 I inherited a HYPERION which is basically a classy IBM-compatible portable.
The problem is that it does not seem to be quite 100% IBM compatible - I
have two basic problems:

	1. When I try running any type of game, the keyboard appears to
	   freeze.  Most software seems to work pretty well including
	   WordPerfect.  When a game is loaded, the display works fine (the
	   game is obviously running, but the keyboard won't even respond
	   to CTRL/ATL/DEL.

	2. The serial port seems non-standard - Kermit doesn't recognize it.

Can someone help with either 1) information about this problem, 2) a TSR
(wouldn't that be nice) to correct either of the above problems.

 Thanks in advance,
