Links Corner Forum

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...

Hope that the videocard.txt is the answer! Made no difference However a slightly more interesting experience the last couple of days has been to 1. Continue with having Links MMIII.exe on the taskbar and attempt running it from there (rather than a shortcut or using LinksLauncher) 2. Have Links MMI...

Here is what I added to the videocard.txt file: 0x67DF = "Radeon RX 570 Series" DefaultBltNotFlip NoCopyZInVidMem I believe the parameters I added were per the guidance I found in whatever thread detailed how to do this . . . memory is starting to fade as to specifics with respect to orig...

I have tried with and without a modified Videocard.txt file but Links is picking up and identifying my 4060Ti GPU either way. I know you stated that you had changed your Videocard.txt file but did you change any of the videocard configuration parameters for your particular GPU ? To my knowledge I h...

Did you try installing Links on both of your SSD and HDD (separately)? Excuse my language but what you describe about how it wont launch until after multiple times sounds so effing weird. I dont know too much about computers but the only thing I can think of that it reminds me of is when systems st...

The thing that still has me scratching my head is the intermittency of when Links loads. When it does, it works well. Hmmm . . . question: do you shut down your system when you're done for the day or with your session? If so, does 2003 run the first time when you turn the computer back on? Or do yo...

The thing that still has me scratching my head is the intermittency of when Links loads. When it does, it works well. Exit the game and start another session with or without rebooting or changing any settings leads to this merry-go-round of being unable to start it consistently.

Fired up this morning as a couple of restarts but then had a period where it seemed to be stubbornly refusing to start up but after a spell of being in the garden patching the lawn I had another go. Took maybe 6/7 restarts before Links played ball again and loaded up. :laugh: Annika was not best ple...
