DGT does have an Driver for the DGT-board for all windows-programs. For each program you have to write special ini-files. For Genius 4,5 and the Chessmaster and for Powerchess the inifiles are released (for the DGT-board). I just ask, if it could be possible to write a similiar driver, where this Donninger-code (winauto232) is build in. I don't know if it possible, but it should be woth thinking about it, don't you think so? I hope this makes the idea more clear. I also hope that some programers do like this idea. Best greetings, Hannu Wegner
