I want to install the game "Illusion City (Genei Toshi)" to the hard disk of my PC-98. Only have one floppy disk drive and the game ask me to change the disk continuously while playing.

Is it possible to install to HDD or this game can only run from floppies? Thank you.

Thank you very much al32gabby.
The copy protection of the game prevents from dumping the files included in the floppies to the HDD, but I thought there was a hidden method for installing the game. Well... then I will continue playing with that floppy-change madness.
It's odd to me that the MSX Turbo-R version could be installed while the PC-9801 one not.

What do you think about the other versions? (I mean computer versions, excluding the Mega CD one) Anyone here have tried them on real hardware? Are they any better?
-X68000
-FM-Towns
-PC-8801

I know that the X68000 version has MIDI support too (although I don't know if it's SC-55, MT-32, CM-64, ...).

For computers Pc98, there are two versions of the game ILLUSION CITY.

First on 5.2 Floppy diskettes. Version is compatible with computers Series pc88VA.

Second to 3.5 Floppy diskettes. With the support of PC98UV series of computers and laptops.

Dump second version of the game I did not seen. Perhaps this version of the game can be installed on HDD.
