If upgrading from U2 Upgrade v1.1:

    *) Do NOT use 'u2reset', 'rengal', 'cgapatch' or 'dngpatch' from v1.1.
       These tools are now obsolete and incompatible with the Upgrade patch.
    *) DPMI is no longer needed to run the Upgrade tools.
    *) The install may fail from v1.1 if not all patches (cgapatch, dngpatch)
       were applied. If so you will need to apply them or reinstall the game.

If upgrading from floppy releases:

    *) Please copy only the Program Master to the hard drive. The Upgrade will
       add any/all needed data files from the Player and Galactic disks.
    *) The Ultima Trilogy I-II-III (1989) is currently the only supported floppy
       release.
