Tex Murphy: Overseer Hints
What use is the microscope?
1 of 4: Did you already manage to start the computer?
2 of 4: If not, try hooking up the passcard reader first and scan the passcard, then enter the password. Where do I find the passcard reader, the passcard and the password?
3 of 4: Did you notice the chess move on the passcard? Your mysterious friend was referring to it.
4 of 4: You can now use the microscope to examine all other passcards you have and even the ones you will collect later on.
