If anyone out there can help me, I would
greatly appreciated it.

I am trying to recieve input from the built-in
joystick ports on my TANDY 1000EX i8088.

They work on some games, etc., so I am sure that they
are functioning.

Does anybody know what DOS/BIOS interrupts/function
calls and what registers I should send/recieve to recieve
data from the stick and the buttons?

Any input on this would be of great help to me.

Thanks.
