Links Corner Forum

I think it has me beat. my procedure was: Disconnected internet. I used the spreadsheet to track down possible conflicts or files left over from an old installation but couldn't find anything. Installed Links 2003 from CD's to Windows 10 installed 1.07 Patch as admin installed Nvidea patch as admin...

I have similar issues and can no longer get Links 2003 to load. I installed via CD's Patched to v1.7 All I get is a small black window screen then "not responding" Can't change display modes in registry either as it doesn't exist - very strange. I thought it was the latest AMD Adrenalin D...

It is the "after a number of retries it works" that has me head scratching. It is most uncomputer like, some intermittent faults can be understood as there are trigger conditions that occurs at some point, but loading a program should be fairly consistent. In the case of Links you are alw...

I also think Links looks better on my 1920 x 1200 screen rather than my 1920 x 1080. Alas I am limited as to what screens I can use with what systems so cannot have the optimal setup. You are certainly getting some unusual results, it is a head scratcher. Just finished playing 9 holes with 'The Chi...

I read your specs that is what started me thinking. I'm surprised with your results, I would not have expected mode 15 to work given your screen's aspect ratio, I have not had any luck mixing aspect ratios within what my systems support. I was thinking windowed mode 14 may have worked better becaus...

@mailman Does it work any better if you use mode 14 (1920 x 1080) and set Links to be Windowed? Mode 14 (1920x1080) is what I have been using since getting Links 2003 to run and run in fullscreen mode on my 2k monitor (see specs). As an experiment I tried to run it in windowed mode (registry window...

When I start it, The links splash show up but then a black box shows and the game CTD's before I can even read the black box. I am running Windows 11 with a Nividia GE Force RTX 3050 . I have have looked over this forum,but can't see a fix for this problem though other people have probably had it. ...

I experimented again this morning with the image quality that I am seeing on Links 2003 (when it runs that is :rofl: ) on Windows 11. This morning saw the same pattern of irregular starts but at least it was starting within a few minutes (best number of restarts was 4, I think - worst time to start ...

Andy, I got new computer a few months back. AMD Ryzen 9 9900X, RTX 4070 GPU, 2TB NVMe drive split into 2 partitions (1 for OS and programs and I have Links installed on the 2nd partition). Had no real problems installing Links other than the highest registry setting that I can use for the screen di...

Is "less than 10 restarts" the best you've gotten thus far? I ask, because that 2003 starts at all, albeit only intermittently, must mean you're getting close. Check box here, setting change there . . . got to be something. Just before retiring - took me about 15-20 I reckon so it has sta...
