This seems like a well thought out way to waste time. Has anyone been successful in putting it on a hard disk or copying it to a RAM: floppy ? The copy protection is a word from the maual and there is no problem running from a backup copy. However, it will not load properly unless its disk is the boot disk. There is nothing weird in the startup- sequence that one might put in a boot ss elsewhere. Email is fine. -- -Frank Cunningham smart: fc@lexicon.com phone: (617) 891-6790 dumb: {husc6,linus,harvard,bbn}!spdcc!lexicon!fc Real Recording Engineers mix direct to stereo.

>Subject: Game: Ports of Call on a hard disk >-Frank Cunningham I have been using Ports of Call on a hard disk...I remember I had some problems with it...anyway don't remember them anymore... :( But... Have you copyed PoC's fonts to your FONTS:-directory? And have you noticed there is files with spaces in their names: There is four (4) files like that with 1, 2, 3 and 4 spaces... Another problem might be a joystick in port 2...my PoC didn't like it... And of cource you have to CD to directory where your PoC-files are. What about Stack in the PoC-icon? Is it bigger than yours? I will check my script which runs the PoC if there is something which I didn't remember now... Hope this helps you. It's a nice game... - Pasi -
