HELP!!!!

A friend and I have been trying to wire our own 9-25 pin
null modem to xfer stuff and play games.  What is NEEDED by
each and where do they go??  I know some of the stuff is extra...
It's weird...BattleChess works fine, but Populous and F29 hang!!

Also, a complete pinoput list for each (25, 9) would be great too.

Basically, what else is needed besides connecting Transfer, Receive and ground(?)??

Thanks alot!!  Please hurry and EMAIL all replies...bye bye.
