B) The code can now be decrypted by typing G 0C5F. Again, the
         screen will turn black. After a few seconds, reset the
         computer and reactivate the monitor with SYS 49152. Using the
         MEMORY command (M 0A97), change the code at $0A97 from 8D B5
         0A to EA EA EA. Change the code at $0AB5 from AC to 00.

         C) Now that our changes are in memory, we may re-encrypt the
         file (and our byte changes) by again typing G 0C5F. Again
         reset out and SYS the monitor back in with SYS 49152 and hit
         RETURN. Examine memory at $0A97 and find the encrypted byte
         changes. They should be 7E D1 08. The byte at $0AB5 has
         changed to 26. Now we know the changes, and the location so
         we may now do the actual changes to the backup.

         D) Reset the computer and load the sector editor from the
         utility disk <> LOAD"DISK DR",8,1 <>. When the cursor
         appears, type RUN and hit RETURN. Remove the utility disk and
         place your backup in the drive. Hit RETURN. You will be shown
         track 18, sector 1. By placing the cursor at position 35, you
         will be on the file pointers of the 1985 file. Press the J
         key to jump to the beginning of the 1985 file. When the
         sector comes on the screen, examine the first four bytes. The
         first two are links to the next sector of the file. The next
         two are the address bytes in reverse order ($0A00). We know
         our changes are in memory block $0A00 so we are in the proper
         block to make our changes. This block turned out to be track
         17, sector 4 on our version. Yours could be in a different
         location on the disk, but the idea will be the same.

         E) Using the cursor key to move through the code, we find the
         original three bytes 19 8E E8 at location 155. The change to
         7E D1 08 can be accomplished with the @ key. The changes must
         be the decimal equivalent. These are 126 209 08. Change each
         byte by placing the cursor over the byte to be changed, and
         type @ and the decimal number change. Hit RETURN when the
         change is made to lock it in. When all three bytes are
         changed, continue searching with the cursor for the 8A byte.
         This can be found at position 185. Using the same change
         procedure, change it to a decimal 38 ($26). When all changes
         have been made and locked in, press C to copy the sector back
         to the disk.

         You now have a copy that can be fast copied. The placement of
         data on the disk in methods other than directory files will not
         allow you to file copy. One other point of interest is the fast
         loader installed in many pieces of this publisher's software. 
         This fast loader is NOT compatible with the 1571 disk drive. In
         many (but not all) of the programs, you may disable the fast loader
         and allow the program to load on the 1571 by changing the jump to
         the main program in the autoboot. Fireworks Kit will work by doing
