Your replies were not to C projects but I'll let that slide as I like TP;) heh

Your absolutely right. Although the published specs, they were I believe the intended specs for the final game rather than this version. I noticed this later (after my post) but included the specs from the documentation "as was".

I downloaded Sarah's game ages ago and was reminded of it by this discussion, but did test the links when I posted (honest!) certainly they were working ok then!!! I would suggest trying again tomorrow probably down for maintenance.

Interesting will check out your links. Annoying due to a temporary network blip my original longer reply with some links that I thought would have been of interest got lost in transit. Too tired now, so will just say nice to see someone else with an interest in preserving/collecting old systems. Note: I am interested in DOS for preservation reasons and also keeping it "current".
