I should probably back up all the work on my 8 year old comp that has all my calc programming stuff.  It's just that it's not compatible with any Jump Drives for some reason.  Any USB 1.0 jump drives still on the market?

ARE there any usb 1.0 jumpdrives? O_Oshocked2.gif Also, you sure it isn't just your os? Windows 98 regular doesn't support jumpdrives at all and for the second edition, you have to dl a driver and install it.

 Yeah... I had a 128Mb USB 1.1 jumpdrive... until I fried it. :dissapointed:nonono.gif (I rigged it and hooked the +5v up to the wrong pin... whoops)

USB 1.1 jumpdrives are compatible with USB 2.0 computers as well as USB 2.0 jumpdrives are compatible with USB 1.1 computers.

You are correct... Win98 first edition does not support jumpdrives -- period.

Do you have a LAN set up? If you don't now, you should do it right away. It is invaluable. At my house, we have an old crappy win98 compy and a new fancy one with XP as the os, and even though it was a hassle to set up, 'tis most definitely a good thing. The LAN that is.

 If you can't setup a LAN, you could always zip them up and email them to yourself. ;)wink.gif

Or, you could always go with the brute force method...

Pull the harddrive out of the old, set it as a slave drive, then put it in your new computer. :ihatemycomp:crash.gif

 I still planning for Summer 2006.

Hopefully, beta testing can begin within a few months.

Question:

Do you ever change code that works perfectly well, and later revert back to your original method?

What do you think? Do you chalk it up as a learning experience and move on? Or, do you get angry for time wasted?

Well... Right now I am changing my tilemap engine back to what is was prior to December. I was attempting to come up with a speedy method for scrolling the map as well as managing items found via the 'search' command. I made that work, however, it broke the towne gates and mirror reflection. It was going to take too much memory to fix these issues. Oh well... If we could only see the future of our decisions.

i understand what u mean, happens to programmers all the time ;)wink.gif
sometimes you find a peice of ur code that you think is crazy, you try to fix it up and make it better, but in the end, it might just overcomplex and makes things worse. i say "live and learn." always learn from mistakes :Dbiggrin.gif

Not entirely off topic, but go to ebay, and search for Ultima, then look in games. Lots of cool stuff there... :Dbiggrin.gif
