Here is how to unprotect the new version of ProKey (version 3.0, which is copy-protected): 1. PLACE A WRITE-PROTECT TAB ON THE PROKEY DISTRIBUTION DISK!!! 2. Put the Prokey distribution disk in B: and DOS disk in A: 3. Make b: the default drive 4. Type A:debug pkload.com Follow the DEBUG Script below: -g 3ffc [you type this] AX=0100 BX=3FE1 CX=0000 DX=03F4 SP=FFFE BP=41CA SI=0920 DI=0110 DS=0B4F ES=0B4F SS=0B4F CS=0B4F IP=3FFC NV UP EI PL NZ NA PO NC -r cx [you type this] CX 0000 :40ca [you type this] ****NOW CHANGE DISKS IN DRIVE B:--USE A FORMATTED BLANK DISK.**** -w [you type this] Writing 40CA bytes -q [you type this] ************************************************************** ************************************************************** LAYOUT.COM is protected in the same way as PKLOAD.COM. To "adjust" LAYOUT.COM, use the same procedure as for PKLOAD, EXCEPT: Change A:debug pkload.com to A:debug layout.com Change G 3ffc to G 1f8f Change 40ca (setting CX) to 205d That's it!
