Yes, you are right, Compile used this to detect MusicModule for their
player...

Yes, you are very right about this... Sony HB-900P has a bit different
diskrom, that in most of other MSXs. Anyway you should be able to make
that game to work, if you replace that line in your AUTOEXEC.BAS with
followwing line :
IF INP(192)<>255 THEN FOR I=0 TO
4:POKE-68+I,PEEK(-54+I):NEXT:POKE-34,188:POKE-53,201:POKE-54,35
This line is only creation of my head, so I'm not sure if it work or not,
anyway you should try it.
