Re: Bad Graphics

Excellent, good to read you have it sorted. Yes, you need to change both Mode and Depth. Mode is your resolution setting, Depth is for 32bit. You likely already had 32bit working in the game last time but in the in-game menu it showed you an incorrect value of 16bit and you tried to change it. Don't...

Re: Bad Graphics

After installing a new version of Links w/ Nvidia and 1.07 - and enjoying playing and great graphics for about 2 weeks, I made the mistake of switching the Screen Graphic option. It was showing as 800 x 600 16-bit - although the game graphics were great - I was curious what 32 bit would look like. ...

Re: Anyone have gameplay/app problems after last windows update?

Just remembered, Intel CPU’s not supported after the 6th generation. Up to 9 now.
Microsoft are making sure they will eventually control everyone! :laugh:

Re: Anyone have gameplay/app problems after last windows update?

The other thing people need to think about by using just one PC, you can keep say a Win 7 system, forget the updates, they don't matter but the problem you will have is buying new software and games. More and more games and software only work on Win 10. Two system set up is really the only way to go...

Re: Anyone have gameplay/app problems after last windows update?

Danny, The only issue with swappable drive bays is you need hardware capable of running on both Win 10 and Win 7. That option is being taken away for anyone buying a PC today. My Win 10 PC I have to run Win 10 so for any other OS, it has to be another PC. Win 10 is all about control. What is it abo...

Re: New laptop advice?

I've been doing some shopping and I'm considering buying a laptop with an Intel Core i7-9700H processor with a seperate NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 4 GB video card. I don't think it has the integrated Intel graphics on the motherboard. Will that combo work without issues with Links 2003? Sounds like a ...

Re: Anyone have gameplay/app problems after last windows update?

My assumption is that last weeks Windows Update included security changes that do not allow use of programs that were originally installed from CD. There hasn't been anything as such mentioned. Win 10 changes, updates are constantly killing off old software. The errors that the software may throw a...
