Google is your friend.
sinsin, have you considered BUYING your OS? Like, legal? ;)
The new version is nice and stable here, and all I'd like to do again is ask for 800x600 support. I know it's not so popular these days, but I should think enough people still have a monitor that justifies the "lo-res".
Judge not. You never can tell. I bought XP home, and then my CPU went for repaires, and it came back with XP pro, but somehow the guy who sold it to me managed to mess it up big-time. I bought the OS, but I never got the XP pro CD-ROM, and though there's a serial number on the side of my CPU Windows Validation recognizes my copy as illegal, since the number is for my previous Home edition.
I ain't buying a third copy of XP just becase a tech-guy (whose shop has since shut down) messed up.
So, judge not.
That's why I included the wink- I know there's more than just the illegal way to make Windows go boing. If I did sin unjustice, I apologise. Back to topic, and sorry for the sidetracking.
Whoops... the wink hadn't loaded by the time I had finished writing, so I never saw it! Apologies...
This thread was split from the AGS V2.8 Alpha (http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/yabb/index.php?topic=29789.0) thread.
I had changed the topic also, this discussion is now not suitable for the AGS technical forum.
Also, since this thread is somehow related to illegal software, I'll leave it for the General forum mods to decide if it should be kept open.
Illegal? Not really, google for the Net Framework 2.0 and you'll find pleenty of sites that allow download for it, it being free. The only issue is the Window Validation, and as I described, things can just go haywire even if you do own a legit copy, or at least thought you did when you *paid* for it, as you'd done a few months *before*.
By illegal I'm talking about Window$, not .NET. :P
Ya, if I'd known what trouble this causes, I'd kept that little comment for myself. Apologies.
I found my Post again
No Apologies needed
Yes I am running the OS illegally (yet i thought it was legal at the time) on one of my machienes (My testing Machiene)
But on the other (my game creation machiene) I can get microsoft updates I will just create another user area to avoid further probs

I'm absoluetly lucky.
