Okay, well, I went ahead and set the game's CPU affinity to only "CPU 0", and lo-and-behold, no more input bug! Now, instead of having to open up the game, Alt+Tab, Ctrl-Alt-Del, then set the game's CPU affinity every time I want to play the game, I instead looked for a way that would automatically …

Hey guys, thanks for the responses! I actually have a few things to say: XP works perfectly well booting from places other than C drive. The system I'm writing this with has it on the D drive. Been setup like this for at least 4 years and sees daily use. No problems at all, and I have A LOT of …

Updates (6/6/2018): Today is the day where I can say that I have finished making several upgrades to my system. I had recently installed an ATI Radeon 9800 Pro 128MB GPU, as from what I can gather, this series of Radeon cards dominated over Nvidia's FX series of cards (I could easily see the …

Boo! At that point, I think I would rather go out and buy a PS2 than try to fiddle with the mess that can be emulation. 😜 Seriously, though, no thoughts? 🙁

Hello VOGONS members! I am here today to ask for some help regarding Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit 2 . You see, every time I play it on my most powerful XP machine (Intel Core i5-750, EVGA Nvidia GeForce GTX 760), during races, my car likes to suddenly start to slow down and begin braking, even though …

Wow. I'm amazed that DOMs have been around for so long, yet I haven't heard of them. Thanks guys!

I'm curious, Richo: What is a DoM? I have never heard of them before.

😮 This is some trickery right here. Are you practicing witchcraft?!? 😀 Seriously, though, I did not know that. I'm sure that bit of information will come in handy sometime in the future. Thanks!

Hello VOGONS Members! I'd thought I'd share for fun something incredibly stupid I did today with my problematic second retro gaming machine, and encourage other people to share their stupid things as well. Quick system specs: Pentium 4 2.8A Asus P4P800 Motherboard 1 GB RAM (restricted to 0.5GB using …

Hah. 🤣. 😀 I would have never had found that link, agent_x007. Then again, it doesn't hurt to have multiple places to download. Also, I tried downloading the programs from those archived links, and, maybe because I tried to do it from the Wayback Machine, but they did not work. 🙁

Hello VOGONS members. Ever used Futuremark's 3DMark2000 or -2001 benchmarks and then, upon trying to open that ResultBrowser associated with that benchmark, you find out that the 3DMark installation did not come with the freakin' ResultBrowser?!? Does that make you mad beyond your wildest dreams? …

Please forgive my very generalized and more-modern-monitors biased Straw Poll. I'm a youngling, so a lot of the points you brought up never even occured to me, nor did I know such things existed. :) You know, after I let this Straw Poll, maybe I should do a Straw Poll focused specifically on CRTs, …

Hello VOGONS members! I would like to know what this retro gaming community uses for their retro PC activities.
