UNPROTECT PATCH FOR SIDEKICK VERSION 1.5
|
||
|
||
BY
|
||
STEVE SCHAUER
|
||
|
||
|
||
Use the following steps to unprotect Sidekick Version 1.5. After
|
||
modifying SK.COM the program will no longer look for the key disk
|
||
in Drive A: and you can run the program off your hard disk alone.
|
||
|
||
|
||
You should modify a COPY of SK.COM with DEBUG by entering the
|
||
following commands:
|
||
|
||
you enter: DEBUG SK.COM <CARRIAGE RETURN>
|
||
A 089E <CARRIAGE RETURN>
|
||
|
||
DEBUG responds with: XXXX:089E <XXXX CAN BE ANY NUMBER>
|
||
you enter: NOP <CARRIAGE RETURN>
|
||
|
||
DEBUG responds with: XXXX:089F
|
||
you enter: NOP <CARRIAGE RETURN>
|
||
|
||
DEBUG responds with: XXXX:08A0
|
||
you enter: <CARRIAGE RETURN>
|
||
A 08AD <CARRIAGE RETURN>
|
||
|
||
DEBUG responds with: XXXX:08AD
|
||
you enter: OR <TAB> AL,01 <CARRIAGE RETURN>
|
||
|
||
DEBUG responds with: XXXX:08AF
|
||
you enter: <CARRIAGE RETURN>
|
||
W <CARRIAGE RETURN>
|
||
Q <CARRIAGE RETURN>
|
||
|
||
That's it! The modified version will now run as an unprotected copy
|
||
of Sidekick.
|
||
|
||
|
||
REMINDER: The instructions above enclosed in <BRACKETS> are not to
|
||
be typed in; when it says <CARRIAGE RETURN> or <TAB>,
|
||
you should press that key at that point. <You knew that,
|
||
didn't you?>
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
SECOND REMINDER: Fate being what it is, you did modify a copy of
|
||
Sidekick and not the original, didn't you?
