Whoo-Hoo, I have bought my first Microsoft game! It’s the classic Monster Truck Madness from 1996. I found it on Anzon MarketPlace 🙂

And it works perfectly on Windows XP despite the fact It’s 10 years old and for Windows 95!
I just suggest you to install the Monster Truck Madness Patch and be sure your monitor “driver” is ok, otherwise it could happen that it flickers in full screen mode heavily (I would get sick!)… 🙁

Also, I suggest you to download all extra tracks that got released!

Enjoy! 🙂

After so many troubles, my ViewSonic VX942 works!

So after all the trouble with support, the new monitor “drivers” fixed all the issues. (that would be ATI’s Flat Panel Configurator would appear sometimes without a reason and flicker when playing Monster Truck Madness (1) in full screen!

and they offer X64 drivers now, too! Whoo-Hoo! 🙂 Enjoy! 🙂

I found this interesting “test” today on Mr. Dew’s Beconfused blog and I found it pretty much interesting since I think it fits to me! 😀

Have you ever noticed someting? Yeah, how to uninstall Windows components (especially of Windows XP) can be found easy in Google. But how to reinstall them is very hard to find. (Since you cannot simply download it seperately and intall it again!

I finally found the answer and solution here! 🙂

Many of you sure noticed the new wave of renaming Microsoft products. On the right side of “Windows Update” I noticed the news “Microsoft Update”! Not that I think it will really give me a lot since I do not have installed Office in that Windows, but newever is newer, right? 🙂

And I have a nice new “Microsoft Update” entry in my START menu now! 🙂

The Beconfused Blog recently reported about IE7, unfortunately I couldn’t do the same, since it does not work on Windows XP 64 Bit yet, this will change soon as you can read on Bink’s website!
But the sarcastic thing is; eventhough the Beta 2 of IE7 is scheduled for April this year, a IE 7 Update for Windows XP x64 Edition (KB904942) is already out! 😀

it fixes “HTTP authentication issues in Windows-based systems that do not appear until Microsoft Internet Explorer 7 is installed.”

Cool! 🙂

Since some letters over Christmas got lost in the post, I complained to some Postal Services.
Belgian Post sent me a reply this week as a registered letter!

I would have preferd that they find my letter instead of sending me a registered letter, but at least they tried, so thank you! 🙂

Hope for better luck next Christmas!….
