wow, its a pain to log in with such a long username. anyway, i got it sorted out. i had to set the hardware clock from the terminal. FINALLY.

I have Arch Linux on my laptop. It's great, I love it, it works well with KDE. There is one problem though: the time is always wrong! I can change it to normal if I log in to root and change the time zone to what its supposed to be, -8:00GMT Pacific US/Canada. I then log out of root, and into my main account. Now, the time is correct. When I reboot, however, it resets to whatever it was before I changed it. I checked the BIOS settings, and Windows 7 has no time problems. The problem seems to be with Arch not remembering what time zone I set.

Wow, I haven't been on this forum for AGES! I got a Sega Game Gear in July, and I already have eight games for it. Adventures of Batman & Robin, The Castle of Illusion Starring Mickey Mouse Columns Micro Machines Sonic the Hedgehog Sonic the Hedgehog 2 Tale Spin X-Men I'm still collecting them, so... Do you have any suggestions? Is there anything I should avoid at all costs? What are your all-time Game Gear/Master System favourites?

Ok, lets start from the beginning... My laptop came with Windows 7 (Ultimate) and I have noticed that older applications (including games, and command prompt) were unable to run in fullscreen mode. I knew this was probably because I was running them in Windows 7, and I decided to install Windows XP to run all my old games and applications. I installed Windows XP successfully on a separate partition, and installed all of the required drivers, and the old programs worked! One problem: Windows XP boot-loader had overwritten the Windows 7 one, and I couldn't boot Windows 7, it would go straight into XP. I fixed that problem: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/919529. But now, the OS choices menu won't show up, and the computer boots directly into Windows 7. It still shows up in the command bootcfg /query though. C:\Users>bootcfg /query Boot Loader Settings -------------------- timeout:30 default:multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(4)\WINDOWS Boot Entries ------------ Boot entry ID: 1 OS Friendly Name: Microsoft Windows XP Professional Path: multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(4)\WINDOWS OS Load Options: /noexecute=optin /fastdetect Boot entry ID: 2 OS Friendly Name: Microsoft Windows 7 Ultimate Path: multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(0)\WINDOWS OS Load Options: /noexecute=optin /fastdetect C:\Users> But it does not show up here: Any ideas? I would rather avoid re-installing Windows XP or 7 (especially 7) if it could be avoided. BTW, the boot.ini is located on disk 0 partition 3. The drive is called System.

lol this is like a year or so old... 1 reply.... nice..... even though ur a noob on these forums...

how do i get the mouse function to work? the touch screen just acts as a bunch of buttons. and by the way, add a background when using the touch screen in button mode, so one can actually tell which buttons one is using! thanks!!! *EDIT*: okay, all i had to do was switch to a different profile, press done, then switch back to the profile i wanted to use before. the profile just isnt updated right away. perhaps a bug that theeds to be fixed (or SQUASH!ed, lol). and also, it'd be great if it was compatible with macintosh computers. mac os, etc. without using crossover and crap; i dont own any of the mac computers that i use, so i cant use crossover anyway, its a great application. other than adding a background so you can see what touchscreen buttons you are pressing, and fixing that thing i just mentioned about profiles, and also having the touchscreen be used as if it were a mousepad, its pretty good on the ds side. but mac support is needed along with better gui or watever for linux (who uses linux? i used to; dont like it; never will like it). this is, by FAR better than win2ds or ds2win. virtually NO lag, works with everything i have tried so far (i dont play online games only nes, snes, gb, gba, gbc, psx, nds, and some pc games). i should check it out on addictinggames.com or onemorelevel.com. but i've been too busy. and, finally, you should be PAYED for the hard work and effort put into this. not that we should need to pay you a nickel each time we want to download it, but, this is just as good as my PHILIPS retractable pc controller. as far as mouse goes, ds2key leaves philips in the dust. as far as ease of use, no drivers to download but its only fully compatible with linux and pc. and wireless router is manditory. i rate: 9.25/10

Really? but i found this and i think psx games can be played as well as psp games: http://psp3000hacks.com/psp-3000-hacks/cus...a-cfw-released/ I saw a video on youtube with a link to the above page. never knew i would find it on youtube i have a psx so now i can dump my games and play them on psp anywhere i go if i get this thing set up. but i dont know if it will work on the most recent 3000s. i haven't got my psp yet. gonna wait till january or february, maybe. im very patient so that wouldn't be a problem.

wtf forget it i will do research on my own!!! nobody shall help me.

get a cyclods evolution. end of story.

lol i havent been on this forum for a long time. many of the emulators i try dont work and my flash cart gets clutteredand its hard to set up so many emulators at once.

but how do i flash it?

rather not... could go horribly wrong. i would rather order something from the internet. but how do i do this? I will consider (btw its a psp 3000)

hi, i am thinking of getting a psp for my brother. but i know little about the psp. so are there any devices for the psp that allow you to run homebrew (such as emulators) and run backed up psp roms? my brother goes through games like crazy and we want to try them out before we get them and run emulators and homebrew and stuff. something similar to the r4 or acecard or cyclods evo for the ds? thanks in advance, ER
