Title: Borrowing Anothers Vision
Description: XP troubleshooting and abandonware guide

Hopefully here we can share our problems and solutions.
Windows is ****
There is no alternative however.
The current generation of games rely on presentation more that ingenuity, once below a time this was reversed and games had little to go on to give us the experience of their dreams.

The stuff that matters has never flourished, people get overwhelmed and thank the bright red billboard for filling their vision and telling them what to do (think).
What is normal.
I am more interested in the insane struggle to be wrought with the pains of reality, the fact that we will soon die, that we will not reach anywhere, our feet will stay on the ground and we will end up like anyone else, similar individuals, filling a niche.

Games are puzzles you walk into to piece together.
Shooting hoards of indians is child's play, stealing cars is insecure defiance; big-timing yourself with unearned power. Is there a game about seduction in an epic cityscape? Part of a journey of a man/woman preoccupied with strange lifestyles?
Hitmen?
Do you want to do it like you would in real life?
Unfortunately most believe life is simple. I could write 40 pages on an operation to secure a small east Timor shack that would last 2 minutes in real time. A book for a day with a woman. A paragraph for GTA.

What made you smarter growing up?
-Lego
-......
-Lego
There is quite a lot. Please give all you can, that you would force on your own child. Things that make a person.

Problem
I run DOSBOX on most 98- games, the more complex ones have troubles. Such as Blade Runner. Does anyone here know of the best dos programs for XP out there?
Ones that work, all the time with minimum effort. I don't understand why there isn't a clear winner in this field, something that you install and starts itself up when needed.

Suggestion
Heart of Darkness
(Joseph Conrad or Amazing Studio; you deside)
(Anything would be better than the 19th century congo)

-No fucking way
Good. Your going to iraq to get shot.

All of your posts are the most bizarre things I have ever read. WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU? I HAVE NO IDEA WHT YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT!

Arma - October 2, 2005 03:15 PM (GMT)
HL2 is all that you understand and are able to mutter.

When you leave the cage and venture into the world, be stripped of your dignity and fight for your stance maybe your tongue will be more than a device for cleaning porridge from your face.

I don't know your problem or I hope I don't. No-one gets anyone else, we all interpret things differently, it's good when we move forward and try to do so though. Apply our attention, but fps has probably taken your balls, I could beat the **** out of you even if you held a gun to my face, I wouldn't even try to take it from you. If you pulled the trigger and missed I would bite off all your fingers at the second knuckle. Threats are for weaklings, i'm just freestyling, those aliens you blast may have some sentience, have you ever thought of that?

What hell are we making for our A.I?
No free thought or contemplation, like a machine. Would mechanics without blood or electrons ever be aware?
I take it you are still on the road, need to be kicked off so you start using your head, seems now even people who have it hard don’t use it to become smarter, or instill the drive to make the world better.

It's no secret, I made this thread because some games I like don't work on my XP while they should. I want to send them as gifts for someone I am pained to think about. Must make sure they work for her.

Yes this is the wrong place to do anything, this is how I communicate online, life I am much clearer not because I want to be but because it is required of me. I don't look for forums, I like music, most of what others have to say about life bores me.

For once in your slow death try to make something not maintain your own image, which is pissweak. Maybe try again with a name change. No maturity, just honesty. Are you simple?
Why?
Is it a problem?
How can I resolve?

Do you even care? I don't give a ****, just stop responding for fame and glory, don't quote ****, touch the keyboard with no ________
Start being abnormal
If you want to

Arma - October 2, 2005 03:47 PM (GMT)
All the things you consider wrong with me are what make me alright.
Lyrics probably are ignored by you.
I've never been a child so I can't sympathize, I got into it early, woke up and pushed others out of the way so I could see and walk ahead, exposing my back.

No-one is ever offended by mediocrity.
Wrong!
It takes immense complexity and real confidence to make a woman happy. There are so few men out there. I know less than 10.

Are you a coward?
Learn to headbut, once you break someones nose and they see the blood the fight is usually over as they go to fix their face. Frogs do not get the kiss.

Your elbow is harder and carries more weight than your fist and palm. You can do more than swing with them as well you can lunge and lift up under the jaw. As soon as you get on the defense you lose, always attack. Learn Judo, it is a rhythm of disabling motions you can get to feel. Not a 'martial art' based on hurting your opponent like karate. Only dickheads believe in blocking aggression, I assure you, you will never be that good. Should teach you to parry knife thrusts as well.
Carry a knife and your opponent will use it on you. I would rather break the shin of my opponent, than kill him over my wallet.

Why say any of that?
You need to be strong enough to take anything, a guy that can't give his lover safety in his arms is a joke.

But i'm happy as a gimp
Do whatever pushups, turning situps, chinups and distance runs with weights you can, swim underwater and travel. Do more over time but keep up a routine like brushing your teeth. Easy to do your limit be happy with the immediate results and give up. Do a little but do it on an ongoing basis and your body will adapt.

Your mind and body are not two separate things. It is all you, if you've dissected **** for biology disregard the crap, don’t see the workings of a person when you look at them. We are tougher than steel, flesh and bone my arse, we are willpower.

The only excuse I have for not posting replies to 'how can they be better' is that I haven't started, so much in the bottle, all struggling to get out at once.

Wish there were some girls here, they get a whole lot more than we do.

Huh. If you have not noticed, this is a gaming forum, I came here to talk about games. Yeah, HL2 is my favorite game. When I come to a gaming forum, all I'm going to really think about is games. If it makes you feel special to write about random things in an incredibly boring way. You know: Mean people suck! My "what the hell" comment refers to your picture of a person with their chest torn open. And, I state firmly again, "WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU?" I came here because I like to play games, and this is a great place to talk to people who share my fondness for games, to get the excellent music from my favorites; not to read posts by some freak who thinks he is amusing by putting sick pictures and talking in poinless rambling paragraphs. Who do you think finds this entertaining? Do me a favor, go to a different forum, and find somone who cares.

Also, try to work on not being such a friggen jerk.

Cartooning Monkey out.

cartooning_monkey - October 3, 2005 06:49 AM (GMT)
Sad really, you have never seen my face, heard me speak, know my intellect, or my social status. You are fighting blindly, and believing you can win.

Arma - October 3, 2005 01:02 PM (GMT)
Your words make a poor face. Every character you don't type reveals your 'intellect'.
I don't give a **** of your social status. Am I insulting you?
That's your interpretation, maybe you are offended because what I speak of is common knowledge and screwing around is not.

I spent quite a while on some of that crap, the very basics; you need to take control of your person before you go forward, others won’t look after you forever. One day you will be the one, start improving.
TV, your friend says your ok, I say watch THX 1138

Do you know what it is to do what you want?

"I like HL2 because _________________________________________________________"

I suffer that I can't reach out and touch the woman I (love?) crave.
Games are an antidote, some are more acid that eats at your being. We can't handle the good stuff.

I am not fighting or even being aggressive, but it seems you are, and i'm not feeling the annoyance of you absent muscle (your brain).

At least you are saying something......no that's still ****. Needing to defend yourself. How would you handle torture?

There is gore in your games, caused by you, just like your vote. You don't see the relation?
You are certainly out, what the hell would anyone want you in?

cartooning_monkey - October 3, 2005 04:21 PM (GMT)
You do not seem to remember, or even understand the meaning of your own words.

Arma - October 3, 2005 07:00 PM (GMT)
ok, explain
?
HL2 is good, and that is all you say. Go on; try to be better through making others worse. You're a big boy now.
Acceptance is puerile (that could be a compliment if you said a way of making myself a bit however you like)
Arma

Ah well, do you know of a way that you can win the argument? I would be more content to have no childs tears fingering me as the cause of your school rampage.
I don't need to prove **** all, to myself with you.

What would make you feel good about yourself?

cartooning_monkey - October 4, 2005 02:13 AM (GMT)
I do not need any of your therapeutic crap, thank you very much. You have created a character of me, that character is someone who you know nothing about and speak to with commanding authority. Please, you appear to be troubled, I wish not to argue with someone I do not know, and make things worse for you. I have absoulutly nothing against you, and I wish, for the sake of those who control this forum, and those who read these posts, to be spared our pointless babble. We can gain nothing and lose nothing, so why waste our time? Please let me enjoy this forum in peace. By that, I mean:

Hold off on the swearing. I prooves nothing but a lack for words (which you clearly do not) and offensive to some.

Can we avoid pictures that may be deemed offensive, I really do not need to see crap like that when I'm enjoying a VG forum, besides, that's what Newsweek is for.

Some sentences are a waste of post space and create longer scroll times, I really, really, don't care about your personal life, sorry, but I don't. Unless it involves games then, GO RIGHT AHEAD!

Sex isn't what I'm here to talk about. If you want to talk about animalistic pleasure, please do it somwhere else.

You speak with wisdom, but you speak as if you only are pretending you know everything I can tell you are intellegent, but please stay within your boundaries.

I simply enjoy life, while you appear to not. Cartooning Monkey is my name because I find it happy, carfree and childlike: innocent, which the world is not. I am not a simple person, I find it much easier if the outlook is pleasant, which is not always easy to maintain in this world. You speak about maturity although you think like you are in Junior High. Unconfident, angry, aroused, and cruel. Trying to convince the world you know more than you really do. You are intellegent, but you make yourself appear not when you speak crudely, in a common voice, a voice of tough determination, but not the brains to back it up. You are determined, and you are intellegent. There is no reason to argue, I will make peace, I hope you will follow my lead, it is what I believe the better way..

And that is all I have to say.

Arma - October 4, 2005 12:59 PM (GMT)
What ever dribble fell from me onto this forum was worth that response.
I don't usually get more than swear words thrown at me like 'hello' and 'alright' both meaningless questions.

I wanted to get a reaction out of people because it seems their alkalinity goes with anything. Immune to empathy. From cheap representation of things so filled with meaning you break down in a confused cry. I distance myself from what I type and write, I do not want _______(?)_______ but I do guess now that I care what people think and have been uplifted by your response. Sorry to have treated you poorly, I have lost a lot of hope over the last few years, or is that the other way around?

I am reassured that it would be a travesty to murder another human being and will strive to get myself over to Sweden to study Creative writing and fictional discourse. I feel older than my 20 years, and don't know how I would fit among 'young people', sad. If I had someone to relate to I would not be sad, but I have had myself as I always had, and I am beginning to feel that is not enough.

People who searched for the music in extreme-G are people I would like to learn from, but posts so far have been unhuman. Reports from observational satellites.

I'd be thrilled to have something in my face I can smile at; a concept I had not thought of. One day I would like to make a game/movie/script/painting/novel ahead of the scum. Make us wonder at the world again before we are lowered into the system (whatever you picture that to be). See the world in front of us and around us, not look for contours on a map or pictures in travel guide. To have the world and reality still grow.

I am fiercely independent, I don't know what made that me but it is something I used to be proud of. I need no-one but I am built by the happiness of a girl. Sex is entering games. But going to shallow, we haven't begun to climb, we aren't sluts. There is a whole lot more than pop music has destroyed.

All I really say is that Blade Runner....Blade Runner.
But you have so much more to say.

Arma - October 9, 2005 07:20 AM (GMT)
It doesn't work on my XP dipshit.

I asked the question, you resaid the question. Why would I want to grow up and join you, I am happy to be the foundation.

I don't like holding hands, but I like something, you will no know what that is for a while I suppose.
