try using an lpt port parolell cable connection.
What I have done on my win95 machine is to put the file interlnk.exe on the
rute directory on the hard drive, then add the device=c:\interlnk.exe line
to the config.sys file. Then I reboot the computer and make sure that it
goes straight in to dos mode.
Interlnk is then loaded.
Now all I have to do next is to start up intersvr on the other computer.
Hope this helps. You can email me privately if you have any further
trouble.
P.s I use a parolell cable, not a serial cable. One end is a male
connection and so is the other.
