MANUAL

I am not able to access the Game Manual, either from the "shortcut screen", or by going into the folder and double clicking the icon for the pdf manual. And before you ask, I do have Adobe Acrobat 8 installed.

I was able to get the manual to run with Adobe 8.0. What OS are you using?

I'm using XP service pack 2 and it won't run, I tried it multiple times both from the start up menu and directly.
What worked for me was to clear Adobe out of memory (it was running 3 times from my attempts to start it) start Adobe 8 and then load the manual file, that worked for me.

Thanks for that clue. I was able to get the MANUAL. However, it was only by going to the folders, the link from the shortcut game screen still doesn't work (for me).

Glad to help, I haven't tried it yet from the shortcut screen - but as long as it works I'm happy about that - I've got a lot I need to be reminded of from the manual!

1. Make sure you run latest Adobe Acrobat Reader. You can get it fro free from adobe.com
2. Make sure that you only have one version of Acrobat Reader installed. And make sure that when you install Acrobat Reader older versions are uninstalled first. There are known issues with Acrobat Reader when you install a newer version over and older version.
3. Make sure you firewall or security software does not block the event that an application "A" (Game Menu) starts another application "B" (Acrobat Reader).
4. Restore file opening preferences. Right click on any PDF you have, check "Open with", select Acrobat Reader and the "allways use this application" box. click "okay".
If all fails you can acess it from the Windows START menu or from within the "Manuals" folder of your CS installation.
