Copy disk B to the hard drive also (put /RASTANB/RASTAN files in the same
directory as the /RastanA/Rastan files).

The program will still ask for disk B, and will check it at the start of 
every level, but it reads the program off the HD, for a considerable speed
increase.

There were several patches posted around that eliminated the copy protection
all together, but I don't have one of those to tell you about it...
