Notes for operation on Laptop/Notebook computers


We did not test Championship Manager Season 2001-2002 with laptop/notebook systems and therefore we do not guarantee compatibility. Due to the variety of hardware configurations that ship with today's laptop systems, it would be impossible to configure a game that would work with all of them. Many laptop/notebook computers are limited in their ability to be used as a gaming machine. This is because of memory configurations, their micro-channel architecture, port configurations and sound systems that are primarily designed to be used with productivity software.


The other common problem is that laptop systems will attempt to compress the traditional version of the standard 101-function keyboard (found on almost all desktop systems) into a much smaller keyboard configuration. This is usually done by relying on multifunction keys that allow the user to assign different functions to the same key. Unfortunately, this has been known to cause problems with our games.


Note for operation using Windows NT/XP and emulators.


Championship Manager 2001-2002 is not supported using Windows XP, Windows NT or Windows emulators. Although the game may run, its performance and stability will be questionable.
