    This is your issue, install Win10 32bit.

    Crap. I'd forgotten the BBS is on Win10 32 bit, and it's going EOL next
    year.

    Might finally be time to move over to Linux - although my only 16 bit dependencies are old nodelist compilers. Archivers and games are all
    32-bit or javascript native.

    Not sure what nodelist compiler you use, but MakeNL has a Linux-native
    version that works well.

    What's that matter? I have this on Win7, Nick Andre has his on WinXP ....

    Come on over to the dark side, Luke! :)

    There's nodelist compilers for Linux, also.

    What, exactly, are you looking for? I'm sure I can point you in the right direction..

    For *C stuff, makenl is the way to go. There's plenty of example configurations included with it, also.

    I'm running Makenl - that's my only DOS dependency at this point.

    Did you not see my post to you from a few days ago? MakeNL runs
    natively on Linux.

    Bah, piece of cake then. You would just change your DOS directories to Linux directories in the config file, download and compile makenl for linux, and you should be all set.
