Sargon III however might be a different story, it might be willing to >run in a Dos window. I guess no "PC VIC-emulator" could help me to run my Sargon II, because it's on cartridge! (which needs muscles of Samson to be placed to it's hole in VIC's backside. :-) I hope to find somewhere working TV-modulator for my VIC. All the other parts are still working, but it's too much "blindfold", if the screen doesn't show you even the coordinates of computer's moves. :-) If I get a modulator I could challenge the program with my Nero or perhaps with other opponents too by corresponding the moves. Only problem I remember: When I did board setups with Sargon II, it didn't allow double pawn moves like e2-e4... And I'd like to switch VIC off while waiting for opponents moves. In junior high school we played with a friend a game Sargon II v. Sargon II with two VICs (level 6). Black's second move 2...Nc6 took about one hour and later the game slowed down even more... I don't remember if we had enough patience to ever finish the game. :-) Jari
