Wolvereen Posted August 30, 2003 Share Posted August 30, 2003 Works perfect for me. I have it set to highest render. Its beautiful, normal speed, and doesn't crash. I am on a P4 3.2 H though...

+BeLGaRaTh Subscriber¹ Posted August 30, 2003 Subscriber¹ Share Posted August 30, 2003 Had a look at it, all the presets seem the same to me, plus its sort of un-interesting ...

QuarterSwede Posted August 31, 2003 Share Posted August 31, 2003 Awesome screensavers (Flurry and Nostalgia). I'd been looking for OSX screensaver ports recently too. God Bless Neowin!

MikeN Posted August 31, 2003 Share Posted August 31, 2003 Awsome! Just the other day I was in PC World admiring this screensaver on the Macs and commenting that I would like to get my hands on a Windows version. :D Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/97445-windows-port-of-flurry-screensaver/page/2/#findComment-1120237 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adster01 Posted August 31, 2003 Share Posted August 31, 2003 If you're using Windows XP (2000 may do this too), then you are getting BSOD errors whilst the "automatically restart with BSODs" option is enabled lol. I can't remember how to disable it, sorry I had one of the original versions of this screesaver installed a few months ago. It seemed to work fine. Perhaps it is a problem with Nvidia's latest driver revision? It is a OpenGL screensaver right?

Adster01 Posted August 31, 2003 Share Posted August 31, 2003 HA! Fixed my problem. I unistalled my Nvidia drivers and ran a detonator destroyer.

Tim Dorr Veteran Posted August 31, 2003 Veteran Share Posted August 31, 2003 Hey, everyone try this out with vital desktop: http://www.vital-desktop.com/download.php Runs great as my background and doesn't even touch the processor. Plus, the fade away effect makes it *really* cool :D Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/97445-windows-port-of-flurry-screensaver/page/2/#findComment-1121381 Share on other sites More sharing options...
TwiztedCam Posted August 31, 2003 Share Posted August 31, 2003 i had the same problem with the screensaver not working or going really slow... just update ur video card drivers. Hey, thanks man. I never wanted to update to the detanator drivers because it screwed up my screen width and height. But it solved the slow problem, and the width and height problem didn't happen.

aristotle-dude Posted September 6, 2003 Share Posted September 6, 2003 This screen saver will run extremely slow on your PC if your gfx card driver does not have hardware support for Open GL. That is what I liked about my Nvidia card when I had my PC, it had great Open GL support. I don't know what that one guy was talking about because this screen saver runs smooth on my 12" pbook and my eMac. I tried this screensaver at work on a P4 2.4 Ghz machine and it gave me about 3 fps. :p It only has onboard Intel chipset video.
