Just a note to Hard disk owners who move Balance of Power 1.03 to a
hard disk using Hard disk util.  This could save you alot of grief, so
read on!!!!

Hard disk util does a very good job of uncopyprotecting BOP, BUT, since BOP
expects to be on the original copy, when system things aren't found, BOP
does little or NO error checking for noty finding a resource.

The biggest one I noticed was that YOU MUST PUT NEW YORK 36 on the HARD DISK
system file or BOP will not go past the first screen, just sit there making
copies of the watch cursor!!!!!

Have fun!!!!!!
