Have you tried auto booting one of these patches from floppy? Create a bootable floppy disk and copy the *.TOS file from the game into the AUTO folder on the floppy (any data files should be kept in their own directory on the floppy root).
For eg. A:/AUTO/GAME.TOS A:/DATA/GAME_DATA_FILES Then turn off any peripherals, cold boot with the floppy in the drive and see if the program/intro still bombs. If it works, then you can identify that it's an AUTO folder program on your HD (or accessory) causing the problem. Or a peripheral (unlikely). A lot of these game adaptations will NOT work if you are running Teradesk, or have any memory resident programs (including any ACCs). The best way to run them is from a cold, clean boot. Using HDDriver you can bypass the AUTO folder on your HD for a minimal boot using the Control key - I don't know if you can do the same in AHDI... |
