	It does with mine as well, but I'm forced to bypass the check for
an accelerator and it's present speed. Simply attempt to access the Control 
Panel at just the right time (OA-CTRL-ESC) before the message appears. My
ZipGS is only an 8/16 configuration, perhaps the demo refuses to run unless
your cache size is 32k or greater.

	Others with ROM 01 have successfully run the demo right from beginning
to end, so it looks as though it is indeed a ROM 3 problem (swapping disks).
I suppose we'll have to wait for NinjaForce to patch the demo... :|
