Yeah, I'm pretty ecstatic about the game, too!  Best $40 I wasted :-).  But
seriously folks, great game, excellently executed, but big-time copy
protection... I NEED to back up my disks!  In the dorms here, we just got
$350 phones that have a 300-19200 baud Hayes compatible modems, and a
separate dataline from the voice line, but... they generate a hell of a lot
of magnetic waves!  I have lost sevaral disks by way of kind souls returning
them, not to my disk holders, but rathers 2 inches from the phone.  Needless
to say, when someone was about about to put my Shadowgate package (they hold
the disks nicely) there, I found myself practically smacking it out of their
hands.  I have realized that I am desperate to back up disk #1.

I have tried everything I know, and if all else fails, I may call up
Mindscape and order a backup...

If anyone has successfully backed up Shadowgate, PLEASE post you replies to
the net!!!
