Some of us at PCommuniques really enjoy cave games and
other underground adventures. We were delighted when *Zork I*
and II became available for the PC, but a reader notified us of a
bug in *Zork I* and the simple fix for that problem. It seems that
when *Zork* is run with a color/graphics card and a green
phosphor or black and white monitor, it displays text that is
virtually unreadable in the 80-column mode and barely
readable in the 40-column mode. Infocom, the distributor
of *Zork*, supplied this solution for the problem; the fix will also
solve any similar problem with *Zork II* or the mystery game
*Deadline*.

When you boot the game, listen for the system's beep. As
soon as you hear it, type the digit 8. The booting will stop and the
letter "U" will appear in the upper left corner of the screen.
When you see the "U," type in 70 with no spaces and no
carriage return. After typing 70 (the digits will appear on the
screen next to the "U"). you will see the letter "N" on the lower
left of the screen. Immediately type 07. Now you can play cave
games, our anonymous reader says, "with text that looks like
Sophia Loren."
