i dont know how to solve your problem other than the answer will be on the control panel of your pc no doubt. can anyone find a download of arkanoid 2 but the atari st or amiga version? if they do they will repped to heaven.

right-click anywhere random on your desktop, choose properties, choose the third tab (dunno what it says in english but i guess "screensaver"?) , then choose "energy" or whatever it says where the image of the globe is. that's where you can change your system sleep/stand-by settings.

...And last but not least, get a priest to exorcise satan from your computer like pork suggested.

get a mac

just kidding

no, maybe change your settings so that your pc doesn't go to standby after thirty minutes, i can change the settings on my ibook so that it never automatically goes into standby...should be possible on your pc too

for jon boy, this site claims to have it for download, but you have to sign up so i don't know if they really do.

anyway, i reckon it shouldn't be too hard to find if you google for amiga +arkanoid 2 +emulator or some smilar terms.

jon boy · 02.16.2007, 09:06 AM

To be specific, you go into control panel, and into power options.
