- I just wanted to mention again that Fire and Ice works when you
- change the video to 50 hz (and the program to do that is included
- in that same issue of ST Format.)
-
- Also, I went back to the April? issue of ST Format to try
- to extract the Penguins game, and experienced the same problem on my
- STe (would not extract - it claimed the diskette was write protected);
- however, it DID work on my STfm (tos 1.0), and the game extracted
- successfully on the first try on the older machine. Its an STe or tos
- problem.
-
- I am actually quite pleased with ST Format, but I am a general user,
- not a power user.
