After many years I can once again play 'Hyperspeed' (an old DOS game from 1991 that involves resource management, exploration, and combat, set in space) through DosBox, because I found a - rather expensive - complete copy, with manual, for sale on eBay.

Does anyone else remember (or still play) it? One of the best games ever (without the manual it's worthless though, because before each game you are given the first letter of a word and where to find it within the book, and have to look it up - I used to try guessing, but that never worked, and you only get one shot at it). Using the bat file to bypass the security feature doesn't work, because then you can't access navigation, and without that you're stuck.
