The demo works quite tantalizingly (?) but the actual game never loads. I've checked my floppy rotation speed, and it's 299: pretty much bang on. I've got an ancient 520 (1 Meg) and a DS drive. Basically what I'm asking is: is there a hope for me, or do I try to return the game? A plague on EA and all their descendants for their nutso copy protection... -- Jonathan Fischer HCR Corp Toronto, Ontario, Canada
