Arrgghhh!!, installation boohooo..

What a crap day today, my effort to repeatedly install a webcam for my projects ended up in a failure. Its a night vision webcam. However after googled around the internet looks like 90% user also was in the same shoes as i am. Everyone put 200% effort to install at high IQ level but it seems that end user not to blame. I found out its just the manufacturer of the products itself was to blame. All webcam for PC seems to be a part of "quickie" production. Those maunfacturer likes to release products without testing and ended up the user because the free test animal. The only webcam for computer that works 100% was on notebook. I would like to share all the manufacturer "the finger" for making webcam a piece of $hi7 products. Webcam = crap gimmick. At the end of the day i use my old battered Nokia into modded webcam, through third party software it worked!

Cool!! Windows XP for Playstation Portable.


I've stumble upon cool file for PSP as i was looking for easy and quick mods for my PSP, its "PSP Wxp" or better known as Playstation Portable Windows XP. Installation was fairly simple, Windows XP interface accessible via internet browser and all GUI and application accessible very similarly to Windows XP basic application which almost looks like PDA, eg, basic calculator, notepad, games, setup panel just like a protable Windows Mobile PDA interface. Its cool to have this software for PSP as eye candy and its safe. The file is very small and will not harm any internal firmware or software structure in your PSP. I give it a 4 thumbs up for those people who want to have Windows XP like portable PC.
Below some info about PSP Windows XP from the software author:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PspWxp stands for PlayStation Portable Windows XP (based off of winpsportal) and allows you to use Windows XP on your Playstation Portable. Well, really it is just a set of Webpages that look similar to Windows XP, but they are offline. It has some useful features lots of games and applications. You do not need to access the Internet for most of pspWxp, only to access the links and use the Web browser.
As it is only 1.5 Megabytes in size, it will fit on any memory card. pspWxp will not harm your PSP. Version 1.02 does not show previous app/game on starting a new app/game, fixed music menu button, five card stud poker slightly changed and bug fixes.

Annoying error!

This is getting annoying! Was it my DirectX installation problem, display driver, over poly on X3-SIXTY or something wrong with 4x4evo2 installation.
