Hello everybody, I am a beginner and I hope I do not ask obvious. My equipment
is 1541 II drive with parallel addon, XAP 1541 cable and a real C64 where I test
remastered copy. I use latest nibtools on winxp with opencbm drivers.

I started dumping Turrican PAL, then I tested copy in my real C64.
After initial intro screen the copy remastered don't load anything.
Reading the database, I known that the game use the Radwar protection on track 37.
Then I converted dump in G64 format, and using Arjuna with Catweasel controller
I remastered only track 37 of the copy and It works.
I used the same procedure also in side 2 of the disk for loading levels of the game.
Is a issue of 1541 II? But I used a dump of 1541

Retrograde PAL dumped&remastered works OK
Xout PAL dumped&remasterd works OK

After this, I tryed to remaster my original disk of Ghouls'n ghosts PAL damaged
years ago, using a nib file downloaded from Arnold, but when I load it the C64
reset with cyan screen. I tryed to solve this issue using the dump of Xout and
remastering track 32 with nibwrite -S32 -E32. The game load, but is damaged the
initial screenshot. I think that is damaged the nib file. I tried to find other
nib file but they have the same problem because I have to remaster track 32 with
Xout and the resulting copy has garbage in initial screen shot.
Is possible that in track 32 there are data of the screen shot and when I fix the
protection I damage also data of the screen?

Sorry, for my English
