Do you have the DirectX9 dll in the game folder? Sometimes a game needs the specific DLL to even work, or in this case to properly interface with the graphics hardware.

I'm not talking about craziest plays, or best "noscope" on CS 1.6 I mean like Aunt Helga's wig caught fire and you had to break your killstreak to go and smother her before the fire spread taking out the entire downstairs. Or your sister's ferret bit one of your friends so then you had to take him …

It happens. It has always happened on my Windows 98 builds. Just click on them and they go away. Just don't leave too many of the "ghost" programs open or Explorer.exe will crash due to sucking up too much memory. There was an unofficial patch for Windows 98, but I found it to cause way too many …

OEM stuff is cheap because everyone had them, and now no one wants them. If you were to do a poll with your friends, family, neighbors, about their modern systems, how many do you think would report that they custom build their computer? Or that they had something custom built? Probably very few. …

Here's how I see it. People will try to approach this the way they approach consoles. Buy a system, then a bunch of games, and if they're lucky some, or if they are super lucky, all of their games will work. But there will be a few that will grab something, have it not work, or not run a specific …

I will. I just need to dig out my system and hope it doesn't brick it. Then test to see if it fixes the error.

It could be that also people have stars in their eyes. They think what they have is priceless because there's been a bigger resurgence in popularity. With GOG and steam adding older games, they think that people would want to buy a "classic" system.

My joke about coming back every two years must have been not so much of a joke. Though, I am writing this to update you on what I have been doing. I finished High School about five years ago. I went onto doing some general community classes at a local college, then I transferred to a local …

Oh wow! I had recollections of finding a note about that memory issue. I am still looking for the bios update. Maybe it will be found one day. Thank you for your reply. I will look through the post you linked to. Thank you so much.

I only play using keyboard. Doesn't feel right to use the mouse. It's best if you play using a 90s style 102key PS/2 keyboard.
