Save and Restore desktop icon layout!

Playing old games with different resolutions sometimes messes up my desktop layout.
In my desktop I have MY icons disposition, such as games shortcuts on right, "temp" files in the bottom etc... and sometimes after a game session, when I return to the desktop, the icons are all mixed up or grouped to the left.

If you have this problem, download and install for your Windows version the tool Desktop Restore:

Save your layout with Save desktop command and restore it when something goes wrong!

This tool saves my arse!

Fahrenheit: playing

Playing Fahrenheit... awesome. Better than a movie!

Fahrenheit on Windows Vista/7/8/etc... it works

Newcomers... :)

Fahrenheit is an old adventure from 2005/06 by Quantic Dream, yep, the developers of Heavy Rain.
It works like a charm with Windows XP, but I found a lot of problems with Windows 7 and the installer said:

The steps to install it correctly are:


1) Copy the content of the Fahrenheit CD into a new folder on your hard-disk, I created a new folder in the desktop called "ftemp".

2) Download the modified installer from here and replace the original installer with this in you "ftemp" folder.

3) Install Fahrenheit using Setup.exe from "ftemp" folder.

Try to start the game... if it works you have no problem.

Update your game version to 1.1 (if you have the 1.0 version) with this patch:
http://www.hyperpac.de/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/Fahrenheit_Patch1_1.rar

If you have some problem to start the game (like fahrenheit.exe is started, but nothing happens and your cpu is 100% load) google for "Fahrenheit v1.1 [EURO] Fixed EXE" and patch the game with this new patch.

Black screen on start after few seconds? Try to ALT+TAB and return to the game.
I suggest you to look at Video configuration in the Options section to fine tuning the graphic.

Delete the "ftemp" folder after the installation!!

Thanks to Hyperpac.de

P.S.: use a good icon for you desktop shortcut like

(it's bigger when you save it on your HD)

Ok, installed... next step is to PLAY (but now I'm busy with Drakan :P).

Drakan: the Order of the Flame on Windows Vista/7/...

Drakan: the Order of the Flame is an old game developed by now defunct Psygnosis in the 1999.
The main character, Rynn, looks a bit like Lara Croft (yeah, the 1999 is the year of Tomb Raider: The Last Revelation) and Julie "FAKK2" from Heavy Metal FAKK2 (2000 here and here).

Take a look

Does it work on Windows Vista/Seven in the 2013? Yes!! 
A little bug appears after installing and trying to play: if you select the game difficulty the game crashes.

These are the steps to fix the bug:

1) update your game with this patch (drakan_patch445_eng.zip)*;
2) press and hold Shift while starting the game (yes, double-click and push&hold Shift to activate the Configurator);
3) the Configurator pops up and you can see a new tab "Developer";
4) select the new tab and active the "Developer mode".
5) launch Drakan and start a new game, you can select the level (don't cheat!), select "Ruin village" (the level are not in the right order to play!)

If you have other problems set the .exe of the game in the compatibility mode with W98/Me.
* If the patch file 404'd google the filename or try http://d01.megashares.com/dl/M6yHDDT/drakan_patch445_eng.zip

So... let's play!
