According to my notes, to remove the copy protection, just change two bytes
in the FASTBREAK.SYS16 file.  The first change is at byte $3E0 of the file
(absolute block $000A, byte $1E0 on my disk); change the $22 to an $AF.
The second change is at byte $3E7 (7 bytes later); change the $F0 to $80.
I just recopied my copy into a folder on my harddrive, and it seems to
work fine, even under System 6.0.

Let me know if you have any problems.

Mike
