How you run it depends on what type of system you are running under.
Because it is a DOS program, in DOS just change to the directory and
type in "TYCOON".  Under Windows 95/98 you can run a dos window and do
the same or just create a shortcut on your desktop and point it to the
program.  Another option would be to go to "start - run - (browse to
program)"

Beware though--- under Win98 I have had crashes with TTDLX.  I finally
created a Dos boot disk with the mouse and soundcard (sb16) drivers.
Worked just fine until I updated my sound card to a SB64 AWE.  Now it
will run fine for about 30 min then I get a system crash and have to
power off and on.  Anyone know of a solution?  Thanks.

Bin the 64 and get an MX300 ;)

Is the screensaver turned off in the dosbox/shortcut properties ?
This will often cause problems for old DOS games under W95/98 (as will a
lot of the powersaving options - a lot of DOS games don't like the hard
disk spinning down).
