When Hurricane Helene hit my home in Asheville, North Carolina in September 2024, two oak trees fell through the roof and wrecked the place. Including my upstairs living room and the main LGR vintage computer collection downstairs where lots of rain water leaked through, each causing water and mold issues. This part of the cleanup process is unboxing the moldy boxes, evaluating the damage, and cleaning the surfaces of things! Internal cleaning and testing is for later. ● Western NC is still recovering!

Two trees cleaved through my house after Hurricane Helene blew through my mountain home of Asheville. While I’ve shown that the damage to the structure is intense, many have asked what happened to the LGR retro collection, vintage computers, video games and such. So here’s an update! Of course the most important thing to me is that myself, my family, and my friends here are safe. But I am also deeply thankful it was not any worse in terms of items destroyed or damaged. The majority of old hardware and software survived, and LGR videos (eventually) will continue! ● Consider donating to local organizations helping Western NC recover: https://www.bpr.org/bpr-news/2024-09-28/list-ways-to-donate-and-help-flood-victims-in-western-north-carolina-after-hurricane-helene ● LGR elsewhere: https://www.twitter.com/LazyGameReviews https://www.facebook.com/LazyGameReviews https://www.patreon.com/LazyGameReviews 00:00 progress so far 01:00 inside damage 04:06 affected items 09:38 stuff safe in storage #LGR #asheville #hurricane

I've made a huge mistake and ignored the first rule of vintage computing: NEVER buy an old inkjet printer, especially a 90s Canon. Yet here we are with a BJC-2000 color printer from 1999... in an ideal world this was gonna be a fun romp into Windows 95 Bubble Jet printing, plus a test of the IS-22 scanner cartridge.

Taking a retrospective look at the Toshiba Libretto W100, an innovative dual 7-inch touchscreen UMPC from 2010!

The reviews must flow! And the spicy subject here is the first computer game adaptation of Dune, made by Cryo Interactive and Virgin Games in 1992. Take control of Arrakis as Paul Muad'Dib Atreides, reclaiming spice mines from the evil Harkonnens and forming a Fremen army to dominate the planet!

Checking out the odd Titans Sphere by SGRL from 1998! Intended as the ultimate controller for 3D games in the late 90s, the Sphere was a failure on practically every level.

For some reason I bought this cheap OptiPlex from 2004. So let's take a look at it! From my view, it's easily one of the most undesirable computer systems ever.

Celebrating the 25th anniversary of SimCity 3000! The third game in the classic Maxis city builder series had a false start in 3D form, but after EA took over and development restarted, the final 1999 game ended up being my favorite in the franchise.

Unboxing and testing even more weird old mouse devices on a Windows 98 PC!

Unboxing and enjoying the Tomy Omnibot 2000! A 26-inch home robot that can speak, play music, bring you drinks, and generally felt like 'THE FUTURE' in the 80s. While still a toy, it actually sorta comes close to the type of droid popularized in sci-fi, which back then featured all manner of automaton companions.

Gameplay and overview of the FIFTEENTH expansion pack to The Sims 4. This time it's all about rental units.

A retrospective look back at what I consider to be the MOST confusing Sims release: The Sims 2 Holiday Edition. All of 'em!

Celebrating the 30th anniversary of SimCity 2000 with an LGR retrospective review! The sequel to the classic Maxis city builder was a true game changer in 1993, improving nearly every part of the game and adding so many things that would become staples of the genre.

Checking out the world's first (and only) digital camera using Iomega Clik disks for storage! Each disk held 40MB and cost just $10, a tenth the price of CompactFlash. Quite impressive in 1999!

An LGR review of the Book 8088 and Hand 386, newly-made retro computers on Aliexpress! No emulation here, these are DOS PCs running an 8088 and 386SX processor, using legacy chips on custom PCBs melded with open source projects, off-the-shelf components, and injection molded enclosures.

In 1999, Creative Labs released the SurroundStation – a metal framework for mounting rear channel speakers onto foldable hollowed-out arms. It's neat! But it ain't much without speakers.

The eMachines 566ir is a computer I appreciate less for its capabilities, and more for the context in which it existed in the year 2000. Retail rebates that made it cost $0* to take home, plus the infamous claim of NEVER being obsolete!

MP3s! In the late 90s few things were more exciting in the world of music, computers, the internet, and general gadgetry. And the original 1998 Diamond Rio was one of the trailblazers that kicked off the whole portable digital audio player craze. It may not have been the very first, but it came close! If nothing else, its impact was noteworthy from being the first to be commercially successful in North America, and the legal pushback it endured from the RIAA set a lasting precedent for all other MP3 players to come. ● LGR links: https://www.patreon.com/LazyGameReviews https://www.twitter.com/LazyGameReviews https://www.facebook.com/LazyGameReviews ● All background music licensed from: http://www.epidemicsound.com #LGR #Retro #Technology

3D Lemmings (aka Lemmings 3D) was released in 1995, and it wasn't long before it got its own Christmas holiday themed edition, "Winterland." As far as 90s 3D updates to classic 2D games go, it wasn't awful! Assuming you can solve its biggest puzzle of all: 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐥𝐲 𝟑𝐃 𝐜𝐚𝐦𝐞𝐫𝐚. RE-UPLOAD: Added some effects to the intro skit. I ended up receiving a bunch of comments from folks saying how much they disliked it, were confused by it, or even found it offensive. That is not the kind of response I ever want from a video, so it seemed worth re-editing. No one made any demands, but to me it made sense to edit things in order to avoid confusion in the future. In hindsight, the original skit out of context did not convey what I envisioned for the clone storyline anyway (the busted clones being stuck in a glitchy digital simulation.) The only thing different is there are now audiovisual glitches to imply the clones are broken sims, continuing the story in episodes from years prior. Everything else in the video remains the same! 00:00 Council of the Christmas Clones 01:09 Throwback LGR Intro 01:27 Lemmings and 3D Lemmings 03:48 3D Lemmings Winterland 11:48 Game End and Summary ● LGR links: https://www.patreon.com/LazyGameReviews https://www.twitter.com/LazyGameReviews https://www.facebook.com/LazyGameReviews ● Background music licensed from: https://www.epidemicsound.com #LGR #Christmas #Review

A review of Need For Speed 2 from 1997, focused on the Special Edition presented in all its 3dfx Glide mode glory. And it is a downright goofy game when compared to its predecessors! A dozen supercars and one-off concept cars to drive, plus dinosaurs and outhouses.

"Nobody registers WinRAR." So let's register WinRAR! It's notorious for its infinite 40-day trial so I've been curious what activating it is actually like. I also wonder how old of a version of WinRAR can be activated using a 2021 registration key!

The Ad Lib Gold 1000 sound card from 1992 sells for crazy high prices. But why? Let's unbox one and see if it lives up to its legendary reputation by delving into its history, determining why it failed, and seeing how it actually performs on early 90s PC hardware.

I've put off talking about this stack of synthesizers, drum machines, and audio gear for long enough. Let's dive into the main LGR synth setup and what I do with it!

Let's assemble a MIDI RackMountain! The idea is the same as the first MIDI Mountain: combine a bunch of MIDI synths together to make a mountain of musical goodness. But instead of just stacking it all up, this time it's going in an 8U rack-mount case! Plus a few upgrades, like a rack-mounted Roland MT-32, an 8-channel mixer and MIDI thru box, a clicky power strip, and more vintage General MIDI modules. Also a stupid equalizer, ha. ● Grab your Cool Crab stickers and other LGR merch here: https://www.redbubble.com/shop/ap/66209124 ● LGR links: https://www.patreon.com/LazyGameReviews https://www.twitter.com/LazyGameReviews https://www.facebook.com/LazyGameReviews ● Music courtesy of: http://www.epidemicsound.com 00:00 Intro 02:45 Parts Selection 15:57 Build Begins! 24:15 First Tests 27:09 MIDI Keyboarding 30:29 Enjoying the Mountain 44:52 Packing It Up! 46:41 Summary/Outro #LGR #Retro #Technology

Not only was the IBM PalmTop PC 110 the world's tiniest DOS and Windows subnotebook in 1995 but it also functioned as a telephone handset!

It's December! And that means Christmas LGR once again. Also clones, and I think they're getting weirder. As for the game itself, Xmas Ducks 2000 is another Lemmings variant at first glance. But then I played it and yep, this one surprised me! Ducks has some fascinating changes, rather excellent atmosphere... annnnd some really frustrating bits of gameplay.

This is a bit of a different Thrifts in terms of how it came together. With all that's going on I haven't gone out much at all, so there's very little footage here that's recent. I had a decent amount recorded from before March 2020, just not enough for a full episode. So I filled out the video with stuff that didn't make the cut in older episodes! If currents trends are any indication, this will be the final Thrifts video for a while, at least in its usual form. Stores are currently reopening, but I'm not yet comfortable going out traveling all over the region to thrift like I used to.

Can take 10 or more minutes on some CPUs. 10: Copy opengl32.dll from the folder of the same name in the patch archive, paste it into the Doom 3 game folder alongside the main executable for the game 11: Open Doom 3, pressing escape to skip intro videos if needed. Open the options menu, change a setting or two, then apply/save/exit the game 12: Navigate back to "Doom 3\base" folder and open DoomConfig.cfg with a text editor like Notepad 13: Add the line seta r_singlelight “0” to the file, right below the final seta r_ line you see 14: Save the config file, then right-click the file, properties and choose "read only" 15: Open Doom 3 and see if you can start a new game. If not and you see a blank window, continue to the next step 16: Go back to the patch archive and copy the "savegames" folder itself over into the "Doom 3\base" folder 17: Open Doom 3 again and choose "load game," then pick the autosave.

Looking back at the turbo button! Personal computers came with these things for years, then they just disappeared. But they're not forgotten. To clarify further: the turbo button does not overclock your CPU or make it go faster than its intended speed. Even if pressing your turbo button made things faster, that just meant it was allowing you to use your normal CPU speed. The initial function of the turbo button is just a matter of which method the PC booted up in: turbo enabled or disabled. This is what I talked about with the BIOS settings at 03:15. It made sense to have the default boot setting be "turbo disabled" for most manufacturers, because otherwise you'd have lots of people using their computer at a slower speed all the time, not knowing they had to press the turbo button to run with the advertised performance! Turbo buttons are no longer needed because programmers stopped designing software that depended on clock speed to run correctly, and people by and large stopped using older software that still did. There are exceptions to this of course, but for the most part the turbo button ceased being a requirement due to popular software of the late-90's running fine on any CPU. Nowadays, there are games that depend on frame rates to run their physics correctly, but this is another issue entirely. ● Consider supporting LGR on Patreon: http://www.patreon.com/LazyGameReviews ● Social links: https://twitter.com/lazygamereviews http://www.facebook.com/LazyGameReviews ● Music used: "Sydney's Skyline" by ALBIS https://www.youtube.com/audiolibrary/music
