    Default Help needed, copy protection password for old star wars flop

    Hello, sold this game to someone on ebay, below link
    http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...%3AUK%3A1&rd=1

    now they can't get the game to work because there is a copy protection password in the manual, but the game was missing the manual, it is copy-protected by a password system that needs the manual to get the right code to get past. As such, without the manual, the game is completely unplayable, as you can't get past the very first entry screen.

    I have looked on the internet for a copy of the manual or a patch that will get rid of the need for password entry, but to no avail.

    Can any of you help?
    Or i will just give the buyer a refund.

    I've got an electronic hand drawn from 1994 (!!!) diagram of the copy protection here on my PC, but I can't find the package I used to draw it. Maybe I can find something else.

    Failing that, I have the original X-Wing floppy version in the loft so maybe I'll dig it out and scan the manual if I have time over the weekend.
