White, no coffee
17:35 Friday 21 Sep 07
Coffee-free mac returned complete with 2gb of ram. Nice.
Creative Audigy soundcard arrived, installed and now I have excellent sound.
Jade Empire installed. Game says it won’t work because the gfx card drivers are too old. But the game does run. Which is useful because the latest drivers won’t display games - which is odd. For instance in Neverwinter I can see the cursor but not the actual game screen. Not a big deal though.
Taito Legends bought for the PS2. (It was only 7 quid). So now I get to play Rainbow Islands, Bubble Bobble and Phoenix all on the TV. I have them in MAME but it’s better on the bigger TV.
Not a bad way to head into the weekend.

My last keyboard died after a laughter/super noodles related incident.
The latest Nvidia drivers all seem to be optimised for 8xxx series cards. They forget that some people still use older models. Im sure there was an archive of older drivers somewhere so you can get the last good known build for your particular card, Ill have a look for it later.

Steve - I’m pretty sure I have the latest from them. I’ve tried a couple and this is always good. Dated 20/07/2005 Version 7.7.7.7
Works with everything so I’m good :
