Two pgms I recently downloaded had some problems I wanted to ask around
about.

The first was something called Primus and consisted of a series of
video card games such as bridge, etc.  When this one started up,
I got a blank screen.  When I clicked on the mouse once or twice
I then got a selection screen.

The other was a recently posted demo called II Megs .  I downloaded
the BINSCII version and then converted in locally.  When I ran
GSHK on it, I was told there was a bad CRC on it.  I told it to go
ahead and had a disk uncompressed - but there appears to only be
an empty directory on the disk.  I though that perhaps it was a self
booting disk, but when I tried to boot it I got a msg about a $DEAD
error occuring...
