Yup, still interested. It sounds like the right demo to me. The early versions of TLJ had compatitbility issues with NT-based systems, and I don't Think the Swedish language version was ever fixed sadly. While there's a Swedish patch available, It's quite possible it won't work on the demo, since it...

The Longest Journey Swedish Demo?

I wonder if anyone still have the demo version of The Longest Journey in Swedish language? It used to be available from Funcom's FTP server, but was apparently removed when they did a spring cleaning of their FTP earlier this year. I have been unable to locate Another copy anywhere, only finding the...

Yeah, thanks. Do you know if the site is trustworthy? Too bad they don't list the specs for the fan. Would be very useful to know the size of it (in mm). I would guess at 40 mm, though I need to be sure. I've found replacement keyboards for it at misco.se (I've bought stuff from them Before, so I tr...

Extracting "SHARE.SHR" from Blood Shareware?

I wonder what format is the SHARE.SHR Blood Shareware 1.11 install file packed in? I've tried extracting with 7zip and UniExtract, doesn't work. I'm on 64-bit Windows, I can use DOSBox but it doesn't preserve the timestamps on the files as I would like. Any ideas?

Thanks for the tips guys! I actually tried connecting a external keyborad to it. The problem is that the laptop still reads the internal keyboard first, so the CTRL key that's glitching still makes the system mostly unusable, because the comp "Thinks" the key sometimes is pressed down, eve...

Need advice on spare parts for old laptop

I have an old Toshiba Satellite Pro M30 made in December 2003. I really like this computer and would like to be able to use it again, the problem being that some of the parts are starting to break. I Think the fan is busted, since when the computer gets warm, the fan starts to sound very noisy, more...

Ah, nice, I'll have to read that later. But yeah, by the time I found the PM functionality there, I could read your PM. Took me a good while Before I found that at all though, wasn't very obvious. Hope you'll get an answer, it would be very interesting for me too.

Hi Rwolf! Yeah, sorry, I was a bit unclear. I wrote "Century" just so everyone would understand, though infact the Word I learnt was the Swedish "sekel". But I don't really remember what the educational element was. I'm unsure about the age-Group too, since the games we had were ...

DOS or Win 3.1 Swedish edutainment game [Vikingabyn]

I first posted this post at RGB Classic Games, and was suggested to repost this here, so that's what I'll do :) : I remember back when I had recently started school. We got 3 computers with Windows 3.1 and many games, some edutainment games in Swedish. I don't remember much about most of the games u...
