> Having someone do overwatch is a good practice. I think I pretty much ended the old thread by brining up the potential for seizure induction by hitting the 'wrong' entrainment frequency (drawing an analogy to the hundreds of kids stricken by watching a particular episode of Pokemon in Japan back in 1997).
Yeah, I agree... most certainly isn't an exact science.

I'm assuming you're trying to open SBaGen through Windows -- it needs to run through MS-DOS. Under the Start menu, click Run and type "c:\windows\system32\cmd.exe". That should open your command prompt. Once there, type "cd.." and hit enter -- this brings you up one level (or folder in Windows). Do this once more and all you should see is "C:\>". Type "cd sbagen-win-1.0.14" and hit enter -- you should see "C:\>sbagen-win-1.0.14". Then type "cd sbagen-1.0.14" and you should see "C:\>sbagen-win-1.0.14\sbagen-1.0.14". From here, you can access the program. Type "dir/p" and hit enter to view all files available, page by page. When you find the one you want to use, simply type "sbagen" followed by the full name of that file and hit enter.

No problem, hope you can get the program up and running now!
