I'm in the community centre as usual to-day and I'm about to look at the Debenhams and S&M websites to see if they have got any vancancies going. Also I will ask one of admins to see if I can change my name back to Love Windows 7.

I really really hope you mean M&S Carl

Yes I did actually, I didn't see what I had typed, sorry.

I love my old Roller Coast Tycoon Deluxe game. Unfortunately it doesn't work well on my Vista computer. I guess I'll have to get my XP laptop out of the storage boxes and play it on there.

Did you try running it in compatibility mode? Who knows it works.

I run it in compat mode, XP SP2. It somewhat works. But I cannot get any of the trainers to work with it. I like to goof off with it, not be under a deadline for finishing things on game time. Supposed thge 4cars trainer will work with it, but I cannot find it. I ofund lots of trainers, but they either lock my computer, or don't recognize the version of rct I have.

Found 4cars, but it doesn't work with deluxe. I was using rcttrainer, but it locks the game and my computer up... but used sparingly, I can use the rcttrainer program.

Not nice enough to walk Gracie to-day, I will be going to my charity shop shortly as usual.

Update: My new Windows XP with SP3 disc has just arrived in the post, so I might do that dual-boot thing later on to-day.

Carl you told earlier that no more XP will be there

I rather liked Windows XP.

Today I feel like upgrading my new laptop to Windows 8 Pro.
They have even given me a promo code to upgrade.

Thinking...

Do you know the retail price, Dinesh?

I may get it, alongwith a new HDD .... not very sure though.
BTW, is it true anyhow?

From 2nd June 2012 until 31st January 2013, users currently running PCs with Windows XP, Windows Vista or Windows 7 are qualified to download Windows 8 Pro for an estimated price of Rs. 1,999. Those who wish to buy a DVD to upgrade will have to pay Rs. 3,499. This offer is valid until January 31, 2013. After that the OS is expected to be priced above Rs. 11,000.
