  1. Random Images With Image Mapping?

    09 May 2014 - 10:45 PM

    Alright, so after several attempts and ultimately failing at trying to figure out what must surely be a rather simple coding task, I was wondering if any fine folk here would be so kind to help me in the endeavour of inserting a random image code on my website which would change the displayed image upon page reload, but at the same time would also incorporate each aforementioned image with image link mapping.

    Any and all assistance with this would be much appreciated and is somewhat although not pressingly urgent, as I have been meaning to beef up the aesthetics and functionality of my website for quite a prolonged time, with this being a key part of it. Many thanks in advance. :)/

    As a side note, a search online did not produce any results for pre-existing and tutorial-inclusive coding for both randomisation and mapping purposes. I did try, but no cigar. ^o^
  2. How to play audio directly from a program to a live streaming service?

    06 August 2012 - 07:40 PM

    Basically, I'd like to know the best way to directly play audio from a program (In most cases, it'll probably be Kega Fusion.) to a live streaming service like Omegle or blogTV. Unfortunately, I'm one of those people who does not have a "Stereo Mixer" in the Playback and/or Recording devices sections of the Sound options. I've tried context clicking and selecting "Show Disabled Devices" and "Show Disconnected Devices", but no show.

    I've searched around on Google, however I couldn't find what I need that is free or won't cost much money. I've heard about possible free ways of getting Stereo Mixer by changing what audio drivers you have, but I'm unsure of whether attempting to do so could screw up my audio somehow.

    Any suggestions or advice on this are much appreciated. My operating system is Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium, 64-bit, Service Pack 1.

    Edit: Something I should have said here before - I also want the ability to be able to hear both the audio I'm streaming, as well as the audio from the other person I am streaming to. The other people I'm streaming to should also be able to hear both my voice as well as, for example, audio from a game I'm playing.
  3. Computer Problems 2.0

    25 March 2012 - 12:41 PM

    I'm having computer problems yet again. Brilliant(!) So, let's get right into the details.


    Problem A:

    9 out of 10 times, whenever I start my computer and log on to my account, I have to disable and then re-enable my Local Area Connection in order for the Local Area Connection to work.

    Otherwise, it defaults to just detecting the Wireless Network connection, which is obviously not what I want.

    I've had this problem both in my current Windows 7 installation and my previous one.


    Problem B:

    This problem is extremely fucking irritating. For some weird reason, I can no longer play Grand Theft Auto: Episodes From Liberty City or Need for Speed Carbon without the threat of my monitor completely blacking out and going on standby mode. When this happens, the audio also cuts off. I can only play games for 5 to 10 minutes until my monitor decides to say ‘fuck it’ and goes into standby mode.

    I doubt that many any other games would also work without encountering this issue. I haven't tried yet. (Although the KEGA Fusion emulator is an exception that works absolutely fine, both full screen and windowed. The monitor blackouts seem to affect any games that are directly powered by NVIDIA in some shape or form.)

    The only (and I mean THE ONLY WAY) to remedy this is to either force a restart of the computer via the restart button on the computer tower, or force a shut down and turn on via the computer tower power button, or switch off and switch on at the mains. Control, Alt & Delete, and any other keyboard commands you can think of do not work. Ejecting the game disk also has no effect whatsoever. Additionally, switching the monitor on and off via both the monitor itself or the mains, and disconnecting and reconnecting the power cable at the back of the monitor also does not do anything.

    These blackouts NEVER happen once when not playing NVIDIA powered games.

    This is a problem that I did not have whatsoever in my previous installation. This only started happening as soon as I started playing NVIDIA powered games using my current Windows 7 installation. It is very weird that I have got this new problem, as previously I did not have any problems like this at all. The last time I had any issues with NVIDIA powered games, it was BlueScreen related....


    Problem C:

    Today, my computer has one again encountered a BlueScreen error. How lovely!

    It is once again a PFN_LIST_CORRUPT error, which I have previously had many times in past Windows installations. According to BlueScreenView, afd.sys, ndis.sys and ntoskrnl.exe are directly involved in the BlueScreen error. I was rendering something in 1080p H.D. in Sony Vegas Pro at the time the BlueScreen occured, by the way.

    This is the first time that I have encountered a BlueScreen error in my current Windows 7 installation.

    I've had this problem both in my current Windows 7 installation and my previous one.



    So obviously as you can see my computer is pretty much fucked up the ass with numerous problems, and combining all the issues together it is overall an exceptionally frustrating experience using my computer.

    If I come to the conclusion that I can't get these three problems fixed via help from fellow Sonic Retro members (I wouldn't blame you though.), I guess I'm left with no option other than to take my computer into a computer shop. It'll cost money but if it's needed in order to get it fixed, so be it.

    Finally, I'd like to make it very clear that I have NOT ONCE overclocked any of my hardware whatsoever.

    Furthermore, between my previous Windows 7 installation and my current Windows 7 installation, I DID NOT open up my computer tower and change/replace/fiddle with any hardware at all.


    I apologise if I sound rather annoying, but honestly my computer is seriously putting my patience on the last straw.

    While I was using some of my previous Windows installations, I made a topic a long time ago when I was having severe BlueScreen error problems. I greatly appreciated all the extensive effort and time that many Sonic Retro members put in to try and help me solve my previous computer issues. Seriously, I'm still very thankful for that. :thumbsup:



    Here are some of my computer specifications:

    Of course, I'll be more than happy to provide additional information from elsewhere in my system if need be.



    I would really appreciate any help or assistance whatsoever that could possibly get my computer working properly again. As always, many thanks in advance! :)
  4. BlueScreen Errors

    20 April 2011 - 11:00 AM

    Okay, I've been using Windows Vista Home Premium on my computer for at least two years, and can safely say it's a piece of shit operating system.

    Performance issues, way too many compatibility problems, and randomly having certain programs go into "not responding" or "stopped working" mode periodically (Programs which never did this once when I used Windows XP Professional on my old computer.) really annoy me, but not nearly as much as when Windows Vista decides to BlueScreen on me for no apparent logical reason.

    Over the past 8 months or so, the BlueScreen errors have been getting more and more common, to the point where I cannot fucking stand it any more. I desperately want to uninstall Vista and replace it with Windows 7 Ultimate, but I just cannot afford it, and quite frankly I'd rather not use a free cracked/hacked/whatever version of it, in case Windows Updates don't work, or I get "not genuine" related issues, or what have you.

    The most common BlueScreen error I get is DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL, although I occasionally get a PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA error, too. When I first got Windows Vista with my new computer, there were no BlueScreens for a good 9 to 10 months, but then I suddenly started to get them on the odd occasion. I hoped that they would go away, and maybe updates from Windows Update would fix them for me, but no. It's just got more and more common over time, and now, I've seriously had enough. I've never had BlueScreen errors happen so much with any Microsoft O.S. other than Vista. I don't honestly know how Microsoft could fuck up an operating system so much. It seems most of the apparent "security and stability updates" I've been installing have not been helping improve my system at all. If anything, those updates have made Vista more bloated, unreliable, and laggy. (The time it takes me to log on is appallingly slow.)

    I am simply looking for a definite solution to fix -- or at the very least -- significantly tone down the likelihood of Vista BlueScreening on my computer. It usually only happens when I'm playing a game, using Skype, or rendering something in Sony Vegas Pro. On very rare occasions, I've had BlueScreens occur when simply browsing the Internet using Firefox.

    I've already searched on Google, and also Microsoft's website, but I couldn't really find any solutions to my problems. It could be a fault on my part, but a lot of me thinks the BlueScreens are down to Vista's crappyness.

    I'm running on 3.00 GB of RAM, 32-bit Windows Vista Service Pack 2, with an AMD Athlon™ 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 6000+ at 3.12 GHz. My computer brand is ASUS.

    So, yeah. Any help or advice on this would be extremely appreciated, thanks. I'm sick and tired of these errors beyond belief.
  5. How do you obtain .RXL patches?

    11 March 2009 - 06:01 PM

    So yeah, where can I get the correct .RXL patch which I am looking for? Tried Google search, but found nothing useful.

    Thanks for any help. :) I'm new to ROM hacking, RXL patches and the like.
