Hello, netters!
Just bought Test Drive II from Accolade and really like it except for the
obnoxious on-disk copy protection.  I mean, if I want to play it off a
floppy I have to use my original disk.  Now as a registered user I should
be able to make any backup I want, and I don't particularly feel like
paying Accolade $10 for the honor.  Does anyone know of a software patch
that will allow me to make backups of my master disk, or some way I could
go in with an editor and neutralize the copy protection?  I don't mind
taking a little quiz every time I play a game, but I absolutely detest
this on-disk protection.  Death to Copy Protection! --Jose Hulse
