Quite simply.

You lack skill.

PFFFT.

You're just mad because you have no 1337 skills.



Thats why original nes was so 1337. You had to have 1337 skills to get the games to load.

I gots a 75MGZ (Now I am just doing it to piss Jon off) 486 DX, 24MB RAM, 500MB HD, 640x480 10" LCD laptop.

It's an IBM, and that thing is freakin sweet. The keyboard is too wide to fit under the screen, so they made the keyboard split and slide up and over the other part of the keyboard when you close the screen. It's trippin'.

It's also a damn nice computer for playing DOS games, and if you stroke it really nicely in the right places, it'll run JK for you at 320x200.

have you tried the classic cartridge wiggle (where you wiggle the cartridge while it's still pressed down then turn the system back on)

I will say that mine doesn't work with the cartridge all the way in. My trick is to slide the cartridge out as far as I can while still letting the spring press down, so it's just scraping the housing. That plus lung power usually does the trick.

I've found that putting the Game Genie on also works pretty well.

From what I've heard, Game Genie ruins the pins of the cartridges. The sound of Game Genie being attached to a game is a painful grind.

I dunno.

My computer from late 97, was about the same as yours. Just 350 MHz, and an 8 Gig drive. I gave it way a bit ago. Seriously though, why not buy something a tad newer?I mean, you could go pick through garbage bins behind PC repair stores and put together something way better than that.

WAHHH MY PARENTS DON'T LIKE ME WAHHHH.


I'm convinced your parents won't buy you a new computer because you have yet to prove that you are mature enough for a "big boy" computer.


And seriously. If I did everything my parents told me.. Well... shiiiit.
