SUMMARY
=======

When you attempt to run Setup for any of the programs listed at the top of this
article, you are provided with the opportunity to register your program using
"online" services.

This option uses the Windows 95 Online Registration feature to call (dial) The
Microsoft Network (MSN) and automatically add your product information to the
registration database. When you use Online Registration, you are performing the
same function as when you mail in the paper-based registration form.

Any problems you experience with the Online Registration feature are handled by
your designated Windows 95 support provider.

MORE INFORMATION
================

In lieu of using Online Registration, you have the option of mailing the
Microsoft registration card included with the program package.

The programs offer the choice of using Online Registration the first time you run
Setup. If you rerun Setup, Online Registration will be an option. After
successfully registering, Setup will no longer display this option.

NOTE: Cinemania and Music Central display the option every time the program is
started unless you click the No button. Completing the registration card is
required if you click the No button.

When you use Online Registration, you may receive error messages about your modem
indicating the following problems:

 - No carrier detected

 - Unable to locate the SignUp Wizard message

To resolve these problems, contact your Windows 95 service provider.


For more information about how to use Online Registration in Windows 95, click
the Index tab in Windows 95 Help, type the following text:

Then double-click the selected text to go to the "registration, online" topic.
