Removing the battery for only 10 minutes won't do you any good. The capacitors were nowhere NEAR drained by that time. Pull the battery, pull the ATX power cord from the motherboard and let it sit overnight.

Also, look in the manual for the motherboard for a jumper to short.

That was me Tet. Was looking for it since it got "lost" when my lame ass host moved servers (and neglected to bring over 90% of my stuff....and changed my login username while they were at it!) a few months ago.

Just a suggestion...set your FPS cap in the ini file and make it read only. Theres been a glitch in D1x since 1.40 where it won't save your framecap. It'll work until you exit the program. Once you run it again, its back to 80 by default.

Dosbox runs D1 and D2...just really sluggishly.

D1x 1.43 OGL runs fine on my machine. My only problem is that it only likes my second hat switch instead of my primary one which I use the most. Atleast D2x works with it. Image
