  1. I'll swap you 1 Trump for a Boris Johnson, David Davis, Michael Gove and a Therasa May-bot. It'll be OK - he'll just be playing golf up in Scotland all the time. Oh that and bulldozing Grade 2 listed buildings to build more courses. Oh, and also pumping out pure carbon monoxide at voluminous rates into the atmosphere form his ears and pouring bleach into the oceans from his nose. lol @tthurman's ninja'ing - calling me on stereotypes 2.3 and 2.6!
  2. Bless you.
  3. Looks purdy, but really could do with a video on their promo page! Reminds me of this:
  4. Yeah! Give us our land back. After all, we deserve all of the world's land and resources purely by virtue of the fact that we are British. That and the fact that we let go of any form of true identity just after the Celts. Enjoy your root beer, wieners, super bowl and MTV. (Did I miss out any other stereotypes?)
  5. No, but a few people I know at work RSODs.
  6. That'd be a nice resto, Draco + looking at that pic, I bet you could easily fit a usb HD in the computer. My mate's just lost his dad and he was reciting stories of his youth with his ZX Spectrum+. So I'm gonna knock him one together using a RPi3 which also gives me practice with Pi's (never had one before):
  7. Yeah, could be a prob with my existing install, although this was a fresh W10 image onto a fresh SSD with minimal junk installed. Don't get me wrong, I like Microsoft. There. I said it. I think BG's staying true to his original passion and visions around computing - I mean, check Visual Studio Community - free, powerful and feature packed (with very little limitation for hobby coders). I'm just letting off steam because the idea of BSODs from Windows updates is, well, ya know... It might install correctly next time, who knows?
  8. Mae culpa. I suck at mario. Thanks fellas. The odroid xu4 is a bit more expensive than the rpi3, but totally worth it for the incresed specs. Also handles n64, psp, dreamcast and psx with ease. Yerp, its crammed, hans, but designed to be tiered to allow airflow from the fans with components on nylon standoffs to each other. Alot to get in including a pico psu to split the voltage rails into 12 and 5v supplies and power the usb3 hub and a 1tb drive! I wouldnt gut a heavy sixer. Those bad boys need to be gathered in one place and rennovated as far and as numerously as possible. This one was dead. Damn.. I guess the questions about the blue in the cartridge slot were innevitable.. originally intended to be a 2x16 character display to display system and game dets etc.. sadly, the image im using (batocera) is great but very locked down so hard to install custom scripts. Also the dev is french, so hard to communicate with. His english is as bad as my french. So left it 95% complete. A state of being I need very much to learn!
  9. Naw - didn't know that Dazzle, but didn't download/install manually. Rather MS was (rather aggressively - 'install now or snooze' every boot) prompting me to install after automatic download. We'll see how it pans out..But if they keep pestering to upgrade then gonna be a PITA.
  10. Hmmm.. had a problem with this update tonight on my Nostromo cab. Installed fine to my main/dev PC a week ago - no probs. However, sat working whilst it tried installing the update onto my cab + half way through the process (not sure which stage, but the bit where it says it may restart a few times - the configuration stage?) it BSOD'ed. After restart, Windows said reinstalling last Windows installation. Seems to be running fine on rolled back version. My cab has windows 10 fresh out the box (brand new W10 install to SSD drive) and was all up to date. Now, I'm very nervous....
  11. until

    @tthurman Ha! Awesome - thanks, T! Love the header pic too!
  12. Thanks, man. Yeah - getting towards the final stages of my cab too, so head down and cracking on with final software setups and then to sideart, control panel coverings and lastly, the plexy and marquee bezel. Then..done!

  14. Great update. A Nav panel on the LHS is a great addition. +1 on tthurman's suggestion. A Light/Dark theme switch would be cool beans. I like all my software black
  15. This guy made a good suggestion...
  16. So... you tried it, right?
  17. Unfortunately, you cannot customise the font outlines or drop-shadows at the moment. However, Evo will contain many font customisation options...
  18. Ripping out the guts + replacing with a sbc to make it multi-system. Sin or Sure thing? Discuss!
  19. You could do both (change labels and menus) via the Custom menu function: Programs>GameEx>Configuration>Custom Menus
  20. Pah. All gone again... Nintendo are getting on my nerves with this bullshit.
  21. Damn. "Currently Unavailable" - sold out already?
  22. tthurman, chap. You are the bastion of news bulletins. Ensure you inform us the minute this goes on pre-order.... Gotta slap an Odroid XU4 in that badboy!
  23. Blimey - that's some amazing memory right there, Hans, but no. It's not Uncharted Not Cave story either... It's a PS4 exclusive and being touted as its new "IP" (is that the right term? meaning a title like Halo etc)
