menu (F3 in-game).

chipsets if you wish to play Resident Evil 2 in accelerated mode.

Please check the VIE web site for added 3D support.

If you have less than 24 Megabytes RAM the game may slow down slightly as data is swapped 
between the CDROM, hard drive and the PC’s Memory.

This game can be played without installation but loading between rooms may cause a slight delay. 
Installation is recommended.

Please turn off all power management systems before playing the game as this may cause 
problems.

A few keyboards are unable to register multiple key inputs simultaneously preventing some 
character actions. It is therefore recommended that a joypad is used.
