If you, like myself paid out your hard earned cash for
diagram master only to find out it's install to hard disk
will not work on any drive but C: (contrary to what their
support staff says), Follow the following procedure and
remove the silly copy protect altogether:
Make a copy of DM.EXE
rename it to DM.XXX
use debug
DEBUG DM.XXX
-d cs:3fc7
you should see the following:
75 68 ... if not then you've got a different version than 5.0
and this won't work.
If you see 75 68, then
-e cs:3fc7 eb 68
-w
-q
RENAME DM.XXX DM.EXE
You now have a copy of Diagram Master without the copy protect.
After arguing with the Stupid freaks about the fact that some
people have a hard disk with other than a C: designation,
I finally gave up and spent about 3 hours tracing the code and
fixed the problem myself.
Happy Diagramming,
