     The cracked version of Alien Mind seems to be kind of famous for not
running on ROM03 machines. One poster mentioned that the original disks worked
okay on his 1.25MB ROM03 (don't recall that anyone said it booted okay on
ROM03's with more memory).  A try would be to pull your Expansion Memory and
see if the copy will work with 1.25MB.
