. gee, you just never know how much the lineeater takes off the top..

Apparently I have the great honor of being the first one to report
defective Lemmings disks.  After a week of playing, suddenly the game
would not get past the "Expansion Ram.." screen..it just flashes on and
off, accessing the disk every cycle.  I write protected the disks 2 days
after I got it, as someone here suggested.  I have been carefull to cold
start the machine every time I play the game, so I don't think there are
any viruses here.  I called Psygnosis in Massechuesetts(sorry, Dukakis
fans) and they told me I was the first to report anything of the kind.  I
guess that probably means I have done something stupid.  I can't
completely eliminate the possibility that one of my kids did something
like get fingerprints of the disk surface.  Now, it is just a matter of
time before I find how good the Psygnosis disk warranty is.
