Thanks for this, finally got it working, however and I think this is 
what I did, was load it up on my Iyonix using !CDROMFS which kept the 
file names intact correctly then dragged it across to the hard-disc 
and it worked fine from there, no editing of the !Run file.

My only problem is that I can only get it running in letterbox mode, 
this maybe due to the fact I haven't got a proper MDF file for it, I 
use a Samsung 15" LCD screen. Or maybe it can't work full screen on an 
LCD screen?

cheers
Matthew
