Ed,
Is this a possibility? This is from your Rebel board:

posted by a Dan Andersson:

"It should be possible to port Century by converting it from MASM/TASM to NASM.
Or to run it from a boot disk, even though that would be a bother. But better
rewrite it in C99 or some other higher level language."
