It is a binary decision. Either we try to do something about climate change or we don't. If we try the worst thing that happens is we can't affect it and if we are lucky we can. If we sit back and do nothing we really do not have the option of "Oh well, if we had....." because we only have this one …

I have a can of CO2 here you are free to breathe it in for as long as you are able to... Seriously, why are people even against this? What is the worst thing that can happen ?

Re: MS-DOS DoubleSpace and DriveSpace, anyone use it?
Posted on 2020-06-15, 08:54
I did it once and found it was not worth the hassle of losing the data and I think it made things slower. I did use a program called "FreeSpace" in Windows 95 and I liked it a lot at the time. It basically shrank individual files and hardly added to the load time . It caused problems on Windows 98 …
Re: Which old game would you like to see a remastered version of?
Posted on 2020-05-20, 13:46
More in order to have compatibility with newer machines than visuals but I think an update would be cool for: Mechwarrior 1 & 2 Heavy Gear 1 &2 EarthSeige 1 & 2 StarSiege (the mecha game, NOT Tribes) Interstate '76 (and I guess '82 even though it was an inferior game) I know I know.. a lot of mecha …

coming back to this as I have more time... I had bought a Voodoo1 for my K6-2 system and when I started a new job had little time to play but then as things settled down I decided to upgrade. At this point 3Dfx had started making their own cards. I went to the electronics store mostly planning on …
Re: PowerDVD vs WinDVD for Win9x/ME
Posted on 2020-05-11, 07:33
Back in the day I could only get smooth playback using WinDVD and DVDgenie (what versions I don't recall). There was a setting in DVDgenie to crank the "quality" of playback way down and then everything was smooth. I am not sure of the system I had at the time. Maybe a K6-III+ or even an Athlon with …
Re: Is a small increase in FSB speed worth it?
Posted on 2020-04-20, 08:29
IMHO if it won't shorten the life of the product or do other damage, why not? Don't cost nothin'... Seriously though every little bit can help. Overall performance is a sum of all tweaks.

Gracias. :-) I will ping your e-mail when I get some time (still dealing with shut down in this country) and I will post answers to most of the Q's at the top of the thread in due course as well.. Just to level set: I worked with 3dfx literally months before the bottom fell out so apart so I doubt I …

Re: Old games that had CD Audio tracks?

I know the Activision games Interstate '76 and the Mechwarrior games you could play the music in a CD player. I think StarSiege has this as well.

Re: My CRT monitor died, I think I'm done with them. Recommend a good alternative.
Posted on 2019-04-24, 07:25
Most CRT have a small dial for "gain" that you can adjust to make it brighter. You may have to remove the housing to get to it. I had a first generation Acer Aspire and the only way to adjust the gain was to remove the housing. Do that you have to wait a good 24 hours with the monitor completely …
