As I've told you before, there have been multiple examples.

And I pointed out to you twice why its no good trusting examples, where people dont even respond to our suggestions, to mean that their hardware is incompatible with Links.

expert

Oh this angle of yours is so tiresome, I already told you, no one here is calling themselves an expert. Its only in your head that we all here think we know best and dance around the table in our celebration of how smart we are. We just try our best to help in what ways we can.

memory

Oh the irony again. You of all people blaming others for not being able to remember what people say. I take it youre going to keep ignoring the other parts of my post and still continue with your agenda then? I mean, at least you give me plenty good laughs, and as long as someone will be there to point out your terrible track record for keeping things straight, new people have a chance to avoid being misled by your inaccurate statements, so I mean Im personally fine with you sticking around with your jesting. Anyway, I'll take a test anytime about who among the two of us remember best those threads you're referring to. The people with the problems either didnt match your own hardware+OS criteria or they didnt follow up on what was recommended to them. There is one easy way to prove me wrong, just find and point to your examples. The only example you pointed to back then fits perfectly into the category I described.

Links won't work. He needs the patch. I feel sorry for all the people who won't have access to the patch. Being such a Links expert to call people trolls, hope you can create one for them? The patch won't be given out because of people like you. None of this is my problem, I am using the patch.

Sure, Kiwi_NZ, you indeed have the option to crawl up and kiss the boots of Boot in private message, promising him that you will never ever share with the rest of us the probably-not-fairytale miracle patch which he and his probably-not-fairytale-Links-community made. Ah but he will probably not share it with the excuse that you cant be trusted not to pass it on... You have to show contempt for me and the regulars on this website before they will share anything, so its probably best to say something rude to us first. Then your success will be guaranteed. Maybe.

I mean he might have some patch that does something useful, what do I know, there are certainly a lot of spiteful people around the internet who also happen to be crafty and can make game patches, but the evidence so far has shown that Boot ignores all pieces of info that doesnt fit with what he seemingly from the very start came here to do - declare doom - while mysteriously being unable to provide any sources. And he clearly hates Links Corner, but still sticks around to keep claiming stuff which was already debunked by a post from before he created his account (I have no idea how he's not too embarressed about that to show his face after that going on for so long). Does that sound like something a bored troll who likes causing disruption would do? And whether that indicates that his supposed miracle patch is real? Everyone can decide for themselves...

Otherwise, let us know if the DPI thing wont work Kiwi_NZ? If it doesnt, I see in your reg edit picture that you have Depth set to 0, I recommended 1 earlier (and trying Windowed at both 0 and 1)

make sure Legacy is checked under windows feature/turn on/off....
Where abouts is this found?

run in win 7 compat.....
I am :)

ps vood...o is a bit of a pig to get up and running

I'm not sure ?

What is the resolution of your monitor? Are you running Links V1.07? If you the answer to my 1st question, and the answer to my 2nd question is yes, you should be able to go to "Options/Graphics" and fin your resolution. Should be no need to mess with the registry,

[GoBucks]

But I thought you'd finally given up on your baseless "Links cant be run on win 11 + modern hardware" after your continued failure to acknowledge that you cant provide a single convincing example

Example. As people buy new computers I'm sure you'll have more examples.

You're still here.

It only took you, what, 3 months to find an example since the first of the 5 or so times I asked you to do it. Gratz, you did it!

Except it now looks like there may yet be a chance for Kiwi_NZ to get it to work. You were always quick to count people who "cant run the game because of their hardware", although I will give you that you waited longer than usually this time

Your next task will be to finally address the fact that there was a perfect example of someone who could run the game under your very own criteria for what you claimed there was no one who could run the game with - even after I had given you a direct link to the proof of the opposite(!)

What exactly is the "New" hardware in the computer in question? It was already determined that a 12th gen intel cpu was not "New".

Kiwi, are you running a laptop or a desktop? And is the video card integrated or a regular card?

Links loaded into widow mode , sat there , I could see the links icon top left, though the rest of links wasn't showing, only a black screen.

Desktop. I'm assuming its integrated (how would I find that info?)

No. At the moment this install is fresh , barring the above added help morvio100 has suggested.

At a guess, I need the 1.07 patch next to solve the black screen in links window mode?

Do I need to edit, my links registry",,,,you may not need to.if the patches suffices.....some have gotten away with just the patch....and have not gone to the reg....most people run into probs with resolution issues though....my advice...install the 3/4 patches.....see if Links fires up...if not....head into the reg,,,and make the two adjustments I mentioned...boooyyahhh,,,also be sure ya that Legacy box ticked and make sure that Links V1.07? final patch has been applied last
