Easy game for 4yr old

Yeah. Although "playing" it is a bit different to how I play it. Her favourite bit is doing the jigsaws, and taking the "little boy" to the bathroom. She got the idea of the rewind button pretty quickly, but still asks me to help her with the tricky bits - anything that involves timing. And...

Where can a 5870/5850 fit in the ff. cases?

I sent an email to the Antec Tech support, asking if they had a mATX case that supported 10.5" cards and they replied: I suggest using our Three Hundred enclosure. This will support the video card, and is smaller than most of the other cases. this case is not MicroATX form factor, it is mid...

does anyone know a good bridge (cards) game?

Mr Bridge http://www.mrbridge.co.uk sells an expensive bridge package - QPLUS - I've no idea whether it's any good or what you want. As he's based int he UK, it's probably ACOL based.

Need a good 2 player game

I had most success playing adventure games with my wife. Broken Sword, Grim Fandango, DOTT, Monkey Island that sort of stuff. We also played Vice City and San Andreas together, taking it in turn to do the missions. Also Psychonauts and Fahrenheit in the same way. It's not really two-player...

Counter Strike, Video Cards and servers

You don't need Hamachi, or be on a LAN to host your own server. I regularly host a server for myself and a couple of friends to play on. I think you might need to set sv_lan to 0 (or the opposite of thedefault anyway) in the console to get it to work, but otherwise it should just work. You...

Help solve video bitrate equation

Multiply both sides by I, add a*I to both sides and you get s=a*I + v*I. Then divide by a+v and you get I= s/(a+v)

I want to try something else other than FPS.

Try Psychonauts, Darwinia, Uplink, Space Tripper, Hostile Waters or Beyond Good and Evil. They're all innovative games not confined to a particular genre. Well, except Space Tripper, but that's just lots of fun ;-)

Damaged Partition Table

Hi. A friend of mine has managed to stop his WinXP laptop from booting by corrupting the partition table of the hard disk. He wants me to try to recover whatever data I can from the hard disk. Can I just boot off a knoppix CD and use fdisk to re-write the partition table (it was all one big...

Anyone ever use Handel-C or any other C language for FPGA's?

I haven't actually used them myself, but we did do a comparison between a few of them a while back. We concluded that the only time they're useful at the moment is if you have a bunch of C programmers, and you need to do hardware design quickly, without having time to do much retraining. If...

Stupid VHDL question

You can create a 2d array: TYPE mytype IS ARRAY (NATURAL <>,NATURAL <>) OF STD_LOGIC; SIGNAL mysignal : mytype(10 DOWNTO 0, 10 DOWNTO 0); or TYPE mytype IS ARRAY (31 DOWNTO 0, 1 DOWNTO 0) OF STD_LOGIC; SIGNAL mysignal : mytype; would work, or your plan works too. You put the type...

Why are (many) FPS Fans bored to tears by RTS/RPG Games?

Have you tried Darwinia? It's kindof an RTS, but not really. In fact it's really very hard to describe - just try the demo. It's got a retro theme, but with modern graphics. I can't think of many other games to compare it to without doing it a disservice. It's from indie software house...

Moving XP Pro installation to new motherboard

OK, thanks for the heads-up, I found it. I did do a search before I posted, but I couldn't find anything. But that was a problem with me using stupid search terms, I tried again and got it. You guys are great, even if I'm an idiot. Thanks!

Moving XP Pro installation to new motherboard

I'm upgrading the motherboard, RAM, and CPU in my computer, but keeping all the other components including hard disk, as is. The question is, will I be able to keep my current installation of Win XP Pro, or am I forced to do a re-install? Is there anything I can do in advance to ease the...

Problems mounting a fat32 partition in gentoo -solved

Fixed it! I'd got the codepages wrong. In the kernel config, under the Native Language Support I'd only compiled the european codepage, but in the vfat section I had the american one as the default. Adding the option codepage=850 when mounting meant that it worked perfectly. I'm now...
