Hi ari, I took the PCS DOS games off my web site to make room for my windows games. Less and less people were playing them and it was a pain to get them to work with newer computers and especially windows xp. I still hope I can convert them to windows easier than when I converted my DOS PackMan to pacman talks. smiles, Phil
