- It does this to me also, but I think it is two things at once... first,
- I *think* that the demo simply pretends to crash. Two things tell me
- this: First, the screen format remains in PAL. Since I've already
- confirmed that they erase all ram upon rebooting, if this had been a
- real crash, BPD would also have been erased. Second... the demo actually
- continues after the "crash." However, it brings up a screen with a large
- graphic-puke square blotch in the center, which I assume was supposed
- to be the "insert disk 2" indicator. That tells me that the demo
- did not unpack correctly... Also, the 2nd song (which plays after
- disk 2 gets inserted), has a very irritating quirk which, by its nature,
- suggests that some of the data for that mod got messed up somehow.

- Actually, IMHO, the first song was really noisy and not very good. I don't
- like that style :). The second one, except for its quirk, was much better.
