Unprotect for Accolade's Rack'Em   by Independent (IND)

Unprotect for Accolades "RACK'EM First off. I received the <CRACKED> version of Rack'em from a friend of mine. So I wondered how they did it. I dug out the PcTools and did a file compare. After I found what they changed I compared the location in Norton Utilities which most people are more versed in using. Rack'em from the factory will look in the A: drive for the key disk. Well, that just won't do at all. So let's get to it. First, bring up NU (Norton Utilities) from the directory that Pool.exe is in. Choose that file for a search. When asked for the "Text to search for" hit the <TAB> key to toggle to the HEX SEARCH mode. Then type in " 57 9A 1B " without the quotes of course. Hit enter. When it finds it, edit the sector by changing those characters from "57 9A 1B" to "57 EB 0C" without the quotes. Then hit enter twice and ESC out of Norton's. Now your all set to play Pool without the Key disk. Please, if your not acquainted with Norton's this way, have someone that can do it confidently. I give FULL Credit to the PTL CLUB for Cracking this game. I wanted to have a text file to show how to do it. It's easier than transferring the game all over. Have fun. Dr. Debug!
