Anyone running this? I got the latest release from John Dailey
Software, but after installing and resetting it, every time I try to restart it, it responds that it hasn't been reset. Any ideas? It was free, so it's not like I've wasted any money...

I just tried it in Dosbox and it seemed to work. I've been meaning to add this game to my board, so your post was timely.
I think you have to set your computer's date back prior to 2000 (yeah!
Back to the 90s!), then run SRE RESET. This is a Y2K bug. After you reset the game, you can set your date as normal and you should be able to run
the game.
it's sad that pcmike has to put this in his netfoss documentation.
i suggest people running these games make a fresh install and then archive when you want to 'rest', overwrite the old files.
Thanks!
