Apparently the problem was with the DOOR.SYS dropfile. On my system, the
DOOR.SYS dropfile(s) that are created are only designed to use the first and
second nodes. I used a program (QkDoor) to extrapolate the DOOR.SYS dropfiles
into DORINFO#.DEF dropfiles. And all is well. I only have a few doors left to
figure out. Most notably, "Enigma Of Ashrella" and "Netrunner". The majority
of the door games work fine with this set up.
