There are a couple of unprotects going around for this piece of software.
|
||
This one is rather short but others make you change 51 other bytes that seem
|
||
to be unneeded. You will need DEBUG for you dos diskette and a Copy (doesn't
|
||
matter if it works) of NewsRoom.
|
||
|
||
At Dos: A> Ren nwsrm.exe nwsrm.zap
|

You now have a working copy of newsroom. The only not is that all file
|
||
most reside on drive A:. Assign can be use to allow this program to work
|

on a hard drive.

|
||
You will need: Dos DEBUG
|

A formatted Blank diskette
|
||
A non working copy of the program
|
||
|
||
This tutorial show how defeat prolock on dBASE III but can be used for most
|
||
prolocked disks.
|
||
|
||
A> Debug DBASE.exe
|
||
-R
|
||
|
||
You will now see whats in the registers. Record the values
|
||
-U
|
||
-U
|
||
|
||
Look for a LOOP instruction. The next instruction will be a XCHG.
|
||
Using the Address in the first column [091B:XXXX 92 XCHG DX,AX]
|
||
enter -G XXXX
|
||
-S 100 3000 83 c4 08
|
||
|
||
Some address will be listed. Take the last address 091b:XXXX and
|
||
-A XXXX
|
||
XOR AX,AX
|
||
RET
|
||
Press Return twice until the "-" prompt. enter
|
||
-S 100 3000 C0 45 F8
|
||
This will display a single value [091B:XXXX]. use it and enter
|
||
-E XXXX 0B 46
|
||
-M 0:c f 0:200
|
||
Prolock will test for the original diskette enter

Locksmith is in my oppion the BEST copy program for the IBMpc. Using
|
||
Special Parameters Locksmith can copy almost anything. I hope to explain to
|
||
all you PC Pirates how to use this great program. This is first in a 2 part
|
||
series on the use of locksmith.

Window #1: Current Track Window. This window is used for selecting what
|
||
Tracks are to be used. To get to this window press the [F1] key.
|
||
If a number (Track) has a "." under it then it is to be used.
|
||
The SPACEBAR is used to toggle a single Track. The "+" key is
|
||
used to toggle the whole side of a disk. Left and Right Arrows
|
||
keys are used to move the cursor.
|
||
|
||
Window #2: This is the Sector window. Here you will find the Size (N) and
|
||
the Error in the sector if any and the percent of the track taken up
|
||
by that sector. By examine the sector's number you can find out how
|
||
how the sectors are really numbered because some protection schemes
|
||
use abnormal sector numbering. HOME will take you to the top of the
|
||
screen to the Number of sectors [SECTORS: 00] prompt. This is used
|
||
in creating your own protection schemes which will be explained in
|
||
the next issue of KRACK: [F2] get this window
|
||
|
||
Window #3: The data window can be used to examine, edit and create data to
|
||
be written out to the disk. So protection schemes need certain
|
||
bytes to be changed. [F3] get you here while [F9] toggle Ascii/Hex
|
||
display. If a search string has been entered then [F10] will start
|
||
the search.
|
||
|
||
Copying something with locksmith is pretty easy. If the disk is unprotected
|
||
then use the BACKUP in the SECTOR utilitys. If the disk is protected then
|
||
you must use the BACKUP in the TRACK utilitys. The best way to copy a
|
||
protected diskette is the first to Slow Copy the whole disk [TRACK utilitys]
|
||
then write down any odd tracks (more sectors than the other errors etc.).
|
||
Use Fast copy [SECTOR utilitys] to copy similar track then use Slow copy to
|
||
copy the Fuckup tracks.
