I just have find the right chipset driver here http://list.driverguide.com/list/company1112/page12/ but if I try to download them, website usually ask me to login, so I try username:drivers passw:all :) but it doesn't run, this accout is out of order. I don't want to register in the driverguide, last time that I did it, my emailbox was full of spam. Can you suggest me any username/password to download the chipset driver from http://list.driverguide.com/list/company1112/page12/ tnx ;) > Netmodem was > pay software however I heard somewhere that it will be going open source soon > (altho I don't know when or if it already has) so at that point it will be > free, plus -- hopefully a third party will fix some of the bugs. > > You can also use Synchronet as a telnet frontend -- i've seen people do this > for Renegade BBS Software.

It's an useful editor under msdos, it works good on my system (may be it doesn't use IRQ:14?) Thank you for help! -- "I bit portano i caratteri. I caratteri le parole. Le parole, l'anima."
