I've been using the Prince of Persia gameboot for a long time, and I recently went back to the original gameboot.

For whatever reason, all gameboots I have tried since the Prince of Persia one seem to cut out early (about half way through), and just turn white. I guess some update I got managed to shorten the maximum time or frame count of the gameboots. Or maybe I don't know what I'm talking about.

Anyway, do any of you guys know how to fix this?

"Size limit is the same as any gameboot, 2.5 megabytes, and the time limit is 2.469 seconds or 74 frames."

I have read this many times,
but don't have have it in me to find all the references for this.
Google it.

I have downloaded many gameboots that violate this time/frame parameter.
They either don't work or only partially work.
I don't know why.
