Re: Pandora Directive

No "stuck-mouse syndrome", eh? That's an odd one. I can't seem to find a pattern other than it seems to happen mostly to GeForce owners (but has never happened to me). I don´t know, maybe it´s not graphic card related but it depends on type of OS. I have WinXP and I´ve read some complaints from …

Re: Mouse in top half of screen only in game

Well, that was longer than expected and less successful than hoped!! It will not even run up on my G400 equipped system - complains about no VESA mode! Maybe you could try Mon-ARC. "Mon-ARC PLUS is a TSR (Terminate and Stay Resident) program that co-exists with the existing VGA BIOS, enabling the …

Re: Pandora Directive

Did you try the official (and now, free) 6.53/6.7 versions? Yes and without success - in DOS (and 6.7 also in XP) they report no supported chip detected, 6.53 in WinXP NTVDM detects WinBond W9970CF with 1MB but it didn´t help with anything. As far as the GF2 is concerned, it seems that it and the …

Re: Pandora Directive

*jinx* You know that now, according to Murphy's Law, you're going to come across a title that will only run properly within a Win9x environment. *heh* Feeble Files and Amber are such titles, but it is possible to get them running in Connectix Virtual PC (but Feeble is very slow on my computer, …

Re: Pandora Directive

I recently found Win98 will bomb out on any Intel processor running faster than 2.1GHz (98SE can handle it), so it's days are numbered. No tears as far as I´m concerned. Since most of my Windows games work under XP (except of Amber and Feeble Files), I prefer dual boot with DOS only. I´ve recently …

Re: Pandora Directive

I haven´t played Pandora in XP for long so I also haven´t switched CD much, but I don´t recall a crash during CD switching. But sudden crashes occurred quite often (and yes, I´ve used hacked executable), although I don´t remember exactly where. I think that when I restarted game, I was usually able …

Re: Pandora Directive

Actually there's been one notable glitch throughout all the posted configs in this thread. They all point to using 5 as the IRQ for sound. Strange thing but I hear no difference - with IRQ 5 or 7 in Pandora Digi Config while IRQ is 7 in VDMSound it gives me the same result - rather good (although …

Re: Pandora Directive

*heh* In all honesty, if your eyes are starting to hurt, you probably need to take a break from playing games. Yes, and not only from playing games but generally from using computer (Oh no, I really need it, it´s more important to me than blanket to Linus :) ). But seriously - I would say that even …

Re: Pandora Directive

I think that this really is a serious problem, because it is about health of the eyes. I agree with you that Unirefresh and VBEHz are only POSSIBLE solutions with no promises and I´ve always emphasized that it works on MY computer. But I have an experience with some friends who thought that it …

Re: the new adventures of the time machine

in Windows
Thanks, Jiri, I'll give it a try. This is definitly an interesting site, I must look into it! Yes, that site is really good (except of colours, but Inferno probably must be black and red :) ). Trying to figure out this stuff is more exciting,(and entertaining), than any adventure game I have played …

Re: the new adventures of the time machine

in Windows
I don´t have The New Adventures of the Time Machine so I can´t try it, but on this XP compatibility list is mentioned that this game can work in XP - there is also set-up for the game but no info about "ISDX_ERR_BADWINDOWSVERSION" so maybe it won´t help.

Re: Pandora Directive

Bzzz...next problem. VBEHz doesn't completely work. It sets the refresh-rate as I wish and in the first seconds after I start the the game all seems to work fine. But then: The screen gets more more and more bright that I suppose my monitor to explode. Can't regulate it anymore and the screen is …

Re: Pandora Directive

Is unirfrsh limited in time concerning how long I can use it? Author writes: UniRefresh is shareware. You may use this fully working version for an evaluation period of up to 21 days. If you decide to use this software after this period you have to register it for $15 (USD). So I would recommend …

Re: Pandora Directive

Thanks a lot Jiri! Now I got it finally running 'eye-caring' on my PC with Geforce 2 MX. You are welcome. :) And it works not only with shareware Unirefresh but also with freeware VBEHz, I´ve just tested it. On the machine with Geforce 4 it still doesn't work. But that's normal I think, because in …

Re: Pandora Directive

Finally registered :-) I´ve installed Pandora and with Unirefresh it is now running at 100 Hz. After fidling with the config files I have also a good sound. Tex 4 is changed (thanks Nicht) and VDMSound applied on Pandora.bat. I have now: Sound Blaster Pro - 16 Bit Stereo MPU 401 General Midi On …
