[net.games] Zork on cpm?

draw (02/18/83)

I have just received my Zork1 disc and it doesnt run. Both Infocom and
the mail order place do not wish to take it back ( I can see why really,
but I do think it should work. I think the problem is that I am running
cp/m 1.4 but the literature makes no such restriction.

I get a single acces to disc followed by the cpm prompt with nothing
else. The configure programs give no errors.

I  would sure like to hear from someone to confirm or deny my guesses
and to verify whether Infocom is really as stubborn about this
problem as their documentation claims.

If possible mail your reply to whuxg!beal which is reachable by uucp
thru harpo (and others), or
