   I just saw and bought Battle Isle by UBI Soft (dist. by EA) today.
   I bought the 3.5" disks.  My system is a 386/20MHz with 4MB RAM
   and running DR DOS 6.0.

   The game installed just fine and looks interesting, BUT it won't
   let me select a computer opponent.  Everything else works EXCEPT
   that.  Has anyone else come across this?  Is there a way around
   this?  Please let me know ASAP before I give these guys a call
   and really ream them for releasing a game with such an obvious
   problem.  Yes, the box did say 1-2 players and the docs say you
   can select HUMAN or COMPUTER opponent.  I even tried installing
   the EGA version, but the same thing happened.  
   
   Thanks in advance!
