Hi, I would like to set up a multiplayer game of Age of Empires II: The Conquerers using a serial connection between a PC and a laptop with Windows 98. I have the cable (9-pin) hooked and am able to play games of StarCraft using it, but when I click Show Games at the AoE multiplayer set-up screen, a dialog box pops up with options Port, Baud Rate, Stop Bits Parity and Flow. I don't know if these need to be changed for the game to show. So maybe if someone has experience with this area, they might be able to list the steps I need to take to get it to work. Any help would be greatly appreciated. If there's something else about the problem that you need to know, please ask.
