. gee, you just never know how much the lineeater takes off the top..
.
Apparently I have the great honor of being the first one to report
defective Lemmings disks.  After a week of playing, suddenly the game
would not get past the "Expansion Ram.." screen..it just flashes on and
off, accessing the disk every cycle.  I write protected the disks 2 days
after I got it, as someone here suggested.  I have been carefull to cold
start the machine every time I play the game, so I don't think there are
any viruses here.  I called Psygnosis in Massechuesetts(sorry, Dukakis
fans) and they told me I was the first to report anything of the kind.  I
guess that probably means I have done something stupid.  I can't
completely eliminate the possibility that one of my kids did something
like get fingerprints of the disk surface.  Now, it is just a matter of
time before I find how good the Psygnosis disk warranty is.

Most reputable software dealers will replace defective disks within 30 days of
purchase.  At least the good ones around the Chicago suburbs will.
