No need to apologise. My best friend and Godfather to my son tried to commit suicide a couple of months ago, luckily I persuaded him to let me into his house having found out from his brother. First time I had ever put a real person into the recovery position. If only he had spoken to me earlier, it …

Make sure you do this from the Windows DOS prompt as Dosbox does not support the attrib command!

Sounds very suspicious. Even though you've run SpyBot, it may be worth running Ad-Aware? http://www.lavasoft.de

When you're feeling really low you cannot see friends that have always been there. Why do you call yourself a geek? You don't seem to like yourself very much. What you see in the mirror and what other people see are completely different things. I promise you that there are always people that care, …

The old command for setting frame was device=c:\windows\emm386.exe RAM FRAME=E000 You can also add to the end of the command i=b000-b7ff which allocates the mono display mode memory space. I used to have 631K of base memory free using this command in DOS 6.22!

I'm 28, the first PC we had was an Amstrad 1512 and I was hooked on Starglider and Digger! Before that we had a BBC Micro, brilliant machine! Even better when we got the floppy drive and ditched the cassette 🤣 Then there was the Intellivision and Astrosmash 😁

I'd recommend any analogue joystick from Gravis, they're virtually bullet proof,and the trims are spot on. I played Wing Commander 1 and 2 with my trusty Gravis, that was when I had the 286 with 640K of RAM so I couldn't get the fancy explosions! It even survived my brother "borrowing" it to play …
