I was however disapointed when "the dungeon" came out..the graphics were horible and it seemed impossible to play..also..you couldn't return to the city.. I have a happy drive and when backing up disk 1 side 1..it showed you a bunch of wierd stuff.. tracks with 8 ,16, if think there was a 31 sector track or something. It could only e used on a happy drive since the drive programmed itself to do all the wierd stuff...and it was wierd! have you booted side 2 of disk one? I also tried manipulating my character..but never found the name..so i started trashing sectors ..but i never found it even that way and gave up.
