Update with Guru's notes and add BIOS dump. Update comebaby.c with Guru's notes and add BIOS dump. (nw) Here's hoping the changes I made to the memory region and ROM definitions work, I'm new to this... If it helps, requirements for the actual PC Windows port: - Operating System: Windows 98 / Me / 2000 / XP - CPU: Pentium III 350 or higher required, Pentium / Celeron 500MHz recommended - RAM: 64M - CD-ROM: 24-32x speed - Hard Drive: 400M - Sound Card: Sound Blaster / DirectX compatible sound card - Video Card: DirectX 8.0a compatible graphics card required, Direct3D support card (6M or more texture memory) required which also implies a 3dfx Voodoo 3 or better, matching the previous notes on the HDD contents.

Update with Guru's notes and add BIOS dump.

Update comebaby.c with Guru's notes and add BIOS dump.

(nw) Here's hoping the changes I made to the memory region and ROM definitions work, I'm new to this...

If it helps, requirements for the actual PC Windows port:
- Operating System: Windows 98 / Me / 2000 / XP
- CPU: Pentium III 350 or higher required, Pentium / Celeron 500MHz recommended
- RAM: 64M
- CD-ROM: 24-32x speed
- Hard Drive: 400M
- Sound Card: Sound Blaster / DirectX compatible sound card
- Video Card: DirectX 8.0a compatible graphics card required, Direct3D support card (6M or more texture memory) required
which also implies a 3dfx Voodoo 3 or better, matching the previous notes on the HDD contents.

	131	The donor PC looks like a standard Windows 98 setup.
23	132	The only exceptions we see are that there's a game logo.sys/logo.bmp in the

25	134	the game in the startup programs.
26		Also of interest, Windows98 was installed from a setup folder on the HD.

27	136	To me this hints that there may have been some expectation of the disk
28	137	being plugged into random hardware.

30		The game is pretty much standard PC game running on Windows98 PC.
31		It uses DirectSound and the Microsoft MCI interfaces and Glide for video.

	140	It uses DirectSound and the Microsoft MCI interfaces and 3dfx Glide for video.
32	141	The PC that the game was dumped from has Sound Blaster and Ensoniq drivers,
33	142	but it works fine with some other sound configurations.

40		The game appears to use parallel port (0x378,0x379)for I/O.
41		The direct port access means it won't run on XP
	149	The game appears to use parallel port (0x378,0x379) for I/O.
	150	The direct port access means it won't run on XP.
42	151	For the controls, it writes a device select to 0x378, and reads the device value from 0x379.
43	152	There is some other output, maybe lights?
