Claw Demo FAQ

Q: Claw is simply the BEST game I've ever played! Tell me how to get more!!
A: Go to our web site at store.lith.com and read all about ordering Claw, or just call 1-800-381-3581 to get Claw NOW!

Q: Are the levels in the full version all new?
A: Yes! The demo levels are very small in comparison to the 14 NEW levels in the full version. The full version also comes with a variety of custom levels that you can play!

Q: I've finished the two demo levels in the Claw Demo! What do I do now?
A: Order the full version, of course! While you're waiting for Claw to arrive, try to get every treasure item on both levels--it's fairly easy on level 1, but much harder on level 2!

Q: When I run the Claw Demo installer, it says it needs more disk space even though I have plenty free?
A: This message usually indicates that your Windows\Temp directory is really full and needs to be cleaned out before installing Claw. You can do this by clicking on START/ PROGRAMS/ WINDOWS EXPLORER. Now, open your Windows directory and then open the Temp directory. Finally, delete everything in the Temp directory and try to install Claw again. Make sure to delete everything in your Recycle Bin as well!

Q: The Claw Demo crashes on my system, what can I do?
A: First, try downloading DirectX 5 from: http://www.microsoft.com/directx/Resources/downloads/dx5eng.exe Next, try getting the latest video and/or sound drivers from your card maker's web sites. Finally, run ClawAdv.EXE from your c:\games\clawdemo directory and select, "Disable Direct Video Access" or "Disable All Audio" as necessary.

Q: My joystick doesn't work with the Claw Demo, what can I do?
A: First, make sure your joystick is calibrated for use with Windows by running the Windows calibration test found in My Computer/Control Panel. If you have a Microsoft Sidewinder Gamepad, download the latest version 1.5 drivers at: http://www.microsoft.com/kb/softlib/mslfiles/swndr15.exe
