If you want I can take a look at my driver board and see what kind of transisters they're using

: Well, I started it, anyway. I blew the power mosfet though during a test (almost melted the sucker) so I'll have to get a higher rated one along with some resistors and a heat sink and watch those power spikes!

: : I found some info on programming the parallel port so I'll probably do that eventually. By my count T2 has 8 outputs: 2 leds, 1 sol, and 1 explosion light per player. So the parallel port would cover that easily.

: Oh, man, if you could do that, all us T2 nuts would be forever in your debt--we are not worthy... NT
