I was going to suggest 3D printing, but this seems like a much better idea. Where do you get that stuff? Does it cost very much?

Currently i dont have any CRT's but ill keep my eye open at computer stores, dumpsters or whatever comes into my store that customer don't want. The best CRT is the one you can find. Unless you're seriously considering paying the hundreds of dollars it will probably cost to ship the "best CRT" to …

Aw,shucks. I don't suppose disabling the sound card completely in Device Manager helps? If Regmon and Filemon aren't an option, I'd be curious if debugging along the lines of http://punkrockhacker.blogspot.ca/2014_06_01_archive.html might help.
Re: 3.5mm splitter for speakers/headphones
Posted on 2016-06-26, 04:07
The reason is the headphone jack on my desktop speakers is worn to the point where if I move the headphone wire, it will cause the headphone output to drop from stereo to mono, and it's a pain to get to the back of the computer to switch the desktop speakers to headphones. I assume you've …

Whoops, that wasn't the right link. I meant http://punkrockhacker.blogspot.ca/2014_06_01_archive.html . I know pretty much nothing about using debuggers beyond what is written there.

If you're dead set on getting to the bottom of this, perhaps it's time to break out the debugger? I've not had an opportunity to employ such techniques myself, but http://www.play-old-pc-games.com/2015/02/10/wars-shadows-empire/ is an intriguing example. At least it's easy to reliably reproduce the …

Offhand: wipe the drive, encrypt the drive and hold it for ransom, hijack any personal information or passwords you might have stored somewhere, and install various malware programs. In the latter case, keyloggers are one possibility, or they might just add the machine to some kind of zombie-botnet …

So if I want to share files between Windows 7 and Linux, it should be OK to disable NetBIOS, right? Yes, Samba can be configured not to use NetBIOS. Now, with older versions of Windows, I wonder if this vulnerability could be overcome using some sort of a networking sandbox. There's always …

Can you provide a link to this download, then? It is highly unlikely that some random person here will have heard of this obscure game, and it is difficult to propose any kind of general solution from merely "it just won't work". Perhaps you are getting some kind of error message?

PC version was a little harder to find, it's shareware but regardless if I find it or not, I was never able to get it to launch properly past the loading screen. I tried different compatibility modes to launch it but never got it to work. I was hoping to know if I can get it to work on a modern …

Someone on Reddit suggests that the latest bleeding-edge-not-at-all-official versions of ScummVM are now capable of running Riven. So, there's an option, if you're feeling daring. At the moment GOG.com has the game on sale for a little more than two bucks. I understand it's not the same as the …
