Since I am running over 210+ Online Games and over 60 are registered, OS/2 is 
not an option at this time!!!

I did not ask you to modify software that was not yours!!! You seem to have 
forgotten our previous conversation in which you concluded that since my 
Mailer and all other communication software work with the digifossil and 
digiboard, that it is a problem with the Dos version of Maximus!!! I was 
asking you that if I sent you a copy of Digifossil could you patch Maximus to 
work properly like my Mailer and other software does??? Or I gave you another 
possible option and that was since X00 or BNU work with Maximus with normal 
modems and BOTH fossils come with port modification programs could you modify 
the port information to get those fossils working with the Digiboard!!! I 
understand they included those Port Info Modifying Programs with the fossils 
for people that use weird port addresses but I'm not a technical wizard to 
know what info I need to modify something like the IRQ Port Vector etc etc!!!
