate with the mouse again.

ALT-TAB is not supported in 2002 FIFA World Cup TM.

Note - When running Windows XP, hitting the Windows key will minimize the game and send the user to the desktop.  Click on the game in the taskbar to return to your game.

Refer to the "Control Summary" card included in the 2002 FIFA World Cup TM jewel case for more detailed information on the in-game play controls.



9.  Modem 

Call Waiting
We recommend that call waiting be disabled, as we have experienced some problems with it during modem games. Specifically, call waiting can disrupt modem games already in progress.



10. Notes on Internet Matchmaker

You must have Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.0, Netscape 4.78 (128-bit), CompuServe 2000 or AOL 4.0 (or higher) installed for Internet Matchmaker to launch correctly. Netscape 6.0 or higher is not supported at this time.
You can download updated browsers from:
Netscape:  http://www.netscape.com/download/index.html
Internet Explorer: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/default.htm

11. AOL IP Information

On an AOL dial-up connection the IP information provided on the Direct IP screen is the "AOL Dial up Adapter" and may or may not be the correct IP address of your machine.   To get the correct IP address you must return to Windows. From the START menu click RUN. Type in  'winipcfg' and get the IP information for the "AOL Adapter", NOT the "AOL Dial-Up Adapter". Use the "AOL adapter" IP information as your IP address.

Note: To get the correct IP address in Windows 2000, you must return to Windows.  From the START menu click RUN. Type in  'cmd /k ipconfig' and get the IP information for the "AOL Adapter", NOT the "AOL Dial-Up Adapter". Use the "AOL adapter" IP information as your IP address



12. Notes on video card chipsets
