If you like to play games, go with an Athlon64. To date this is the fastest affordable CPU out there. Unless you want to heat your room with that Intel crap.
-
for c64, my first comp i loved Druid. Played it till break of dawn. Jumpmann Junior is the best jump and run, but unplayable without a decent joystick.
Then i got a Mega Drive. Best game here is Road Rash 2 and Toejam and Earl.
Got an Amiga later. Cant remember actually what i played besides Kick off, but "It came from the desert" and "nuclear war" are some i remember.
On PC one of my fav games is Resident Evil.
I left Monkey Island and the like unnoted.

Im about to infect my neighbour with emulation, i burned him some ADFs and for some reason, Nero renamed the files according to the ISO standard. Dunno wether i slept when burning them, but anyway.
I downloaded TIM from www.tosec.info, but i cant figure out how to have TIM rename the ADFs into some proper format. I did both scan and rebuild, yet TIM doesnt rename the files.
Anyone knows how to do this so we have 1 more citizen into emulation ?

i used DJ 3.5 as far as i can remember. It worked just fine with 90% of the games, and the rest i didnt bother about.
i guess you can find it on that donkey
-
It may be that your CD recorder doesnt support the needed option to burn the disc properly. I found many non working games out there myself, most burned just fine but didnt boot on the DC, wether with or without BootCD. So some may be just buggy or fake.
-
From my experience: Use DiscJuggler. And DOA needs BootCD to start anyway
-
try O&O Defrag. Best defrag ever. You can arrange your files by access, means the prog will arrange your files on the HD, so the files you use most, load the fastest. Tried a bunch of defraggers, but his one is the best.

OK, to cut a long story short:
I want to call someone in Haarlen, Netherlands. Someone i didnt talk to in ages and i know well. I do know the persons real name and know that person is living in Haarlem last time i heard from that person.
I wonder if there is any website to get the phone number of this person in the Netherlands. There is such site in germany, so i think there is such site in the Netherlands as well. telefon book. Something like that.
It would be a great thing if the mods wont close this topic or stuff.
It may be a bit misplaced in this forum ofcourse, but this one is somewhat urgent to me so well, please leave it.

afaik the fastest speed achievable is 11 MBit by wireless lan if your hardware supports the standard.

In the scene, people have different opinions about a desktop firewall. Recently there was a exploit published, to connect to any server without ZoneAlarm ringing.
I cant use ZoneAlarm on my comp as it causes my comp to reset when it is installed. I am using Kerio Personal firewall, which has the advantage of banner blocking and ICS capabilities.
As with any other Desktop Firewall, it may not really secure your system from real hackers, but it gives enough protection from script kiddies and programs calling home

I had it right the other way with Symantec and Nod 32. At my neighbours new laptop with Norton preinstalled and the update contract running out, i deinstalled Norton and installed Nod32.
Nod32 wasnt on the machine for more than 3 mins and found spyware, Norton didnt bother.
But Norton is like AOL, once installed your system is a mess.
So go with nod32, the only scanner gotten the vbulletin 100% award 18 times in a row.
Norton is for Pussies.
-
try system settings -> software and uninstall it.
And you will not find a working version of NOD32 with crack out there. As if i had money to spare
-
I also recommend NOD32. Its simply the best virus protection available there. Norton is no real option, its like AOL, once installed your system is a mess. Besides that I tested almost everything that is out there, Kaspersky, Avast, Panda and the like.
I actually paid for Nod32 two years straight. And when it comes to support these people rule. When i installed the retail version, my ICS didnt work. I suspected NOD32 first ofcourse and made a support call wether the retail version was different from the trialversion. To make a long story short: It wasnt NOD causing the problems. But what i never experienced before was, that the ESET people _called_ me and wanted my Network specs, like which OS on which PC, how many PCs and stuff to build such a network at their lab to figure out whats wrong.
Thats top notch support i never found anywhere else.
And yes, its advanced heuristic catches some viruses and bugs before they are announced. (WMF bug and some worm for example)
So get NOD32 and you are set. Nothing else for me again.

After quite a while of being absent, i have come here for several weeks/months now.
I dont want to biatch or moan, but i think this forum is not for me.
In all these weeks i have come here, after a long period of inactivity in the emuscene, i didnt find anything new.
Well, ofcourse i am the oldschool guy. I like SNES, Genesis and Dreamcast along with PSX the most, but i see there is not much activity in the appropiate forums as long as i visit here. Its all about xbox, dsemu and psp these days, and besides these, this forum is quite boring.
I have been asked a lot about this site by gc, and i wrote a lot, gc reorganized the forums as i proposed and more, but i do see the forums here are suffering from inactivity.
This i find quite sad, but there is not much i can do about it. So, after quite some time i came here, i may dive into inactivity again. I will sure come here and read the latest news, but i dont think i will find a lot of topics to reply in. Time has parted me and the emuscene, and even though i have been always preaching the good old 16Bit times, it looks like the world is not interested in them.
The emuscene somewhat became much like what the warezscene was some years ago.
It looks like time has got me. The scene as it is today is not the scene i am used to be. The scene the way i am used to it has vanished. All the great people and sites are gone. There is almost nothing for me left.
So i bid thee guys farewell. I may post now and then, but it looks like time has got me. May my 2 boys find something in these games i liked so much.

Yes. I am not alone there

Roar!
I like great music, no matter when it was made.
I still like to listen to Snap now and then
Hammer is outstanding, because he is a believer in Christ, which is obvisiously when you hear named "Do not pass me by" or "Pray".
Its a rare combo to have good rap with intelligent lyrics till today, though Hammers pronounciation is uhm... uncommon
By the way, anyone knows that MC SkatKat ? Some CD produced by Paula Abdul way back then, but its awesome too, no christian lyrics tho, so may be of interest to some of you, but its uber-rare

you can remove they keys with a screwdriver, carefully push it under the keys and then lift it up, the keys will pop out and you can remove them all.
Clean the board itself and each key, then assemble them again, simply push them back into place. May come in handy to have a list of which key to put where.
May look like this then: (Not mine i found on google
)
Some loose keys drying:
Usually the space key has some wirelike thingy beneath it, take a good look on how it is fixed so you can re-assemble it the way it was used to be. Same may appear for the Enter key.
If you clean everything well it will be like new.

GameCop, you should feel kicked in the nuts now.
MC Hammer was in no way a one hit Wonder.
MC Hammer sold more than 25 billion records within his 8 years of popularity. In fact i am a great fan of him, and he did far more hits than "Cant touch this" and "2 legit to quit". There was also "Pray", "Here comes the Hammer", "Have you seen her", "Hammertime", "Yo sweetness", "Black is Black", "Help the Children", "Pump it up" and "Adams Groove" just to name a few. There is also a movie about him:
"Too legit - The MC Hammer story" available on emule.
My personal favorite is "Do not pass me by" from the album 2 legit to quit, which contains several other great songs.
Nowadays Hammer is still alive, but not into music any more.

i dont think so.

He got no eyes so he wont see the difference.
He got no nose so he wont smell the difference.
He may not find any more pills tho

i do. USB sticks tend to try to access drive letters that are allready used. In my company we have this problem often, different USB devices try to grab different driveletters, and if they are taken, you cant see your USB device. Here is how you can check wether this happens for you too:
click start->run
enter "diskmgmt.msc" and hit enter
In this utility you can set your USB device to use a special drive-letter if necessary by right clicking it and choosing the appropiate option. Sadly, this is not permanent for some weird reason and you may use this tool to remap your USB device each time you stick it in.
hope that helps.
