Morning All, Y'all think she's playing games? Or is she serious. Any body play chess?

I'll dig out my receipts and add um up in a little bit.
Happy valentines Day https://discussions.virtualdr.com/
And the same to you. Would a digital camera be the way to go to record the building of my computer. Figure you or Train will know the best way to go. https://discussions.virtualdr.com/

It's working! https://discussions.virtualdr.com/ https://discussions.virtualdr.com/
I took the Memorex mouse completely out of the Device Manager and installed the Compaq and it's drivers from the hardware list.
Last night I just plugged it in and the Compaq was still using the Memorex drivers.
I am in the game !! https://discussions.virtualdr.com/
Cool - I can remember not so long ago someone might not have been able to figure it out. I'm working on it QoH. https://discussions.virtualdr.com/

Glad the mouse is working and you're in the game. Have fun with it.
With that DirectX 8a: It's always best to wait a while when a newer version of anything comes out. It's not always best to update drivers. etc. as soon as they become available (with the exception of AV updates, I suppose). Wait a while, see if there are any bug reports, reviews, etc., then make the plunge if you wish. I'm still using 7a on this system--if it works, don't fix it. I could put 8 on this one, and it will probably work, and then again it might blow it out of the water. Like I said, if it works don't 'fix' it.

The DirectX8 was having the mouse problem too. I'll stick with this. It's working great.
I found the refresh rate! I had forgotten to look for that after installing the drivers for this NEC. It was on optimal so I changed it to 60htz. It lists my NEC Multisync 3FGe as the monitor too.
I am having fun with the game ...looking around getting used to the mouse. It looks like I'm there. https://discussions.virtualdr.com/
Here's the specs and the cost for this system. There is some freight too, about 60.00 worth.
Intel Pentium III 866MHz/133MHz system bus FC-PGA 256KB 204.00
Abit 133BX RAID Motherboard 112.00
20Gig Western Digital Hard Drive ATA/100 115.00
256MB RAM 54.00
Hercules Prophet II 32MB Video Card 120.00
Creative Labs Sound Blaster LIVE! Value 54.00
56X CDROM 50.00
floppy drive 30.00
US Robotics 56K internal Pro Modem PCI 70.00
S500 case 56.00
2 Fans & Cyclone & screws & thermal paste 35.00
Golden Orb 13.00
913.00
extras
keyboard & mouse 25.00
surge protector 50.00
mouse pad https://discussions.virtualdr.com/ 15.00 totally unnecessary...who cares! I'm not counting it.
$988.00 https://discussions.virtualdr.com/
Not too bad for a full upgrade.
BTW, if that "Optimal" refresh rate was working for you, change it back (it still may be working at only 60 anyway). According to what I found on that monitor, it will go up to 65hz.
WAIT A MINUTE!! 15 bucks for a mouse pad??? 24k Gold trim????

https://discussions.virtualdr.com/ It's a 3M... naturally. Whad ya 'spect ?
Has a gel wrist rest. It feels good but kinda gets in the way sometimes when I'm scrolling.
Take a small bowl of Jello (strawberry is best)--leave it out for five days and viola! Instant "gel wrist rest"!
Oh bistro. What about those neat looking flat monitors ? ...It is Valentines Day. https://discussions.virtualdr.com/

Ever seen a Pamper in a parking lot wet and swelled up from the rain... or whatever ? I stepped on one once...hummmm felt pretty good. https://discussions.virtualdr.com/
You're right--it's Valentines Day. So why don't you take your sweet, lovin' self down to the shop and buy one for the price of a king's ransom? https://discussions.virtualdr.com/ Have four of them at work at my workstation--3500 each. No thanks. https://discussions.virtualdr.com/
A 17 or 19" Sony will do ya' when you get the buckaroonies. Let your bank account have a rest for awhile though... https://discussions.virtualdr.com/
Hmmmmm...rain-soaked used Pampers....might make a good sound-proofing for the case....hmmmmm. https://discussions.virtualdr.com/
These were at Best Buy and started about 400.00. I had never seen them before. They don't have Sony... or didn't the day I was checking them out.
I am happy with this one. It really looks fine.
Now ...what else do I need...hummm. A CDR-RW ?
Hmmmmm..let's see....you need a ZIP drive, 4 or 5 tape backup units, CD-RW (buy 6 of them), 2 or 3 more hard drives say,...80gb each, an 8-speaker Surround Sound system, an ergonomic computer chair with headrest speakers and foot rudder pedals (for flight games), a completely redecorated room to accomodate all of the above, new shoes (just to celebrate), matching outfit to go with the new shoes that you got just to celebrate,.....
SHOES!!!! That's it !!! https://discussions.virtualdr.com/
I get to buy my own gift cause he's Offshore on a drilling rig. https://discussions.virtualdr.com/
I like the chair idea, too. Every once in a while--usually when I least expect--one wheel comes off this chair. https://discussions.virtualdr.com/
...naaa I'll just fix it. I like this chair. It's an antique leather upholstered. But there is this antique oak desk I kinda have dibs on in the office where TA works. They're redoing with cubbyholes. https://discussions.virtualdr.com/
yeah...That may be the very thing I need. https://discussions.virtualdr.com/
If you get all that "stuff", your husband must own the comp. that owns the oilrig. The rate per day on an offshore is a significant six figure. https://discussions.virtualdr.com/

You can snapshot with the webcamera. That will give what you want I believe, if not you can pull individual frames with graphics programs.

Where are these boots, Train ?
South Seattle near Boing Field. Admit I took a double look the first time I saw them. Glad I was riding in a bus.
Might have to wander up there one of these days and take a snapshot of it.

Nite Train.
https://discussions.virtualdr.com/ Cute greengoose !
bistro,
Last night when I removed the Memorex mouse from the Device Manager, I removed the Memorex first then of course immediately had no mouse and had to shut down. Plugged in the Compaq before restarting and it picked it up, then I did the Compaq drivers. If I were to get a new mouse like the track ball ( sure could manouver in the game easier https://discussions.virtualdr.com/ ) can I add it first, then take the Compaq out ? Or will it be too confusing to have two at the same time in the Device Manager until I remove the Compaq ?
I wonder if I'd have trouble with it like the Memorex mouse playing the game?
You are right https://discussions.virtualdr.com/...this is addicting.
Haven't the foggiest https://discussions.virtualdr.com/ But you'll need to power down, replace the old with the new. Windows should recognize it as a PS/2 mouse. Then load any drivers that come with it.
She's goin' to town...AGAIN..... https://discussions.virtualdr.com/
Gotta get some shuteye...se ya' tomorrow.
Thanks. https://discussions.virtualdr.com/
