- Unprotect ThinkTank Version 1.000 (There are TWO versions)
-
- 1. Diskcopy the original disk to another floppy or copy the
- files to a hard disk.
- (If you have version 1.001 go to 1.001 instructions)
-
- 2. Rename TANK.EXE, type RENAME TANK.EXE TANK.XXX
-
- 3. Rename INSTALL.EXE, type RENAME INSTALL.EXE INSTALL.XXX
-
- 4. Type DEBUG TANK.XXX and press ENTER
-
- 5. At the - prompt, type R . Look for the value in the DS register
- (left-hand column of the second line of the R display).
-
- 6. Add 2000 to that DS value. i.e. if the R display showed DS=0D5F
- then you will use 2D5F. I will refer to this value later as xxxx.
-
- 7. Check that your version is the same. Type the following:
-
- U A8E9 and press ENTER
-
- You should see JZ A8EE on the first line of the display. If so, this
- patch should work.
-
- 8. Type E xxxx:59 90 90 Enter
- 9. Type E xxxx:5C B8 00 00 90 Enter
- 10. Type E A8E9 EB 03 Enter
- 11. Type E A902 EB 03 Enter
-
- 12. To save these changes, now type W
-
- 13. Type Q to exit DEBUG.
-
- 14. Rename TANK back to it's original name RENAME TANK.XXX TANK.EXE
-
- 15. At DOS, type DEBUG INSTALL.XXX
-
- 16. Check the version to make sure this will work. Type
-
- U 2D01 and press Enter. You should see JZ 2D06 on the first line.
-
- 17. If ok, then type E 2D01 EB 03 Enter
- 18. Type E 2D1A EB 03 Enter
- 19. Type E 50D9 90 90 Enter
- 20. Type E 50DC B8 00 00 90 Enter
-
- 21. To save the changes, type W
-
- 22. To quit DEBUG, type Q
-
- 23. Rename INSTALL back to original name RENAME INSTALL.XXX INSTALL.EXE
-
- That's it. The original floppy is no longer needed. you may copy the
- TANK files to a hard disk, network or other floppy with normal DOS
- commands.
