To unprotect "The Dambusters" from Accolade use the following debug proceedure. 1) Copy DAMB.EXE to a formated blank diskette. 2) REN DAMB.EXE DAMB.BIN 3) DEBUG DAMB.BIN 4) Now search for the use of INT 13 -s 0000 FFFF CD 13 I found this call at 13BC:0116 You may find it at a different location, but as long as the number ends in 16 you have the correct location. If it doesn't end with a 16 then you may have a different version and this unprotect may not work. 5) Next look at the code after this call -u XXXX:XX16 You should see the following: XXXX:XX16 CD13 INT 13 XXXX:XX18 7306 JNB 0120 If this is different, you may have a different version. Stop now. 6) Now change the jump to an unconditional jump -e XXXX:XX18 EB 06 7) Now write the changes back to disk and end the debug session -w -q 8) REN DAMB.BIN DAMB.EXE 9) Now place your original diskette in a safe place.
