Problem with blank walls in Vista

That's for programs that are actually designed to work in windows systems. No user-specific config files or data there, only the actual program.

For angband this is not the case, so install things somewhere else. I have different angband versions in my data disk in \games\angband\

So, I've unpacked the Angband folder into <username>\Downloads , edited font-win - and it works! Thank you everybody!

Now I have hashes for walls. Lateron I'm going to try the other workarounds to see whether I can have solid blocks for walls instead.

+1. Although I never log on as root in Linux, I *always* log in as Administrator in Windows. It's just too painful not to.

The difference is that root privileges are VERY rarely needed in Linux, because it's much much better designed. In Windows I need them every five minutes.

Really? To do what?

I believe that you two are just stuck to old Win95 behavior. Or the programs you try to use are stuck to Win95 behavior.

I must admit back in 95 I was still playing with an old IBM computer, playing dos games, so I'm perhaps a couple years (more like a decade) behind the current norm.
