If I stop any of the 2 zquest files(zquest and zelda) it leaves 0 byte useless files.
Does that happen to other people too or is it just something only I have?
It's kinda annoying deleting them everyday...

Yeah. Happens to me too. Files like "s3vva7dj" or "s3qst413" appear from nowhere.

not on the hard drive but they take up visual space in the c drive menu...which really sux...cuz my parents freak out easily about "odd occurences' in our computer...like my mom freaked out today cuz the internet explorer would suddenly close on her and it happened several times & she blamed it on me...anyway..yeah, i still think its annoying though

Yeah, it's kind of annoying. Fortunetly, it got fixed. Sometimes, I even see weirder stuff in there. Jeez, I hate these kinds of slip-ups. Harmless, but annoying as hell, more annoying than the harmful ones.

Heh heh! Yeah. It was especially fun to watch the title sequence with the default Vsync on.

I suppose you've never had your hdd wiped by an Assembly program gone berzerk? I typed in ONE WRONG DIGIT in an interrupt call while doing low-level disk I/O... needless to say I was not amused. I also had a friend whose monitor caught fire after he'd improperly reprogrammed the VGA register (again in Assembly.) Guess he cranked that refresh rate up a little too high... :sb:

Ah... the times when the programmer was supreme master, with no second guessing by the OS, no Winblows...
