Troubleshooting
------------------------------------------------------

Issue #1 - 'Please insert A Bug's Life CD':

This is usually caused by A Bug's Life being mounted to a disk drive to a letter that is higher then your physical disk drive. You will need to change the letter of the Bug's Life disk image to a letter close to 'A'.

If you are unable to see the 'A Bug's Life disk' image make sure that it has been mounted. If it hasn't you might need to manually mount the iso 'A_Bugs_Life.iso' located in the same directory as the game and manually mount the iso using Deamon tools or a similar program.
