Probably not, for no other good reason than the other squillion games waiting on the to-do pile. π
Yeah, seems that way looking at this post at GOG, but things have changed somewhat since then. Reading from the general consensus from this thread at Reddit, if you were to acquire the game now, get the EE. In purchasing the game around 2007, the…[Read more] -

Thanks. It happened at least once going back some time ago now. Not easy to pin down, so a different browser is a good idea. π

Another odd related issue, an incredible disappearing tab.
A notable side-effect is the exception is not posted to any subcategory of Windows Events Logs, and the tab URL will not not show up in browser History. Used ChromeCacheView to search for any unposted text in the forum page, nothing. -

Had a beautifully working version of BG1 installed on a 500GB drive in the old kaput W7/W8 machine before said 500GB drive was transferred to this rig, (and still spins around very well).
Unfortunately, the drive names had changed in the original move, and no fiddling of the ini files changed it. Another side effect of continuing on in a game…[Read more] -

Heh, not unless you’re a super villain, in which case concerns regarding peace, order, and harmony in the community can be left at the door, assuming of course such an item will remain in one piece after your episode of rampant destruction. π

On the list, (so long as Ming matches up with the character portrayed in the comic strip. π )
Six Minutes to Midnight worked as a thriller – 6 or 7 out of 10 perhaps, the critics were obviously put off by extrapolation of the real life events. If they expected more from the film, what?

Okay, so you did have four monitors hooked up to the old desktop rig, do they all have dvi/hdmi/displayport connectors?
Sounds like the new monitor is the one and same in use, right? (Still very much in antique DVI land here, and HDMI still for the televisions. π ) -

Not tempted to see the TV series then?

With enough shopping points accumulated, it was time to make the plunge and nab an S8 Tab. The current S10.1 Tab still works beautifully, although out of O/S support, the 16GB is still plenty of memory, whereas the S8 has a whopping 128GB, most of which will probably not be planned for access. Is there any point in rooting the old S10.5, or should…[Read more]

It was the original, and back on the watchlist as might have confused it with something else. π
Don’t get all of the negative feedback on Legend, even though Scott did take on the task of pruning a fair chunk off the original to “suit the locale.” It’s a fantasy after all, and seemed to be adequate for the genre, although some of the scenes were…[Read more] -

Certainly, or even some aspect of the card itself. Has been tested before. Nothing in the NVIDIA logs of interest, the times of the logged events (adjusted to local time only in their backup files) all point to the time when the driver is loaded. Nothing in the shell, CBS or DISM logs either.
And there’s always the drama with bootup. π -

This could be very much a machine specific issue, as this one has form. Just before submitting an edit to a post, Windows Explorer kicked the pail and restarted, and the Edge tabbed windows assumed a different order. Nothing in the system logs for that, so no way to ever determine if these things could ever be related.
