The Following message is being posted on behalf of Ossi Weiner:

-----

There is technically *no way* to support the TASC board, unless TASC is
supplying Richard Lang with a 32 Bit DLL. Until now they didn't show much
interest to do so. We want very much to support the TASC board, because many
Genius customers have expressed this request. But at the moment we have no
solution.

All chess friends could help us by approaching TASC BV and asking them to
supply the required 32 Bit DLL.


Best regards
Ossi Weiner
