Having one of those cravings to play with some old games that I copied onto my hard drive recently, I sat down to play. I found that << Flight Simulator 2 >> will not work from a HD. I found that << Major Motion >> does not like TOS 1.4 in RAM but doesn't mind the HD. It works fine with the Mega ROMS. What other games that are not copy protected don't like living on a HD or working under new management (TOS 1.4). If someone already has a list I would like it since my local computer store is interested in a copy. - Ant achowe@tiger.waterloo.edu | "Murdered by pirates is good." __ _ | - The Princess Bride (movie) / _ _ _ |/ _ _ | _ _ |/ | \__| `<_\<_ |\|= | ` \_/<_\<_ |\ | disclaimer...

I use Sublogic FS2 version 2 (?), that is, the one that supports mono screens, from my hard disk ALL THE TIME. Perhaps you have the earlier version? If so, Sublogic has some sort of upgrade policy. I don't remember what it is, but I had the earlier version before, and they upgraded me some time ago. Good luck.

It works fine with the Mega ROMS. > Atari stopped shipping TOS 1.4 on disk months ago. The OS has gone several revisions since that time. We now only ship TOS 1.4 on PROMS to developers. If your basing your desisions on an older release of the TOS developer disk I *HIGHLY* suggest that you contact Gail Johnson @ Atari Developer Support for an update. Dan/Atari Corp.
