For mouse issues try the SDL.dll from DOSBox 0.74. I think there was an issue with the latest feature update in Windows 10 that caused issues for SDL. I believe this was fixed in SDL 2.0 but not 1.2. DOSBox uses SDL 1.2.13. I'm assuming Daum uses SDL 1.2.14+ which changed the mouse code in SDL. For …

Subnautica Played for 60hrs on survival Excellent game. I don't play survival games since I need a story but this one had just enough to keep me playing. Survival aspects are annoying but easily remedied. Didn't do much base building since I consider it a waste of time so I usually built what I …

Don't really play time waster games but: Tetris on a gameboy in the 80's. Gorillas.bas and the other basic games and also the MS entertainment pack back in the 90's. Played Angry birds for 5 mins when it came out to see what the big deal was but it looked like a ripoff of gorillas and it was boring. …

All official versions of DOSBox work on Windows 95+. non-official versions do not due to them being compiled with newer versions of Visual Studio that do not support 9x. If you don't want to use DOSBox IPX then you'll need to compile a build of DOSBox with the NE2000 patch. Use my guide if you want …

To be honest I can't really offer a good comparison since the only time I played the XBOX was when I visited my brother and played a bit and this isn't even that XBOX it's my old roomates that he didn't want anymore. I can say that loading a game loads without issues and of course you don't need to …

How is what he did any different then downloading a coppy of the restore disk form dell or hps website and burning it off your self? “Microsoft does not sell restore CDs,” Lundgren said. “Microsoft sells licenses” that enable their software to work, Lundgren said, from $300 for a new operating …

Hard to know what he really thought. If he was really dumb enough to believe that just because you can download the restore disc for free off the Internet and do whatever you want with it then he does deserve to be punished. Prison time though? Nah.
