The Program Appears to be Running Sluggish
If the program appears to be running sluggish, there are a couple things you might try doing.
Change the screen resolution of your computer to the 800 x 600 resolution. The higher resolutions require a lot more computer power. To change the resolution, do the following:
Click on START
Select CONTROL PANEL
Select DISPLAY
Click on the SETTINGS tab
Adjust the screen resolution
Copy the files to the hard drive.
To give traveling evangelist a lot of flexibility, I have designed this
program to have the capacity of running directly off a CD. However, some
older computers (especially computers with very slow CD drives) just can't
keep up. Usually, moving it program to the hard drive eliminates most of
the sluggish problems.
There is no "installation" of this program, per se'. All you need to do
is copy the files to the hard drive. It is important to note that this
program, like all other programs, utilize "hidden" files. Make sure that
you copy all of the files (including the hidden files) to the hard drive.
To make sure do the following:
Open Explorer (or File Manager)
On the menu click on TOOLS
Click on FOLDER OPTIONS
On the top of the window, click on the VIEW tab
About 9 rows down, click on
SHOW HIDDEN FILES AND FOLDERS
You may try to increase the "Refresh Rate" on your computer video driver. To change this, do the following:
Open the CONTROL PANEL
Open DISPLAY
Go to the SETTINGS tab
Click on the ADVANCED button
Click on the MONITOR tab
Under the "Screen Refresh Rate" select a higher number.
Press OK
