我一個人住
主唱：蘇慧倫
作詞：陳家麗 作曲：李宗盛
你要獨處的時候 我就是孤獨
你在微笑的時候 我就是幸福
親愛的我的溫柔你怎麼記得住
我從來沒有在你面前哭
你去流浪的時候 我也被放逐
你想說謊的時候 我變成賭注
親愛的我的溫柔你怎麼記得住
在你身邊我像影子一樣模糊
在你的世界裡 我一個人住
你認為甜蜜 我覺得痛苦
你曾說過愛情應該是無條件的付出 OH….
到最後還是我一個人住
跟你的腳步 我迷了路
我很難對自己交代清楚
因為我在乎

Old games playing….
Posted earlier for free Command and Conquer, been busy playing it after work, is just so good to play these old games…
Found that many older games does not work under Windows XP, so I search for some solution online, and it came out with a few tricks for us to once more enjoy these great games on XP/Vista:
1/: Remember to select “Compatibility mode” by right click the exe, Properties, Compatibility, in “Compatibility mode”, select “Windows 95”, also select “Disable visual themes” and “Turn off advance text input services for this program.”
2/: Many of these older games do still have updates, update to the latest version is also a good idea.
(latest? haha, some of the patches were released in 1999)
3/: Not that much warez related, once upon a time many hackers release no-cd patch to older games, the main reason of these no-cd patch was to speed game load up time with game data copied to HDD, and of coz, warez issue (1CD everyone play).
In our case, cd protection used in some older game fails to work under Windows XP, example SimCity 3000 (not the Unlimited edition), due to the strong CD protection it does not work under XP, and no-cd patch fix the problem.
(Think same as CnC RedAlert 2)
4/: If all fail, try Virtual PC with a minimum Win9X install, as these older games do only require very very limited CPU resources in today’s standard, they should run fine.
(Like I was playing SimCity 2000, I remember it was released in the 486 age, was it 33MHz?)
Running SimCity 2000 under a Dual-Core 1.8 GHz CPU with 2GB of RAM is just…………..fast…..
One thing I would like is running these older game in Window mode instead of the full screen mode, which I cannot seems to be able to get this work. (I do still check email, IM-ing, while playing the game….), and other than the VPC solution I can’t seems to be able to find and working solution, anyone got some good idea?
Download original CnC FREE!
No, this is not warez, it is legal download from EA!
For celebrating CnC 12th Anniversary, EA is now given out this great game for free in download ISO format. (Wonder why don’t they provide a BT seed, speed things up a lot..)
I remember spending days and nights on this game in early 1996!!!
There is some tweak to get it working under XP, but I think it shouldn’t be too hard..
Get it now from EA!

Ajax theo’s weblog?
I do lots of AJAX related coding at work and for other projects, I begin to see more and more DHTML, AJAX used in blog systems, should I recode Theo’s weblog in AJAX and more DHTML? or taking good care of older users on WebPro?
Time to do some more coding on the Weblog, to be or not to be….
When I first develop this Weblog back in 2004, it was never meant to be a big log, it was just a for fun developing… (Please see Finally, Theo’s web log is up.)
In the past few years, the log has grown into larger size, and more functions…
Due to limitation of ENV when I develop this weblog, SQL is not an option, so XML was used for the whole site, and now when I am would like to introduce more new functions to the it, I found that it gets harder and harder to work with..
Thinks maybe it is time to again re-code on it with SQL….
To be or not to be…..hum….time is always against us…
Changing search engine used in frontpage of PocketIE
On the i600 default front page of PIE, there is a quick search input field for user to quick search their query.
It was set to use Microsoft Live search engine, which of coz, I prefer Google as my search engine more.
So if you want to search like what I prefer, here is the Registry key you need:
HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftInternet ExplorerMainSearch Page
The default setting for using Microsoft Live is:
Original MS Live setting.
http://mobile.live.com/search/results.aspx?q=%s
For using Google:
New Google search setting.
http://www.google.com/search?q=%s
You can even add more query options to it for Google search, if you want to know more please search for Google hacks.
