I got sick of the continuous, high risk of getting BSOD, so I downloaded Kobayashi Maru 1.0. after installing it and fiddling with settings, I started up the game with bit of a warm up, Excalibur versus couple Hutets. After making mince meat of them, I decided to take a look around. First I went to Arcturus, just to see if it's as big as people claim. Well, I was thoroughly impressed by it. 8) then, I went to earth, and got all giddy when I pointed out countries, which earned a couple funny looks from the fellow officers. :? But then..
I gave order to go to Wolf 359. and let's just say that the ship didn't enter warp until I pointed a phaser towards Saffi. after that, everything seemed to go fine.. until I realized that the trip went on and on. Obviously my computer has coward for an AI, and it froze from terror just thinking about meeting those biomechanical lawyers. thus, it just gave me the typical "STBC has encountered an error"-excuse and dropped me back to desktop.. :arms:
It seems that my poor old computer isn't able to handle awesomeness called Kobayashi Maru. Thus, I've decided to start building a new, better rig to replace this ancient (2004) , noisy SOB. Sadly, I know nothing of computers, but luckily I have a geeky-ish friend who has plenty of experience and who will build and order the parts. After getting addicted just from 10 minutes of KM, I need more, and since my current computer isn't able to deal with it ( I suspect that 512Mb of RAM isn't quite sufficient, not to mention my poor X850 128Mb Graphics card and asthmatic 2.08Ghz CPU..), new rig will be built soonish. I hope.
