- HOW TO UNPROTECT "KINDERCOMP" AND "KIDS ON KEYS"
- GAMES FROM SPINNAKER SOFTWARE
- (by Herb Sorock, 07/01/85)
-
- These "unprotects" will permit the backing-up of the "Kindercomp"
- and "Kids on Keys" games as well as permitting hard disk owners to run
- the games without the original disks in drive A. Some familiarity with
- the DEBUG program on the PC-DOS disk is assumed.
-
- KINDERCOMP
- ----------
- Note: The procedures below apply to version 1.0 of this game.
-
- 1. Take out the KINDERCOMP disk and make a copy of it on another disk
- using "COPY A:*.* B:" . Do not make the copy using DISKCOPY since the
- disk is protected. Put the original away in your "archives".
-
- 2. Put your DOS diskette in drive A and the KINDERCOMP copy in drive B.
-
- 3. Follow the "script" below. Lowercase is your input, uppercase is
- DEBUG's response. XXXX means the numbers in these spaces will vary
- depending on your machine's configuration. Note: if DEBUG shows
- something other than what is indicated below, you have a different
- version and this unprotect will not work.
