There's also the occassional bug of notactuallydeleted recycled recycle bin files where you'd have to dosprompt your way to C:\RECYCLED and just delete everything in there.. This occassionally happens in some 0 bytes free jams

Scandisk helps correct the reported amount of free disk space often.

I have DOSBox in the Send to menu instead. Works well enough and I don't need to touch the registry or potentially risk the magical file association for exes/bats/coms As for program shortcuts they usually point to dosbox.exe and then the exe afterward (with an appropiate -conf in certain cases). No …

Most of PS2's AA tends to be of the blend-screen-buffer-a-half-texel-few-times sort which isn't really AA though.

Rich geeks? Vulkan's been available for a few generations of video cards now, and it's almost tradition that Quake gets ported to a fresh 3D API 😀

That's not really a "video card emulator" and more of a caps/id fooling wrapper.

There are no "Feature Level" or "Shader Model" or "caps" for DirectX 7 hardware in DX9, because DX7 cards cannot support any Shader Model. i don't think you know how directx and apis work and why you're redefining them in front of a experienced 3d veteran about them it's always had caps and support …

Well I wouldn't use any modern (post-01) hardware with older (pre-00) CPUs for their fat driver binaries and DX9 dependency. It's unlikely you'll be able to play a GF6-warranting DX9 game on the K6 anyway And no, you can only link two PCI Voodoo2s together. You can INSTALL a secondary Voodoo1/2 with …

The bottleneck of the CPU won't drive the V3 too hot. I'd pick it for its 3dnow-optimized drivers. It's no secondary card however and also it's the lower-end variant so you might not actually get the performance edge with it (as many K6+Voodoo enthusiasts have strived for in 98-00) The 4000XT is a …
