Thank you again. I got the latest drivers for my video card downloaded.
I set it to update through windows while I was downloading and it
screwed it up.. Set it to an earlier driver, and DF crashed everytime I
tried leaving a store. I was tired and just rolled back to the current
driver, and went to bed. I'll be trying the new drivers today, and I
downloaded the free version of moslo.
Very weird.. It's back at the same driver I was (mostly) running it
successfully with, but is dropping me when I try exiting that same
store. I hope the new drivers fix this. But my question is about moslo:
I have to set it to run on a specific program, right? It doesn't just
slow down the whole system? DF starts with a batch, right? Is it.. Wait,
the only program it actually starts is dagger.exe, so I will set moslo
to affect that, yes?
