I just purchased a sealed copy of Pinball
Construction set and cannot get it to boot
on my Atari 800xl.  If I boot normally 
(just insert disk and turn computer on) I get:

REMOVE CARTRIDGE

If I hold down the option key while booting I
get the Electronics Arts logo on the screen
then the whole thing goes blank and dies.

Do I have a defective disk or is there something
I am not aware of that I have to do to get this
booted.


Thanks
