SYMPTOMS
========

The D-Day Encyclopedia Setup program will not work correctly if the Windows
folder is not named "Windows." If the folder is named something else, you
receive the following error message:

  Cannot find CTL3D.DLL.
  Windows needs this file to run C:\DDAY\MVIEWER2.EXE.

CAUSE
=====

The D-Day Encyclopedia Setup program is designed to install the Ctl3d.dll file
in the Windows folder.

RESOLUTION
==========

Create a folder called "Windows" before you run the Setup program. After Setup
finishes, copy the Ctl3d.dll file to your actual Windows folder.
