I don't think so.  But the game is easy enough that my 16 year
old always makes it to the last screen anyway.

Yes, it loads faster, but after seeing the game a few times I
don't think I'm going to leave it on the Harddrive.  This does
solve your #1 problem above though.  Just reboot it.

I converted the Icon to a Project with Icontype and use an IconX
script to do the necessary ASSIGN to the Harddrive directory, then
run the program.
