here we go,
booted up the A1200 while the PC is busy.
scrats through my (many) disks to see what to play.
finds 'The Settlers' ! whoo hoo ! not played this for ages !
slaps it in the drive and discovers that is installable on the hard drive.
installs it.
runs it
met with the 'select the symbol on page xxx' screen.
bumhats!
Rob only knows where the manual is.
its an original, bought, paid for genuine game.
and i cant play it.
if it was a copy i would be playing it now.
anyone got the manual they can scan for me ?
or can you tell me what is on page 177 at the bottom ?

Re: AAAARRRRGGGHHH !!! Stupid Copy Protection !!!
tried them both ...
unless i am looking in the wrong place, the Lemon one is a text file (no images) and the old games one is actualy the PC manual in pdf format. (only got 50 odd pages, and all the symbols are at the top of the page ...)
thank you for the effort though !
i have given up and bought the game again (complete with manual) off ebay for a fiver.
(one thing that wont get around the copy protection on settlers 7 in several years time when they stop supporting it .....)
